The actual position of the object is <span>at a great distance, effectively infinite. The other options given in the question are not at all correct. The correct option among all the options that are given in the question is the last option or option "D". I hope that this answer has actually come to your great help.</span>
Answer:
the magnitude of a uniform electric field that will stop these protons in a distance of 2 m is 10143.57 V/m or 1.01 × 10⁴ V/m
Explanation:
Given the data in the question;
Kinetic energy of each proton that makes up the beam = 3.25 × 10⁻¹⁵ J
Mass of proton = 1.673 × 10⁻²⁷ kg
Charge of proton = 1.602 × 10⁻¹⁹ C
distance d = 2 m
we know that
Kinetic Energy = Charge of proton × Potential difference ΔV
so
Potential difference ΔV = Kinetic Energy / Charge of proton
we substitute
Potential difference ΔV = ( 3.25 × 10⁻¹⁵ ) / ( 1.602 × 10⁻¹⁹ )
Potential difference ΔV = 20287.14 V
Now, the magnitude of a uniform electric field that will stop these protons in a distance of 2 m will be;
E = Potential difference ΔV / distance d
we substitute
E = 20287.14 V / 2 m
E = 10143.57 V/m or 1.01 × 10⁴ V/m
Therefore, the magnitude of a uniform electric field that will stop these protons in a distance of 2 m is 10143.57 V/m or 1.01 × 10⁴ V/m
Answer:
at the speed of light (
)
Explanation:
The second postulate of the theory of the special relativity from Einstein states that:
"The speed of light in free space has the same value c in all inertial frames of reference, where "
This means that it doesn't matter if the observer is moving or not relative to the source of ligth: he will always observe light moving at the same speed, c.
In this problem, we have a starship emitting a laser beam (which is an electromagnetic wave, so it travels at the speed of light). The startship is moving relative to the Earth with a speed of 2.0*10^8 m/s: however, this is irrelevant for the exercise, because according to the postulate we mentioned above, an observer on Earth will observe the laser beam approaching Earth with a speed of .
True IF the engine is 25% efficient. False otherwise.
We know density = Mass / Volume
So Volume = Mass/Density
Volume = Area * Thickness
So the approximate thickness of the foil in millimeters =
