This problem here is an example of inelastic collision where kinetic energy is not conserved but momentum is. We calculate as follows:

m1v1 + m2v2 = (m1 + m2)v3
v3 = m1v1 + m2v2  / m1 + m2
v3 = (30.2)(1000) + (5000)(0) / (30.2 + 5000)
v3 = 6.00 m/s

An electron enters the gap between the plates of a capacitor at the center of the gap traveling parallel to theplates at 2.0 x 1
Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

How far will the electron travel beforehitting a plate is 248.125mm

Explanation:

Applying Gauss' law:

Electric Field E = Charge density/epsilon nought

Where charge density=1.0 x 10^-6C/m2 & epsilon nought= 8.85× 10^-12

Therefore E = 1.0 x 10^-6/8.85× 10^-12

E= 1.13×10^5N/C

Force on electron F=qE

Where q=charge of electron=1.6×10^-19C

Therefore F=1.6×10^-19×1.13×10^5

F=1.808×10^-14N

Acceleration on electron a = Force/Mass

Where Mass of electron = 9.10938356 × 10^-31

Therefore a= 1.808×10^-14 /9.11 × 10-31

a= 1.985×10^16m/s^2

Time spent between plate = Distance/Speed

From the question: Distance=1cm=0.01m and speed = 2×10^6m/s^2

Therefore Time = 0.01/2×10^6

Time =5×10^-9s

How far the electron would travel S =ut+ at^2/2 where u=0

S= 1.985×10^16×(5×10^-9)^2/2

S=24.8125×10^-2m

S=248.125mm

Two +1 C charges are separated by 30000 m, what is the magnitude of<br> the force?
Kipish [7]

Answer:

<em>The magnitude of the force is 10 N</em>

Explanation:

<u>Coulomb's Law</u>

The electrostatic force between two charged objects is directly proportional to the product of their charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the two objects.

Written as a formula:

\displaystyle F=k\frac{q_1q_2}{d^2}

Where:

k=9\cdot 10^9\ N.m^2/c^2

q1, q2 = the objects' charge

d= The distance between the objects

We have two identical charges of q1=q2=1 c separated by d=30000 m, thus the magnitude of the force is:

\displaystyle F=9\cdot 10^9\frac{1*1}{30000^2}

\displaystyle F=9\cdot 10^9\frac{1*1}{30000^2}

F = 10 N

The magnitude of the force is 10 N

A mass of 1 kg is moving in a circle of radius 3.3 meters. What is the liner velocity v m/s that would give a Centripetal Force
Ghella [55]

Answer:

The linear velocity of the object is 8.71 m/s.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the object, m = 1 kg

radius of the circle, r = 3.3 meters

centripetal force, F = 23 N

Centripetal force is given by;

F_c = \frac{mv^2}{r}\\\\

where;

v is the linear velocity of the object

F_c = \frac{mv^2}{r}\\\\mv^2 = F_cr\\\\v^2 = \frac{F_cr}{m}\\\\v= \sqrt{\frac{F_cr}{m}} \\\\v= \sqrt{\frac{23*3.3}{1}}\\\\v = 8.71 \ m/s

Therefore, the linear velocity of the object is 8.71 m/s.
