Answer:
t = 2.58*10^-6 s
Explanation:
For a nonconducting sphere you have that the value of the electric field, depends of the region:
k: Coulomb's constant = 8.98*10^9 Nm^2/C^2
R: radius of the sphere = 10.0/2 = 5.0cm=0.005m
In this case you can assume that the proton is in the region for r > R. Furthermore you use the secon Newton law in order to find the acceleration of the proton produced by the force:
Due to the proton is just outside the surface you can use r=R and calculate the acceleration. Also, you take into account the charge density of the sphere in order to compute the total charge:
with this values of a you can use the following formula:
hence, the time that the proton takes to reach a speed of 2550km is 2.58*10^-6 s
Answer:
D) momentum of cannon + momentum of projectile= 0
Explanation:
The law of conservation of momentum states that the total momentum of an isolated system is constant.
In this case, the system cannon+projectile can be considered as isolated, because no external forces act on it (in fact, the surface is frictionless, so there is no friction acting on the cannon). Therefore, the total momentum of the two objects (cannon+projectile) must be equal before and after the firing:
But the initial momentum is zero, because at the beginning both the cannon and the projectile are at rest:
So the final momentum, which is sum of the momentum of the cannon and of the projectile, must also be zero:
