Mass and velocity are the two terms which affect momentum of a bicycle going hill down.

Explanation:

As we know that Momentum describes the motion of an object. It is the combination of the objects mass and velocity.

So, obviously with no doubt mass and velocity are the two terms which affect momentum.

Momentum(p) = Mass(m) * Velocity(v)

The momentum also depends upon the mass and speed of the object.

More the mass of the object more is the momentum.

Depending upon the gravity and bicycle's motion speed momentum varies.

Bicycle moves faster the down hill if it moves with some speed as it has lesser mass the momentum also will be less.

A point charge is placed at each corner of square with side leanth a. The charges all have same magnitude q. My question, What i

nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

E = k q / a² (1.3535) (- i ^ + j ^)

E = k q / a² 1.914 , θ’= 135

Explanation:

For this exercise we will use Newton's second law where we must add as vectors

E_total = E₁₂ i ^ + E₁₄ j ^ + E₁₃

Let's look for the value of each term

On the x axis

E₁₂ = k q / a²

On the y axis

E₁₄ = k q / a²

For the charge in the opposite corner we look for the distance

d = √ (a² + a²) = a √2

let's look for the field

E₁₃ = k q / d²

E₁₃ = k q / 2a²

let's use trigonometry to find the two components of this field

cos 45 = E₁₃ₓ / E₁₃

E₁₃ₓ = E₁₃ cos 45

sin 45 = E_{13y} / E₁₃

E_{13y} = E₁₃ sin 45

E₁₃ₓ = k q / 2a² cos 45

E_{13y} = k q / 2a² sin 45

let's find each component of the electric field

X axis

Eₓ = -E₁₂ - E₁₃ₓ

Eₓ = - k q / a² - k q / 2a² cos 45

Eₓ = - k q / a² (1 + cos 45/2)

cos 45 = sin 45 = 0.707

Eₓ = - k q / a² (1 + 0.707 / 2)

Eₓ = - k q / a² (1.3535)

Y axis

E_y = E₁₄ + E_{13y}

E_y = k q / a² + k q / 2a² sin 45

E_y = k q / a² (1 + sin 45/2)

E_y = k q / a² (1.3535)

we can give the results in two ways

E = k q / a² (1.3535) (- i ^ + j ^)

In modulus and angle form, let's use Pythagoras' theorem for the angle

E = √ (Eₓ² + E_y²)

E = k q / a² 1.3535 √2

E = k q / a² 1.914

we use trigonometry for the angle

tan θ = E_y / Eₓ

θ = tan⁻¹ (E_y / Eₓ)

θ = tan⁻¹ (1 / -1)

θ = 45

in the third quadrant, if we measure the angle of the positive side of the x-axis

θ‘= 90 + 45

θ’= 135

A proton having an initial velvocity of 20.0i Mm/s enters a uniform magnetic field of magnitude 0.300 T with a direction perpend

Sonja [21]

The time interval for which the proton remains in the field is -

Δt = $$\frac{\pi R}{40}$ .

We have a proton entering a uniform magnetic field which is in a direction perpendicular to the proton's velocity.

We have to determine time interval during which the proton is in the field.

<h3>What is the magnitude of force on the charged particle moving in a uniform magnetic field?</h3>

The magnitude of force on the charged particle moving in a uniform magnetic field is given by -

F = qvB sinθ

According to the question, we have -

Entering Velocity (v) = 20 i m/s

Magnetic field intensity (B) = 0.3 T

Leaving velocity (u) = - 20 j m/s

Now -

The entering and leaving velocity vectors have 90 degrees difference between them. Therefore, only a quarter of distance of the complete circular path of radius 'R' is traced by the proton. Therefore -

d = $$\frac{2\pi r}{4}$ = $$\frac{\pi R}{2}$

Since, the radius of circular path is not given, we will assume it R.

Therefore, time for which proton remained in the field is -

t = $$\frac{\pi R}{2v} = \frac{\pi R}{40}$

Hence, the time interval for which the proton remains in the field is -

Δt = $$\frac{\pi R}{40}$

Two parallel plates are 1 cm apart and are connected to a 500 V source. What force will be exerted on a single electron half way

VladimirAG [237]

Answer: 8*10^-15 N

Explanation: In order to calculate the force applied on an electron in the middle of the two planes at 500 V we know that, F=q*E

The electric field between the plates is given by:

E = ΔV/d = 500 V/0.01 m=5*10^3 N/C

the force applied to the electron is: F=e*E=8*10^-15 N
