Answer:

a) P =392.4[Pa]; b) F = 706.32[N]

Explanation:

With the input data of the problem we can calculate the area of the tank base

L = length = 10[m]

W = width = 18[cm] = 0.18[m]

A = W * L = 0.18*10

A = 1.8[m^2]

a)

Pressure can be calculated by knowing the density of the water and the height of the water column within the tank which is equal to h:

P = density * g *h

where:

density = 1000[kg/m^3]

g = gravity = 9.81[m/s^2]

h = heigth = 4[cm] = 0.04[m]

P = 1000*9.81*0.04

P = 392.4[Pa]

The force can be easily calculated knowing the relationship between pressure and force:

P = F/A

F = P*A

F = 392.4*1.8

F = 706.32[N]

The reservoir stores 6 500 000 m3 of water. The density of the water is 998 kg/m3. Calculate the mass of water in the reservoir.
Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer:

Mass = 64,870,000,000 kilograms

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Density = 998 kg/m³

Volume = 6,500,000 m³

To find the mass of water in the reservoir;

Density can be defined as mass all over the volume of an object.

Simply stated, density is mass per unit volume of an object.

Mathematically, density is given by the equation;

Density = mass/volume

Making mass the subject of formula, we have;

Mass = density * volume

Mass = 998 * 6,500,000

Mass = 64,870,000,000 kilograms

Consider an electron, of charge magnitude e = 1.602 10-19 C and mass me = 9.11 10-31 kg, moving in an electric field with an ele
Tems11 [23]

Answer: v= 7.509 x 10^6 m/s

B) the lower plate because the electron is negatively charged

Explanation:

From the question

Electronic charge (q) =1.602 x 10^-19c

Electric field intensity (E) = 8 x 10² = 800N/C

Mass of electron (m) = 9.11 x 10^-31 kg

Length of plate (L) = 50cm=0.5m

Distance between plates (D) = 20cm = 0.2m

Since the electron is entering a uniform electric field, the resulting motion will be of a constant acceleration and can be defined by the equations of motion with a constant acceleration.

From newton's law of motion.

F= ma

The force (F) is coming from the electric field which is

F=Eq.

Thus F = 800 x 1.602 x 10^-19

F = 1.2816 x 10^-16 N

Acceleration of electron (a) = F/m where m is the mass of electron (given above)

Hence

a = 1.2816 x 10^-16 / 9.11 x 10^-31

a= 1.41 x 10¹⁴ m/s².

Using Newton laws of motion to get velocity, we recall that v²= u² + 2ad

Where v is final velocity, u is initial velocity (zero in this case because the electron starts it motion from rest), a= acceleration, d= distance traveled (which in this case is distance between plates)

v² = 0² + 2(1.41 x 10¹⁴) x 0.2

v² = 5.64 x 10¹³

Thus v = √ 5.64 x 10¹³

v = 7.509 x 10^6 m/s

Since the electric field is upwards it denotes that the positive plate is downward and the negative is upward ( this is because electric flux from a positive charge has an outward flow and that from a negative charge has an inward flow. So from our questions, if the electric field is upward, it means it is starting from the bottom plate which will be positive) the electron (which is negatively charged) will be attracted to the positive plate which is downward for this question of ours.

So therefore, the electron is attracted to the downward plate because it (electron) is negative
