Answer:

a)N = 3.125 * 10¹¹

b) I(avg)  = 2.5 × 10⁻⁵A

c)P(avg) = 1250W

d)P = 2.5 × 10⁷W

Explanation:

Given that,

pulse current is 0.50 A

duration of pulse Δt = 0.1 × 10⁻⁶s

a) The number of particles equal to the amount of charge in a single pulse divided by the charge of a single particles

N = Δq/e

charge is given by Δq = IΔt

so,

N = IΔt / e

N = \frac{(0.5)(0.1 * 10^-^6)}{(1.6 * 10^-^1^9)} \\= 3.125 * 10^1^1

N = 3.125 * 10¹¹

b) Q = nqt

where q is the charge of 1puse

n = number of pulse

the average current is given as I(avg) = Q/t

I(avg) = nq

I(avg) = nIΔt

         = (500)(0.5)(0.1 × 10⁻⁶)

         = 2.5 × 10⁻⁵A

C)  If the electrons are accelerated to an energy of 50 MeV, the acceleration voltage must,

eV = K

V = K/e

the power is given by

P = IV

P(avg) = I(avg)K / e

P(avg) = \frac{(2.5 * 10^-^5)(50 * 10^6 . 1.6 * 10^-^1^9)}{1.6 * 10^-^1^9}

= 1250W

d) Final peak=

P= Ik/e

= = P(avg) = \frac{(0.5)(50 * 10^6 . 1.6 * 10^-^1^9)}{1.6 * 10^-^1^9}\\2.5 * 10^7W

P = 2.5 × 10⁷W

At high speeds, a particular automobile is capable of an acceleration of about 0.540 m/s^2. At this rate, how long (in seconds)
Mama L [17]

Answer:

t = 6.68 seconds

Explanation:

The acceleration of the automobile, a=0.54\ m/s^2

Initial speed of the automobile, u = 91 km/hr = 25.27 m/s

Final speed of the automobile, v = 104 km/hr = 28.88 m/s

Let t is the time taken to accelerate from u to v. It can be calculated as the following formula as :

t=\dfrac{v-u}{a}

t=\dfrac{28.88-25.27}{0.54}

t = 6.68 seconds

So, the time taken by the automobile to accelerate from u to v is 6.68 seconds. Hence, this is the required solution.

A conveyor belt is used to move sand from one place to another in a factory. The conveyor is tilted at an angle of 18° above the
brilliants [131]

Answer:

x = 2.044 m

Explanation:

given data

initial vertical component of velocity = Vy = 2sin18

initial horizontal component of velocity = Vx = 2cos18

distance from the ground yo = 5m

ground distance y = 0

from equation of motion

y = yo+ V_y t +\frac{1}{2}gt^2

0 = 5 + 2sin18+ \frac{1}{2}*9.8t^2

solving for t

t = 1.075 sec

for horizontal motion

x = V_x t

x = 2cos18*1.075

x = 2.044 m

How are the mass and weight of an object related? Include a description with words and an equation.
nikdorinn [45]
The weight is the force experienced, whereas the mass represents the actual quantity of matter inside a body..
weigh on the surface of the earth is equal to mg
mass is m
and at the centre weight is 0 due to 0 acceleration that's 0 g
but mass is always constant and remains m, no matter where you are

What is the mass of an object that weighs 686N on Earth?
Oxana [17]

Answer:

70 kg is the mass of the object

Explanation:

This question can be solved with this simple formula:

Weight force = mass . gravity

686 N = mass . 9.8 m/s²

686 N /  9.8 m/s² = mass → 70 kg

Note → 1N = 1 kg . m / s²
