A uniform electric field exists in the region between two oppositely charged plane parallel plates. A proton is released from re

st at the surface of the positively charged plate and strikes the surface of the opposite plate, 1.20 cm distant from the first, in a time interval of 3.80×10−6 s
Part A

Find the magnitude of the electric field.

Part B

Find the speed of the proton when it strikes the negatively charged plate.

Answer:

a) 17.33 V/m

b) 6308 m/s

Explanation:

We start by using equation of motion

s = ut + 1/2at², where

s = 1.2 cm = 0.012 m

u = 0 m/s

t = 3.8*10^-6 s, so that

0.012 = 0 * 3.8*10^-6 + 0.5 * a * (3.8*10^-6)²

0.012 = 0.5 * a * 1.444*10^-11

a = 0.012 / 7.22*10^-12

a = 1.66*10^9 m/s²

If we assume the electric field to be E, and we know that F =qE. Also, from Newton's law, we have F = ma. So that, ma = qE, and E = ma/q, where

E = electric field

m = mass of proton

a = acceleration

q = charge of proton

E = (1.67*10^-27 * 1.66*10^9) / 1.6*10^-19

E = 2.77*10^-18 / 1.6*10^-19

E = 17.33 V/m

Final speed of the proton can be gotten by using

v = u + at

v = 0 + 1.66*10^9 * 3.8*10^-6

v = 6308 m/s

A rod of very small diameter with a mass 2m and length 3L is placed along the xaxis with one end at the origin. An identical rod
rewona [7]

Answer:

coordinates of the center of mass for these two rods

(x_{cm}, y_{cm})= (\frac{3L}{4},  \frac{3L}{4})cm

Explanation:

given

mass of a rod = 2m

length of the rod = 3L

mass of two rods = 2(2m) = 4m

radius = diameter/2 = \frac{3L}{2}

If there are 20 Earthworms in a garden that covers 5 square meters, what is the population density of the earthworms?
hodyreva [135]

I think, I do think.. that it is D.

Wouldn't it be simple to divide 5 from 20, that would equal 4.

4 earthworms per square meter.

Define: New Moon, Full Moon, Waxing phases and Waning phases.
Nutka1998 [239]
Full moon: All of the moon or sun appears covers by the shadow.
When the moon is waxing, it means that the lit part is getting larger (going towards a full moon)
When the moon is waning , it means that the lit part is getting smaller (going towards a new moon)
The new moon represents the start of a new lunar cycle and occurs approximately every 29 days.

Hope that help:)

The acceleration due to gravity is g at the earth's surface. an earth satellite is orbiting at a distance from the earth's surfa
disa [49]

The acceleration due to gravity is g/4

The acceleration above the earth surface is given by the relation

g^'=gr^2/〖(h+r)〗^2

Since the satellite orbits the earth in a orbit of radius equal to earth radius, therefore

g^'=(gr^2)/〖(r+r)〗^2 =g/4

Thus the acceleration due to gravity on the satellite is g/4.
