The amount of energy needed is 2093 J

Explanation:

The amount of energy needed to increase the temperature of a substance by $\Delta T$ is given by the equation

$Q=mC\Delta T$

where

m is the mass of the substance

C is its specific heat capacity

$\Delta T$ is the increase in temperature

For the water in this problem, we have

m = 50.0 g = 0.050 kg

$C=4186 J/g^{\circ}C$ (specific heat capacity of water)

$\Delta T=10.0^{\circ}C$

Therefore, the amount of energy needed is

$Q=(0.050)(4186)(10)=2093 J$

What is the largest possible magnitude of the acceleration of the electron due to the magnetic field?

Alina [70]

Thank you for posting your question here at brainly. But your question seems incomplete. I will assume you based the situation below:

An electrons moves at 2.0x10^6 m/s through a region in which there is a magnetic field of unspecified direction and magnitude 7.4x10^-2 T.

The largest possible magnitude of the acceleration of the electron due to the magnetic field is = 2.6 × 10 ¹⁶ m / s ²

When a wire within a closed circuit is coiled upon a nail, the nail will _______.

Natali5045456 [20]

when wire is coiled upon a nail then it will posses magnetic characteristics

This is due to the coiled shape it will behave like a solenoid and the magnetic field of solenoid is given as

$B = \mu_o ni$
