a) 0.261 T

b) this field strength is obtainable with today's technology

Explanation:

a)

The force experienced by a charged particle moving perpendicular to a magnetic field is given by

F=qvB

where

q is the charge

v is the velocity

B is the strength of the field

This force is perpendicular to the motion of the particle, which therefore moves in a circular path; and so, this force acts as centripetal force, so we can write:

qvB=m\frac{v^2}{r}

where

m is the mass of the particle

r is the radius of the circle

In this problem, we have:

q=1.6\cdot 10^{-19}C (magnitude of the charge of antiprotons)

v=5.00 \cdot 10^7 m/s (velocity)

m=1.67\cdot 10^{-27}kg (mass of antiprotons)

r = 2.00 m (radius)

Therefore, we can re-arrange the equation and solve to find B, the magnetic field strength:

B=\frac{mv}{qr}=\frac{(1.67\cdot 10^{-27})(5.00\cdot 10^7)}{(1.6\cdot 10^{-19})(2.00)}=0.261 T

B)

The strength of the magnetic field calculated in part A) is

B=0.261 T

This is indeed a very strong magnetic field. In fact, by comparison, the Earth's magnetic field has a strength of about

B_{earth}=5\cdot 10^{-5} T

However, there are current technologies available that are able to produce such strong fields. For instance, the superconducting magnets in the LHC (Large Hadron Collider) are able to produce magnetic fields of strength up to 8 Tesla (8 T).

Therefore, we can say that this field strength is obtainable with today's technology.

When calculating the power bill, power companies use _____.
Dovator [93]
I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option B. When calculating the power bill, power companies use kilowatt-hours. This unit is a derived unit of energy equal to 3.6 MJ. If energy is being transmitted or used at a constant rate (power) over a period of time, the total energy in kilowatt-hours is the product of the power in kilowatts and the time.

What is the form of energy that is produced in all energy transformations?
Damm [24]

Answer: Long Answer...

Explanation: Most of the time, chemical energy is released in the form of heat, and this transformation from chemical energy to heat, or thermal energy, is called an exothermic reaction. Next, there are two main types of mechanical energy: kinetic energy and potential energy.

Debido al desorden en el laboratorio un científico tiene 2 termómetros diferentes pero no sabe en qué escalas están por lo que d
just olya [345]

Answer:

La escala del termómetro ''A'' es grados Celsius.

La escala del termómetro ''B'' es grados Fahrenheit.

Explanation:

Para hallar en qué escalas están los termómetros partimos de que la mezcla a la cuál se midió su temperatura mantuvo su temperatura constante.

Esto quiere decir que los termómetros están expresando la misma temperatura pero en una escala distinta.

Sabemos que dada una temperatura en grados Celsius ''C'' si la queremos convertir a grados Fahrenheit ''F'' debemos utilizar la siguiente ecuación :

F=(\frac{9}{5})C+32 (I)

Ahora, si reemplazamos y asumimos que la temperatura de 18° es en grados Celsius, entonces si reemplazamos C=18 en la ecuación (I) deberíamos obtener F=64.4 ⇒

F=(\frac{9}{5}).(18)+32=32.4+32=64.4

Efectivamente obtenemos el valor esperado. Finalmente, corroboramos que la temperatura del termómetro ''A'' está medida en grados Celsius y la temperatura del termómetro ''B'' en grados Fahrenheit.
