So the area under a velocity time graph is distance or displacement, if you have done calculus yet you will understand that if you take the integral of a velocity function then you end up with displacement. Thats for later understanding however.
So this appears to be a right triangle so we can find the area of a triangle as:
0.5bh = A
Since our area is 10 meters lets alter our formula a bit to fit the situation:
Our base here is time and our height is velocity so:
0.5tv = Δx
So we can read off the graph that our velocity at the end, or our final velocity appears to be near 2.0 m/s
So we have v, and Δx so lets isolate for time by dividing by v and 0.5
t = Δx / 0.5v
Now lets plug all that in:
t = 10 / 0.5(2)
t = 10 seconds
Hope this helped!
The question is incomplete. I can help you by adding the information missing. They want you to calculate a) the radius of the cyclotron orbit for an electron with speed 1.0 * 10^6 m/s^2 and b) the radius of a cyclotron orbit for a proton with speed 5.0 * 10^4 m/s.
The two tasks involve combining the equations of the magnectic force and the centripetal force in a circular motion.
When you do that, you will obtain an expression to find the radius of the circular motion, which is the radius of the cyclotron that impulses the particles.
a)
Magentic force, F = q*v*B
q is the charge of the electron = 1.6 * 10^ -19 C
v is the speed = 1.0 * 10 ^ 6 m/s
B is the magentic field = 5.0 * 10 ^-5 T
Centripetal force, F = m*Ac = m * v^2 / R
where,
Ac = centripetal acceleration
m = mass of the electron = 9.11 * 10 ^-31 kg
R = the radius of the orbit
Now equal the two forces: q*v*B = m * v^2 / R => R = m*v / (q*B)
=> R = (9.11 * 10^31 kg) (1.0*10^6m/s) / [ (1.6 * 10^-19C)* (5.0 * 10^-5T) ]
=> R = 0.114 m
b) The equations are the same, just now use the speed, charge and mass of the proton instead of those of the electron.
R = m*v / (qB) = (1.66*10^-27 kg)(5.0*10^4 m/s) / [(1.6*10^-19C)(5*10^-5T)]
=> R = 10.4 m
Perhaps D. if it is the lowebsr possible frequency then it would most likely be the last. I may not be 100 percent right, but that's just an educated guess.
