2.4s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Impulse = 12Ns

Force = 5N

Unknown:

Time taken for the force to act = ?

Solution:

Impulse is the change in momentum of a body when an external force acts on body for a period of time.

Impulse = force x time

Since the unknown in this problem is time, we make it the subject of the formula;

Time = $\frac{impulse}{force}$

Inputting the parameters;

Time taken for force to act = $\frac{12}{5}$ = 2.4s

A beam of protons moves in a circle of radius 0.20 m. The protons move perpendicular to a 0.36-T magnetic field. (a) What is the

gregori [183]

Answer:

a) $v=6.898\times 10^{6}\ m.s^{-1}$ is the speed of each proton

b) $F_c=3.97\times 10^{-13}\ N$

Explanation:

Given:

radius of path of motion, $r=0.2\ m$

we know charge on protons, $q=1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C$

magnetic field strength, $B=0.36\ T$

we've mass of proton, $m=1.67\times 10^{-27}\ kg$

From the equivalence of magnetic force and the centripetal force on the proton:

$F_B=F_C$

$q.v.B=\frac{m.v^2}{r}$

$q.B=\frac{m.v}{r}$

where:

v = speed of the proton

$(1.6\times 10^{-19})\times 0.36=\frac{1.67\times 10^{-27}\times v}{0.2}$

$v=6.898\times 10^{6}\ m.s^{-1}$ is the speed of each proton

Now the centripetal force on each proton:

$F_c=m.\frac{v^2}{r}$

$F_c=1.67\times 10^{-27}\times \frac{(6.898\times 10^6)^2}{0.2}$

$F_c=3.97\times 10^{-13}\ N$

What waves have wavelengths longer than those of visible light? Give an example of how each kind of wave is used.

egoroff_w [7]

<span>The visible light has wavelength in the range 400 - 700 nano-meters. The wavelengths longer than visible light are: 1-Infrared waves (used in ringtone/mobile waves)2-microwaves - used to heat and cook food. 3- Radio waves - used in communication purposes.</span>

A research submarine has a 30-cm-diameter window that is 8.1 cm thick. The manufacturer says the window can withstand forces up

malfutka [58]

The pressure at a certain depth underwater is:

P = ρgh

P = pressure, ρ = sea water density, g = gravitational acceleration near Earth, h = depth

The pressure exerted on the submarine window is:

P = F/A

P = pressure, F = force, A = area

The area of the circular submarine window is:

A = π(d/2)²

A = area, d = diameter

Set the expressions for the pressure equal to each other:

F/A = ρgh

Substitute A:

F/(π(d/2)²) = ρgh

Isolate h:

h = F/(ρgπ(d/2)²)

Given values:

F = 1.1×10⁶N

ρ = 1030kg/m³ (pulled from a Google search)

g = 9.81m/s²

d = 30×10⁻²m

Plug in and solve for h:

h = 1.1×10⁶/(1030(9.81)π(30×10⁻²/2)²)

h = 1540m
