Answer:
x = -1.20 m
y = -1.12 m
Explanation:
as we know that four masses and their position is given as
5.0 kg (0, 0)
2.9 kg (0, 3.2)
4 kg (2.5, 0)
8.3 kg (x, y)
As we know that the formula of center of gravity is given as
Similarly for y direction we have
Answer:
The number of electrons that must be moved from one electrode to the other to accomplish this is 1.4 X 10⁹ electrons.
Explanation:
<u>Step 1:</u> calculate the charge on each electrode
Given;
Electric field strength = 2.0 X 10⁶ N/C
The distance between the electrode = 1mm = 1 X 10⁻³ m
Electric field strength (E) = Force (F)/Charge (q)
where;
E is the electric field strength = 2.0 X 10⁶ N/C
K is coulomb's constant = 8.99 X 10⁹ Nm²/C²
r is the distance between the electrodes = 1 X 10⁻³ m
q is the charge in each electrode = ?
= 0.2225 X 10⁻⁹ C
The charge on each electrode is 0.2225 X 10⁻⁹ C
<u>Step 2:</u> calculate the number of electrons to be moved from one electrode to the other.
1 electron contains 1.602 X 10⁻¹⁹ C
So, 0.2225 X 10⁻⁹ C will contain how many electrons ?
= (0.2225 X 10⁻⁹)/(1.602 X 10⁻¹⁹)
= 1.4 X 10⁹ electrons
Therefore, the number of electrons that must be moved from one electrode to the other to accomplish this is 1.4 X 10⁹ electrons.
