How would you change the distance between two charged particles to increase the electric force between them by a factor of 16

2 answers:

4 0

The electrostatic force between two charges is inversely
proportional to the square of the distance between them.

So if you want to multiply the force by, say, ' Q ',
you need to multiply the distance by ( 1 / √Q ) .

We want to multiply the force by 16, so we need to
multiply the distance by ( 1 / √16 ) = ( 1 / 4 ) .

The distance should be changed to 1/4 of what it is now.

A shaving or makeup mirror is designed to magnify your face by a factor of 1.40 when your face is placed 20.0cm in front of it

Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

(a) convex mirror

(b) virtual and magnified

Explanation:

The having mirror is convex mirror.

distance of object, u = - 20 cm

magnification, m = 1.4

(a) As the image is magnified and virtual , so the mirror is convex in nature.

(b) The image is virtual and magnified.

Use the formula of magnification.

$m =-\frac{v}{u}\\1.4=-\frac{v}{-20}\\v =28 cm$

Use the mirror equation, let the focal length is f.

$\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{v}+\frac{1}{u}\\\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{28}+\frac{1}{20}\\\frac{1}{f}=\frac{28+20}{560}\\f=11.67cm$

Radius of curvature, R = 2 f = 2 x 11.67 = 23.3 cm

A proton having an initial velvocity of 20.0i Mm/s enters a uniform magnetic field of magnitude 0.300 T with a direction perpend

Sonja [21]

The time interval for which the proton remains in the field is -

Δt = $$\frac{\pi R}{40}$ .

We have a proton entering a uniform magnetic field which is in a direction perpendicular to the proton's velocity.

We have to determine time interval during which the proton is in the field.

<h3>What is the magnitude of force on the charged particle moving in a uniform magnetic field?</h3>

The magnitude of force on the charged particle moving in a uniform magnetic field is given by -

F = qvB sinθ

According to the question, we have -

Entering Velocity (v) = 20 i m/s

Magnetic field intensity (B) = 0.3 T

Leaving velocity (u) = - 20 j m/s

Now -

The entering and leaving velocity vectors have 90 degrees difference between them. Therefore, only a quarter of distance of the complete circular path of radius 'R' is traced by the proton. Therefore -

d = $$\frac{2\pi r}{4}$ = $$\frac{\pi R}{2}$

Since, the radius of circular path is not given, we will assume it R.

Therefore, time for which proton remained in the field is -

t = $$\frac{\pi R}{2v} = \frac{\pi R}{40}$

Hence, the time interval for which the proton remains in the field is -

Δt = $$\frac{\pi R}{40}$

joja [24]

Answer:

a) N = 145,833,674.52174 = 1.458 × 10⁸ strands

b) diameter of single rope with the same effect = 2.415 cm

Explanation:

Hooke's law explains that stress is directly proportional to strain.

Stress ∝ Strain.

Stress = E × Strain

E = constant of proportionality = Young's Modulus = 4.0 ✕ 10⁹ N/m².

Stress = (Load/Total Cross sectional Area)

Load = a pair of 85 kg mountain climbers = 85 × 2 × 9.8 = 1666 N

Total Cross sectional Area = (Number of strands) × (Area of one strand) = A

Strain = (ΔL/L)

ΔL = 1.00 cm = 0.01 m

L = 11 m

Strain = (0.01/11) = 0.0009091

Stress = (Young's Modulus) × (Strain) = (4.0 ✕ 10⁹) × (0.0009091) = 3,636,363.64 N/m²

(Load/ total Area) = 3,636,363.64

Total area = (Load/3,636,363.64) = (1666/3,636,363.64) = 0.00045815 m²

Recall,

Total Cross sectional Area = (Number of strands) × (Area of one strand)

Area of one strand = (πd²/4)

diameter of one strand = 2 μm = (2×10⁻⁶) m

Area of one strand = (πd²/4)

= π × (2×10⁻⁶)² ÷ 4 = (3.142 × 10⁻¹²) m²

Total Cross sectional Area = (Number of strands) × (Area of one strand)

0.00045815 = N × (3.142 × 10⁻¹²)

N = 145,833,674.52174 = 1.458 × 10⁸ strands

b) If it was a single rope, the cross sectional Area would just be equal to the total cross sectional Area obtained in (a)

A = 0.00045815 m²

A = (πD²/4)

where D = diameter of the single rope

0.00045815 = (πD²/4)

D² = (4×0.00045815) ÷ π = 0.0005833347

D = 0.02415 m = 2.415 cm

Hope this Helps!!!
