An electron experiences a force of magnitude F when it is 5 cm from a very long, charged wire with linear charge density, lambda

. If the charge density is doubled, at what distance from the wire will a proton experience a force of the same magnitude F?

Answer:

The  distance of the proton is  r_p    =10 \ cm

Explanation:

Generally the force experience by the electron is mathematically represented as

         F_e  =  \frac{q *  \lambda_e }{ 2 \pi *  \epsilon_o  * r_e}

 Where  \lambda _e is the charge density of the charge wire before it is doubled

         

Also the force experience by the proton is mathematically represented as

         F_p  =  \frac{q *  \lambda_p }{ 2 \pi *  \epsilon_o  * r_p}

Given that the charge density is doubled i.e \lambda_p  =  2 \lambda_e and that the the force are  equal then

      \frac{q *  \lambda_e }{ 2 \pi *  \epsilon_o  * r_e} =   \frac{q *  2 \lambda_e }{ 2 \pi *  \epsilon_o  * r_p}

      \frac{ \lambda_e }{    r_e} =   \frac{  2 \lambda_e }{  r_p}

      r_p  * \lambda_e  =2 \lambda_e * r_e

       r_p    =2 r_e

Now given from the question that  r_e the distance of the electron from the charged wire is  5 cm

 Then  

        r_p    =2 (5)

         r_p    =10 \ cm

HOW DOES A GRAPH HELP YOU SEE ANOMALOUS DATA?
Ghella [55]

Answer:

Anomalies consist of one or more modifications, insertions or deletions. As was described in Section 3.1, there are only three types of changes that can be made to a graph. Therefore, anomalies that consist of structural changes to a graph must consist of one of these types. Assumption 4.

A well-thrown ball is caught in a well-padded mitt. If the deceleration of the ball is 2.10×10^{4} 4 m/s^{2} 2 , and 1.85 ms (1
Paha777 [63]

Answer:

u = - 38.85 m/s^-1

Explanation:

given data:

acceleration = 2.10*10^4 m/s^2

time = 1.85*10^{-3} s

final velocity = 0 m/s

from equation of motion we have following relation

v = u +at

0 =  u + 2.10*10^4 *1.85*10^{-3}

0 = u + (21 *1.85)

0 = u + 38.85

u = - 38.85 m/s^-1

negative sign indicate that the ball bounce in opposite directon

If 20 beats are produced within a single second, which of the following frequencies could possibly be held by two sound waves tr
zhuklara [117]

The correct choice is

D. 22 Hz and 42 Hz.

In fact, the beat frequency is given by the difference between the frequencies of the two waves:

f_B = |f_1 -f_2|

In this problem, the beat frequency is f_B=20 Hz, therefore the only pair of frequencies that gives a difference equal to 20 Hz is

D. 22 Hz and 42 Hz.
