Answer:

Acceleration, a=6.51\times 10^{10}\ m/s^2                                                

Explanation:

Given that,

Electric field, E = 680 N/C

Speed of the proton, v = 1.3 Mm/s

We need to find the acceleration of the proton. We know that the force due to motion is balanced by the electric force as :

qE=ma

a and m are the acceleration and mass of the proton.

a=\dfrac{qE}{m}

a=\dfrac{1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 680}{1.67\times 10^{-27}}

a=6.51\times 10^{10}\ m/s^2

So, the acceleration of the proton is a=6.51\times 10^{10}\ m/s^2. Hence, this is the required solution.

The de Broglie wavelength of an electron traveling at 7.0 x 107m/s is 1.0 x 10-11m. (Remember that me = 9.1 x 10-31kg and h = 6.
ivolga24 [154]

The De Broglie's wavelength of a particle is given by:

\lambda=\frac{h}{p}

where

h=6.6 \cdot 10^{-34} Js is the Planck constant

p is the momentum of the particle


In this problem, the momentum of the electron is equal to the product between its mass and its speed:

p=m_e v=(9.1 \cdot 10^{-31} kg)(7.0 \cdot 10^7 m/s)=6.4 \cdot 10^{-23} kg m/s

and if we substitute this into the previous equation, we find the De Broglie wavelength of the electron:

\lambda=\frac{h}{p}=\frac{6.6 \cdot 10^{-34} Js}{6.4 \cdot 10^{-23} kg m/s}=1.0 \cdot 10^{-11} m


So, the answer is True.

Two cars leave Calgary at the same time, travelling in opposite directions. Their average speeds differ by 5 km/h. After 2 h, th
dimulka [17.4K]
Let the first car's average speed be x

The second car's speed would be x+5

2(x+(x+5))=210

2x+5=105

2x=100

x=50

So the speed of the slower car is 50mph, and the speed of the faster car is 55mph

A stationary siren creates an 894 Hz
valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

12.3 m/s

Explanation:

The Doppler equation describes how sound frequency depends on relative velocities:

fr = fs (c + vr)/(c + vs),

where fr is the frequency heard by the receiver,

fs is the frequency emitted at the source,

c is the speed of sound,

vr is the velocity of the receiver,

and vs is the velocity of the source.

Note: vr is positive if the receiver is moving towards the source, negative if away.

Conversely, vs is positive if the receiver is moving away from the source, and negative if towards.

Given:

fs = 894 Hz

fr = 926 Hz

c = 343 m/s

vs = 0 m/s

Find: vr

926 = 894 (343 + vr) / (343 + 0)

vr = 12.3

The speed of the car is 12.3 m/s.

Answer:

it is a light receptor that generates nerve signals that are sent to the brain

Explanation:

the lens are like the glasses, this means that is used to see things better. You just put them in your eye and that's all it's not connected to the brain
