An electron is accelerated by a 5.9 kV potential difference. das (sd38882) – Homework #9 – yu – (44120) 3 The charge on an elect
klio [65]

Complete Question

An electron is accelerated by a 5.9 kV potential difference. das (sd38882) – Homework #9 – yu – (44120) 3 The charge on an electron is 1.60218 × 10−19 C and its mass is 9.10939 × 10−31 kg. How strong a magnetic field must be experienced by the electron if its path is a circle of radius 5.4 cm?

Answer:

The magnetic field strength is  B= 0.0048 T

Explanation:

The work done by the potential difference on the electron is related to the kinetic energy of the electron by this mathematical expression

                             \Delta V q = \frac{1}{2}mv^2

      Making v the subject

                             v = \sqrt{[\frac{2 \Delta V * q }{m}] }

 Where m is the mass of electron

              v is the velocity of electron

              q charge on electron

               \Delta V is the potential difference  

Substituting values

         v = \sqrt{\frac{2 * 5.9 *10^3 * 1.60218*10^{-19} }{9.10939 *10^{-31]} }f

            = 4.5556 *10^ {7} m/s

For the electron to move in a circular path the magnetic force[F = B q v] must be equal to the centripetal force[\frac{mv^2}{r}] and this is mathematically represented as

                  Bqv = \frac{mv^2}{r}

making B the subject

                B = \frac{mv}{rq}

r is the radius with a value = 5.4cm = = \frac{5.4}{100} = 5.4*10^{-2} m

Substituting values

                B = \frac{9.1039 *10^{-31} * 4.556 *10^7}{5.4*10^-2 * 1.60218*10^{-19}}

                     = 0.0048 T

Which of the following depend upon the amount of matter in an object?
Finger [1]

The answer is c. The amount of matter in an object is the concentration of the atoms inside. This can also be called density. Weight depends on density because weight = \frac{mass}{volume}.

A string attached to an airborne kite is maintained at an angle of 41 degrees with the horizontal. If a total of 152 m of string
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

The  horizontal displacement is  Adj  =  114.71 \ m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that  

    The  angle at which the string is maintained is  \theta  =  41 ^o

      The length of string reeled in is  l  = 152 \ m

     

Using the SOHCAHTOA formula

   We have that the hypotenuse(Hyp) is  l  =  152

Hence the  horizontal displacement of the kite  which is the Adjacent(Adj)  can be evaluated as  

     cos \theta  =  \frac{Adj}{Hyp }

substituting values

     cos(41)  =  \frac{Adj}{152}

=>   Adj  =  114.71 \ m

A baseball is thrown 50.0m in 3.0s, what is the average speed of the baseball? Calculated answer is 16.666667! What is the corre
castortr0y [4]

Answer:

20m/s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Distance of throw = 50m

Time  = 3s

Unknown:

Average speed  = ?

Solution:

Average speed is distance divided by time;

  Average speed  = \frac{distance }{time}

Insert the parameters and solve;

  Average speed  = \frac{50}{3}   = 16.66667m/s  = 20m/s

Can anyone define thermostat and list electrical appliances that have a thermostat?
Tresset [83]
A thermostat is a switch that operates itself when the temperature
goes above or below a temperature that the user can set.

-- Before you go to bed, you set the thermostat for 65° .
If the temperature in the house goes below 65° during the night,
the thermostat turns on the furnace, and keeps it running until
the house warms up to 65°.  Then it shuts the furnace off.

-- After breakfast, you set the thermostat for 75°.
If the temperature in the house goes above 75°, during the day, 
the thermostat turns on the air conditioner, and keeps it running until
the house cools down to 75°.  Then it shuts the air conditioner off.  

-- On Sunday morning, you put the slow cooker on the kitchen counter,
and you throw in a big roast, a sliced onion, some baby carrots, some
sliced potatoes, some vegetable stock, salt, pepper, garlic, chili powder,
and tomato paste.  Then you put the cover on, turn the power on, and
set the slow cooker to "LOW".  The heater in the slow cooker turns on.
  Whenever the temperature in the crock gets higher than 160°, the
thermostat in the slow cooker turns off the heater, and keeps it off
until the crock cools down to 160°.  Then the thermostat turns the
heater on again.
  By dinner time, you have a hot, juicy, scrumptious pot roast, ready
to eat.  It's not too hot, not too cold, not too tough, not dried out, and
it melts in your mouth.
You're still thinking about it when you go to bed, and your mom gives you
a slice to take to school for your lunch on Monday.
