It's acceleration is 9.8 m/s^2 in the negative y direction, from the time it leaves the hand until it hits the floor.

A proton moves with a velocity of v with arrow = (3î − 5ĵ + k) m/s in a region in which the magnetic field is B with arrow = (î

Allisa [31]

Answer:

The magnitude of the magnetic force this particle experiences is $2.6\times10^{-9}\ N$ .

Explanation:

Given that,

Velocity v= (3i-5j+k) m/s

Magnetic field B=(i+2j-k) T

We need to calculate the value $\vec{v}\times\vec{B}$

$(\vec{v}\times\vec{B})=3i+4j+11k$

We need to calculate the magnitude of the magnetic force this particle experiences

Using formula of magnetic force

$\vec{F}=q(\vec{v}\times\vec{B})$

Put the value into the formula

$\vec{F}=1.6\times10^{-19}\times(3i+4j+11k)$

$\vec{F}=(4.8i+6.4j+1.76k)\times10^{-19}$

$|F|=2.6\times10^{-9}\ N$

Hence, The magnitude of the magnetic force this particle experiences is $2.6\times10^{-9}\ N$ .

Air (14.5 lb) undergoes a polytropic process in a closed system from p1 = 80 lbf/in2, υ1 = 4 ft3/lb to a final state where p2 =

Yanka [14]

The energy transfer in terms of work has the equation:

W = mΔ(PV)

To be consistent with units, let's convert them first as follows:

P₁ = 80 lbf/in² * (1 ft/12 in)² = 5/9 lbf/ft²
P₂ = 20 lbf/in² * (1 ft/12 in)² = 5/36 lbf/ft²
V₁ = 4 ft³/lbm
V₂ = 11 ft³/lbm

W = m(P₂V₂ - P₁V₁)
W = (14.5 lbm)[(5/36 lbf/ft²)(4 ft³/lbm) - (5/9 lbf/ft²)(11 lbm/ft³)]
W = -80.556 ft·lbf

In 1 Btu, there is 779 ft·lbf. Thus, work in Btu is:
W = -80.556 ft·lbf(1 Btu/779 ft·lbf)
<em>W = -0.1034 BTU</em>

iVinArrow [24]

If you want to change the thermos into an open energy system, you have to remove the lid. Once the lid is removed, the energy is no longer contained inside the thermos bottle. From the bottle, the energy dissipates to the environment.

A 1056-hertz tuning fork is struck at the same time as a note on the piano and you hear 2 beats/second. You tighten the piano st

elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

The frequency of the piano string is <em>1059 Hz</em>.

Explanation:

The frequency beat (fb), 2 beats/second, is the absolute difference between the frequency of the tuning fork (1056 Hz) and the frequency of the piano string.

As the piano string gets tightened, the frequency beat becomes 3 beats/second.

Therefore,

fb = $fb = fpiano - ftuning fork\\ 3 Hz=fpiano-1056Hz\\ fpiano=1056Hz+3Hz\\ fpiano=1059Hz$
