The classic Millikan oil-drop experiment was the first to obtain an accurate measurement of the charge on an electron. In it, oi

l drops were suspended against the gravitational force by a vertical electric field.
Consider an oil drop with a weight of 2.5 x 10⁻¹⁴ N, if the drop has a single excess electron, find the magnitude (in N/C) of the electric field needed to balance its weight. Your should round your answer to an integer, indicate only the number, do not include the unit.

Answer:

156250 N/C

Explanation:

weight of drop, W = 2.5 x 10^-14 N

charge of drop, q = 1.6 x 10^-19 C

Let the electric field is E.

Weight is balanced by the electrostatic force

W = qE

2.5 x 10^-14 = 1.6 x 10^-19 x E

E = 156250 N/C

Answer:

1.56\times 10^5 N/C        

Explanation:

The electric field that will balance the weight of the oil drop can be calculated using the following:

electric force, F = e E ( where, e is the charge of an electron and E is the electric field)

weight, W = 2.5 ×10⁻¹⁴ N

e E = W

E =\frac{W}{e}

Substitute the values:

E =\frac{ 2.5 \times 10^{-14} N}{1.6\times10^{-19}C}= 1.56\times 10^5 N/C

The emf is induced in the wire will be 1.56 ×10 ⁻³ V. The induced emf is the product of the magnetic field,velocity and length of the wire.

<h3>What is induced emf?</h3>

Emf is the production of a potential difference in a coil as a result of changes in the magnetic flux passing through it.

When the flux coupling with a conductor or coil changes, electromotive Force, or EMF, is said to be induced.

The given data in the problem is;

B is the magnitude of the magnetic field,= 5.0 ×10⁻⁵ T

V(velocity)=125 M/SEC

L(length)=25 cm=0.25 m

The maximum emf is found as;

E=VBLsin90°

E=125 × 5.0 × 10⁻⁵ ×0.25

E=1.56 ×10 ⁻³ V

Hence, the emf is induced in the wire will be 1.56 ×10 ⁻³ V

If displacement covered by a particle is zero then distance cover by it<br>​
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

When displacement is zero, the particle may be at rest, therefore, distance travelled = 0.

Again, when displacement is zero, the final position matches with the initial position after some time, but the distance travelled will not be zero.

An ice cream truck is going 25m/s to the East. It accelerates to 45m/s in the same direction over 5s. What is its acceleration?
Naya [18.7K]

Hello!

We can use the kinematic equation:
a = \frac{v_f - v_i}{t}

a = acceleration (m/s²)

vf = final velocity (45 m/s)
vi = initial velocity (25 m/s)

t = time (5 sec)

Plug in the givens:
a = \frac{45-25}{5} = \frac{20}{5} = \boxed{4 m/s^2}

timurjin [86]

Answer:

f_{o} = 391.67 Hz

Explanation:

The sound of lowest frequency which is produced by a vibrating sting is called its fundamental frequency (f_{o}).

The For a vibrating string, the fundamental frequency (f_{o}) can be determined by:

f_{o} = \frac{v}{2L}

Where v is the speed of waves of the string, and L is the length of the string.

L = 42.0 cm = 0.42 m

v = 329 m/s

f_{o} = \frac{329}{2*0.42}

   = \frac{329}{0.84}

f_{o} = 391.6667 Hz

The fundamental frequency of the string is 391.67 Hz.

A special triangular frame is being made for a piece of artwork. The the base of the triangular frame must be 90 cm. If the area
Mashutka [201]

Answer:

Explanation:

base of triangular frame, b = 90 cm

Area, A = 765 cm²

Let the height is h.

Area of a triangular frame = 1/2 x base x height

765 = 0.5 x 90 x h

h = 17 cm

Thus, the height of triangular frame is 17 cm.
