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

A light wave traveling through medium 1 strikes a boundary with medium 2 at at a 45 degree angle. the light then enters the seco
Alona [7]

Here light ray strikes to interface at an angle of 45 degree and then refracts into other medium such that it will bend towards boundary.

So here the angle of incidence will be less than the angle of refraction as light moves towards the boundary after refraction which mean it will bend away from the normal

here it can be said that medium 2 will be rarer then medium 1

So here the possible options are

1. Water  

Air

2. Diamond  

Air

So in above two options medium 1 is denser and medium 2 is rarer

A plane is landing. It started at 400m/s and ended up at 50m/s after 30 seconds. What is it's acceleration?
quester [9]

Give u = start velocity

        v = end velocity

v = u + at

50 = 400 + a*30

30a = -350

a = -116.67 m/s^{2}

**Why the accecleration is negative number**

Because displacement, velocity, and acceleration are VECTOR QUANTITIES.

Vector Quantity must have direction.

What was the runoff from precipitation on the property for areas with vegetation and roofed or paved areas over the past four mo
puteri [66]

Answer:

Higher percentage of runoff water is absorbed by the vegetation whereas 100 % of water runoff on the roofed area.

Explanation:

Higher percentage of runoff water is absorbed by the vegetation and very little amount of runoff water is received on the end of vegetative cover while on the other hand, 100 percent of precipitation water runoff on the surface of roofed or paved area because no water is absorbed by the roof due to its solid surface. The percentage of runoff depends on the factors such as rainfall intensity, slope, soil water storage capacity, and infiltration rate.

In a pool game, the cue ball, which has an initial speed of 3.0 m/s, make an elastic collision with the eight ball, which is ini
zhenek [66]

Explanation:

Given

initial speed(u)=3 m/s

mass of each ball is m

Let the cue ball is moving in x direction initially

In elastic collision Energy and momentum is conserved

Let u be the initial velocity and v_1 , v_2 be the final velocity of 8 ball and cue ball respectively

\frac{mu^2}{2}+0=\frac{mv^2_1}{2}+\frac{mv^2_2}{2}

The angle after which cue ball is deflected is given by

\theta _1=90-40=50^{\circ}

Conserving momentum in x direction

mu=mv_1cos40+mv_2cos50

3=v_1cos40+v_2cos50

Along Y axis

0+0=v_1sin40-v_2sin50

v_1sin40=v_2sin50

substitute the value of v_1

we get v_2=1.912 m/s

v_1=2.27 m/s
