Describe a situation in which an electron will be affected by an external electric field but will not be affected by an external

magnetic field. Is it possible that an electron is affected by an external magnetic field but not by an external electric field?

Answer:

Explanation:

Situations in which an electron will be affected by an external electric field but will not be affected by an external magnetic field

a ) When an electron is stationary in the electric field and magnetic field , he will be affected by electric field but not by magnetic field. Magnetic field can exert force only on mobile charges.

b ) When the electron is moving parallel to electric field and magnetic field . In this case also electric field will  exert force on electron but magnetic field field will not exert force on electrons . Magnetic field can exert force only on the perpendicular component of the velocity of charged particles.

Situations when electron is affected by an external magnetic field but not by an external electric field

There is no such situation in which electric field will not affect an electron . It will always affect an electron .

Boron coated with SiC (or Borsic) reinforced aluminum containing aligned 20 vol% fibers is an important high-temperature, lightw
Scilla [17]

Answer:

Option C is correct.

Modulus of elasticity of the composite perpendicular to the fibers = (12 × 10⁶) psi

Explanation:

For combination of materials, the properties (especially physical properties) of the resulting composite is a sum of the fractional contribution of each material thay makes up the composite.

In this composite,

The fibres = 20 vol%

Aluminium = 80 vol%

Modulus of elasticity of the composite

= [0.2 × E(fibres)] + [0.8 × E(Al)]

Modulus of elasticity of the fibers = E(fibres) = (55 × 10⁶) psi. =

Modulus of elasticity of aluminum = E(Al) = (10 × 10⁶) psi.

But modulus of elasticity of the composite perpendicular to the fibers is given in the expression.

[1 ÷ E(perpendicular)]

= [0.2 ÷ E(fibres)] + [0.8 ÷ E(Al)]

[1 ÷ E(perpendicular)]

= [0.2 ÷ (55 × 10⁶)] + [0.8 ÷ (10 × 10⁶)]

= (3.636 × 10⁻⁹) + (8.00 × 10⁻⁸)

= (8.3636 × 10⁻⁸)

E(perpendicular) = 1 ÷ (8.3636 × 10⁻⁸)

= 11,961,722.5 psi = (11.96 × 10⁶) psi

= (12 × 10⁶) psi

Hope this Helps!!!

. Determine if approximate cylindrical symmetry holds for the following situations. State why or why not. (a) A 300-cm long copp
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

a) Yes

b) No

Explanation:

In the first case, part a, yes we can say for certainty that cylinderical symmetry holds. Why so? You may ask. This is because from the question, we are told that the length of the rod is 300 cm. And this said length is longer than the distance to the point from the center of the rod, which is 5 cm.

In the second half of the question, I beg to disagree that cylindrical symmetry holds. Again, you may ask why, this is because the length of the rod in this case, is having the same order of magnitude as the distance to the center of the rod. Thus, it is not symmetrical.
