Answer:

Electric field, E=-7.35\times 10^5\ N/C in the direction of gravity.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the ball, m = 0.15 g

Charge on the ball, q=-2\ nC=-2\times 10^{-9}\ C

The ball is placed inside a uniform electric field, and is suspended against the force of gravity such that,

mg=qE

E=\dfrac{mg}{q}

E=\dfrac{0.15\times 10^{-3}\times 9.8}{-2\times 10^{-9}}

E=-7.35\times 10^5\ N/C

The electric field will be acting in the direction of gravity. Hence, this is the required solution.

A point charge q = +4.50 nC moves through a potential difference ΔV = Vf − Vi = +27.0 V. What is the change in the electric pote
olganol [36]

Change in electric potential energy: 121.5 nJ

Explanation:

For a charged particle moving in an electric field, the change in electric potential energy of the particle is given by

\Delta U = q \Delta V

where:

q is the charge of the particle

\Delta V is the potential difference between the initial and final position of the particle

For the point charge in this problem, we have:

q=+4.50 nC is the charge

\Delta V=+27.0 V is the potential difference

Therefore, the change in electric potential energy is

\Delta U=(+4.50)(+27.0)=121.5 nJ

What are the magnitude and direction of the acceleration of an electron at a point where the electric field has magnitude 7400 N
bezimeni [28]

Answer: a = 1.32 * 10^18m/s² due north

Explanation: The magnitude of the force required to move the electron is given as

F = ma

The force exerted on the charge by the electric field of intensity (E) is given by

F = Eq

Thus

Eq = ma

a = E * q/ m

Where a = acceleration of charge

E = strength of electric field = 7400N/c

q = magnitude of electronic charge = 1.609 * 10^-6c

m = mass of an electronic charge = 9.109 * 10^-31kg

a = 7400 * 1.609 * 10^-16/ 9.109 * 10^-31

a = 11906.6 * 10^-16 / 9.019 * 10^-31

a = 1.19 * 10^-12 / 9.019 * 10^-31

a = 0.132 * 10^19

a = 1.32 * 10^18m/s²

As stated in the question, the direction of the electric field is due north hence, the direction of it force will also be north thus making the electron experience a force due north ( according to Newton second law of motion)

What are the kinetic energy​
bearhunter [10]

Answer:

n physics, the kinetic energy (KE) of an object is the energy that it possesses due to its motion.[1] It is defined as the work needed to accelerate a body of a given mass from rest to its stated velocity. Having gained this energy during its acceleration, the body maintains this kinetic energy unless its speed changes. The same amount of work is done by the body when decelerating from its current speed to a state of rest.

In classical mechanics, the kinetic energy of a non-rotating object of mass m traveling at a speed v is {\displaystyle {\begin{smallmatrix}{\frac {1}{2}}mv^{2}\end{smallmatrix}}}{\begin{smallmatrix}{\frac {1}{2}}mv^{2}\end{smallmatrix}}. In relativistic mechanics, this is a good approximation only when v is much less than the speed of light.

The standard unit of kinetic energy is the joule, while the imperial unit of kinetic energy is the foot-pound.
