Describe what happens to pressure as the force exerted on a given area increases.

1 answer:

4 0

That's the definition of pressure ... force on a given area.

So when that force increases, it's an increase in pressure.

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)

spotlight on a boat is 2.5 m above the water, and the light strikes the water at a point that is 8.0 m horizontally displaced fr

ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let i be the angle of incidence and r be the angle of refraction .

From the figure

Tan ( 90 - i ) = 2.5 / 8

cot i = 2.5 / 8

Tan i = 8 / 2.5 = 3.2

i = 72.65°

From snell's law

sini / sin r = refractive index

sin 72.65 / sinr = 1.333

sin r = .9545 / 1.333

= .72

r = 46⁰

From the figure

Tan r = d / 4

Tan 46 = d /4

d = 4 x Tan 46

= 4 x 1.0355

=4.14 m .

he atomic radii of Li and O2- ions are 0.068 and 0.140 nm, respectively. (a) Calculate the force of attraction in newtons betwee

Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

$F = -1.07 *10^{-8} \ N$

$F_r = 1.07 *10^{-8} \ N$

Explanation:

Generally the force of attraction between this two irons is mathematically represented as

$F = \frac{k * [Q_{Li} ] * [Q_{O} ] }{ r^2}$

Here k is known as the proportionality constant with value $k = 2.31 * 10^ {-28} J \cdot m$

substituting -2 for $Q_{O}$ i.e the charge on oxygen , +1 for $Q_{Li}$ i.e the charge on Lithium and $[0.140 + 0.068 ] nm= 0.208 nm = 0.208*10^{-9}$ for r

$F = \frac{ 2.31 * 10^ {-28}* +1 * -2 }{ ( 0.208*10^{-9} )^2 }$

$F = -1.07 *10^{-8} \ N$

Generally the force of repulsion will be the magnitude but different direction to the force o attraction

So Force of repulsionn is

$F_r = 1.07 *10^{-8} \ N$

Which type of telescope does not require darkness in order to be able to use it?

exis [7]

Answer:

A type of telescope that does not require darkness in order to be able to use it is the refracting telescope

Explanation:

A refracting telescope consists of a lens and an eyepiece collects light which is then focused to present a magnified, bright and clear image.

The incident light on a refracting telescope is bent by refraction such that the light is focused to the focal point.

In refracting telescopes, the image is formed by bending light, that is by refraction.

The refracting telescope technology has been applied to binoculars and camera zoom lenses.
