What is the acceleration of a proton moving with a speed of 6.5 m/s at right angles to a magnetic field of 1.8 t ?

The magnetic force acting on the proton is 
F=qvB \sin \theta
where
q is the proton charge
v is its speed
B is the intensity of the magnetic field
\theta is the angle between the direction of v and B; since the proton is moving perpendicular to the magnetic field, \theta=90^{\circ} and \sin \theta=1, so the force becomes
F=qvB

this force provides the centripetal force that keeps the proton in circular motion:
m \frac{v^2}{r} = q v B
where the term on the left is the centripetal force, with
m being the mass of the proton
r the radius of its orbit

Re-arranging the previous equation, we can find the radius of the proton's orbit:
r= \frac{mv}{qB}= \frac{(1.67 \cdot 10^{-27} kg)(6.5 m/s)}{(1.6 \cdot 10^{-19} C)(1.8 T)}=3.77 \cdot 10^{-8}m

And now we can calculate the centripetal acceleration of the proton, which is given by
a_c =  \frac{v^2}{r}= \frac{(6.5 m/s)^2}{3.77\cdot 10^{-8}m}=1.12 \cdot 10^9 m/s^2

Answer:

EMF = 33880 Volts

Explanation:

As per Faraday's law of Electromagnetic induction we know that

Rate of change in magnetic flux will induce EMF in the closed conducting loop

so we have

\phi = B.A

now we have

A = (110 \times 10^3)(110 \times 10^3)

A = 1.21 \times 10^{10}

now we have

\phi = B(1.21 \times 10^{10})

now the induced EMF through this loop is given as

EMF = (\frac{dB}{dt})(1.21 \times 10^{10})

EMF = (2.8 \times 10^{-6})(1.21 \times 10^{10})

EMF = 33880 Volts

A gas is compressed in a cylinder from a volume of 20.0 l to 2.0 l by a constant pressure of 10.0 atm. calculate the amount of w
jok3333 [9.3K]
First, we need to convert the pressure in SI units. Keeping in mind that 1 atm = 1.01 \cdot 10^5 Pa:
p=10.0 atm =1.01 \cdot 10^6 Pa

The initial and final volume of the gas are (keeping in mind that 1.0 L = 0.001 m^3):
V_i = 20.0 L=0.020 m^3
V_f = 2.0 L=0.002 m^3

So, the work done on the gas by the surrounding is
W= -p \Delta V=-p(V_f-V_i)=-(1.01 \cdot 10^6 Pa)(0.002 m^3-0.020 m^3)=18180 J
And the final positive sign means that this work corresponds to an increase in internal energy of the gas.

If an object has a kinetic energy of 30 j and mass of 34kg how fast is the object moving ?
cricket20 [7]

Ek = (m*V^2) / 2 where m is mass and V is speed, then we can take this equation and manipulate it a little to isolate the speed.

Ek = mv^2 / 2 — multiply both sides by 2

2Ek = mv^2 — divide both sides by m

2Ek / m = V^2 — switch sides

V^2 = 2Ek / m — plug in values

V^2 = 2*30J / 34kg

V^2 = 60J/34kg

V^2 = 1.76 m/s — sqrt of both sides

V = sqrt(1.76)

V = 1.32m/s (roughly)
