Answer:

Answer:

6.68 x 10^16 m/s^2

Explanation:

Electric field, E = 3.8 x 10^5 N/C

charge of electron, q = 1.6 x 10^-19 C

mass of electron, m = 9.1 x 10^-31 kg

Let a be the acceleration of the electron.

The force due to electric field on electron is

F = q E

where q be the charge of electron and E be the electric field

F = 1.6 x 10^-19 x 3.8 x 10^5

F = 6.08 x 10^-14 N

According to Newton's second law

Force  = mass x acceleration

6.08 x 10^-14 = 9.1 x 10^-31 x a

a = 6.68 x 10^16 m/s^2

As a projectile falls, what happens to the components of velocity?
netineya [11]

Answer:

Option (c).

Explanation:

An object when when projected at an angle, will have some horizontal velocity and vertical velocity such that,

v_x=v\cos\theta\ \text{and}\ v_y=v\sin\theta

\theta is the angle of projection

The horizontal component of the projectile remains the same because there is no horizontal motion. Vertical component changes at every point.

As a projectile falls, vertical velocity increases in magnitude, horizontal velocity stays the same .

URGENTE ¿Cuál de los siguientes términos corresponde al concepto presión? * A. Es la fuerza perpendicular que ejerce un cuerpo s
melomori [17]

Answer:

Respuesta correcta, opción D: Es la fuerza que un cuerpo ejerce perpendicularmente sobre el área en la que actúa.

Explanation:

La definición de presión es la fuerza que un cuerpo ejerce en dirección perpendicular sobre el área en la que actúa.

Cuando se aplica una fuerza sobre la superficie de un cuerpo, la presión es la siguiente:

P = \frac{F}{A}

En donde:

F es la fuerza aplicada.

A es el área del cuerpo.  

Por lo tanto la opción correcta es la D: es la fuerza que un cuerpo ejerce perpendicularmente sobre el área en la que actúa.

Espero que se sea de utilidad!
