Answer:

a_y = 4.9\ m/s^2

Explanation:

Given,

Width of rectangular tank, b = 1 m

Length of the tank, l = 2 m

height of the tank, d = 1.5 m

Depth of gasoline on the tank, h = 1 m

\dfrac{dz}{dy}=-\dfrac{1.5-1}{1}

\dfrac{dz}{dy}=-0.5

The differential form with the acceleration

\dfrac{dz}{dy}=\dfrac{-a_y}{a_z + g}

-0.5=-\dfrac{a_y}{a_z + g}

acceleration in z-direction = 0 m/s²

g = 9.8 m/s²

a_y is the horizontal acceleration of the gasoline.

0.5=\dfrac{a_y}{0 + 9.8}

a_y = 9.8\times 0.5

a_y = 4.9\ m/s^2

Hence, Horizontal acceleration of the gasoline before gasoline would spill is equal to 4.9 m/s²

A uniform electric field of strength E points to the right. An electron is fired with a velocity v0 to the right and travels a d
zvonat [6]

Answer:

<u />D_l=d<u />

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

The Electric field of strength direction =Right

The Velocity of The First Electron=V_0

The Velocity of The Second Electron=V_0

Therefore

V_{e1}=V_{e2}

Generally, the equation for the Horizontal Displacement of electron is mathematically given by

D=\frac{at^2}{2}

Where

Acceleration is given as

a=\frac{V_o}{2d}

And

Time

T=\frac{d}{v_0}

Therefore horizontal displacement towards the left is

D_l=\frac{(\frac{V_o}{2d})(\frac{d}{v_0})^2}{2}

<u />D_l=d<u />
