An electron is released from rest in a weak electric field given by vector E = -1.30 10-10 N/C ĵ. After the electron has travel
Murljashka [212]

Answer:

v =  6.45 10⁻³ m / s

Explanation:

Electric force is

               F = q E

Where q is the charge and E is the electric field

Let's use Newton's second law to find acceleration

                F- W = m a

               a = F / m - g

               a = q / m E  g

Let's calculate

               a = -1.6 10⁻¹⁹ / 9.1 10⁻³¹ (-1.30 10⁻¹⁰) - 9.8

              a = 0.228 10² -9.8

              a=  13.0 m / s²

Now we can use kinematics, knowing that the resting parts electrons

              v² = v₀² + 2 a y

              v =√ (0 + 2 13.0 1.6 10⁻⁶)

            v =  6.45 10⁻³ m / s

Why is salt water a better conductor of electricity than river water?
Tamiku [17]

Answer: The conductivity of water depends on the concentration of dissolved ions in solution. ... This is because the Sodium Chloride salt dissociates into ions. Hence sea water is about a million times more conductive than fresh water.

You have two golf balls that differ only in their surfaces. one has dimples, while the other is smooth. if you were to drop the
il63 [147K]

Answer: the golf ball with smooth surface would hit the ground first.


Jusitification:


An analysis of forces show two vertical forces acting on the golf balls.


1) one force is the weight (mg) which is vertical downward


2) the other force is the drag force exerted by the air on the golf balls, and it is vertical upward.


3) the drag force opposes the weight, so the acceleration downward is determined by the difference of the weiight and the drag force, until the balls reach the terminal speed (when the drag force equals the weight).


4) the drag force depends on the shape and area of the object falling. Being the surface of one ball smooth implies that the drag force will be less than the one on the other ball.


5) less drag force implies that the terminal velocity of the smooth ball will he higher, ant then it will hit the ground first.
