<span>Moment = Force × Perpendicular distance from the pivot</span>

We define the turning effect with the equation: Moment = Force × Perpendicular distance from the pivot. Since force is measured in newtons (N) and distances in metres (m) the unit for a moment is the newton-metre (Nm). Moments can act in two ways: clockwise or anticlockwise.

An electron is released from rest at the negative plate of a parallel plate capacitor. The charge per unit area on each plate is

Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

$v=1.08\times 10^7\ m/s$

Explanation:

Initial speed of the electron, u = 0

The charge per unit area of each plate, $\dfrac{Q}{A}=1.69\times 10^{-7}\ C/m^2$

Separation between the plates, $d=1.75\times 10^{-2}\ m$

An electron is released from rest, u = 0

Using equation of kinematics,

$v^2-u^2=2ad$ ..........(1)

Acceleration of the electron in electric field, $a=\dfrac{qE}{m}$ ............(2)

Electric field, $E=\dfrac{\sigma}{\epsilon_o}$ ............(3)

From equation (1), (2) and (3) :

$v=\sqrt{\dfrac{2q\sigma d}{m\epsilon_o}}$

$v=\sqrt{\dfrac{2\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 1.69\times 10^{-7}\times 1.75\times 10^{-2}}{9.1\times 10^{-31}\times 8.85\times 10^{-12}}}$

v = 10840393.1799 m/s

$v=1.08\times 10^7\ m/s$

So, the electron is moving with a speed of $1.08\times 10^7\ m/s$ before it reaches the positive plate. Hence, this is the required solution.

Explanation:

The deeper the sediment layer above bedrock, the more soft soil there is for the seismic waves to travel through. Soft soil means bigger waves and stronger amplification. The earthquake damage to this building may have been influenced by the type of soil it's sitting on.

A 50 kg archer standing on frictionless ice shoots a 100g arrow at a speed of 100 m/s what uis the recoild pseed of the archer?

nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

v= 0.2 m/s

Explanation:

Given that

m₁ = 50 kg

m₂ = 100 g = 0.1 kg

u =10 0 m/s

If there is no any external force on the system then the total linear momentum of the system will be conserve.

Initial linear momentum = Final momentum

m₁u₁ + m₂ u₂ =m₂ v₂ +m₁v₁

50 x 0 + 0.1 x 100 = 50 v + 0

0+ 10 = 50 v

$v=\dfrac{10}{50}\ m/s$

v= 0.2 m/s

Therefore the recoil speed will be 0.2 m/s.
