FIGURE 1 shows part of a mass spectrometer. The whole arrangement is in a vacuum. Negative ions of mass 2.84 x 10-20 kg and char

ge -2.0 x 10-19 C are produced at S, which is at a potential difference of - 3000 V. The ions are accelerated in a narrow beam towards H, a hole in a hollow metal container. Inside the container, the negative ions enter a region where an electric field of strength E and a magnetic field of strength 0.83 T act.
Is it possible for the io
ns to exit slit P without being deflected in the fields?
Explain, with the aid of diagram.​

Yes, the ions can exit slit P without being deflected, if the electric field strength is 170.6 N/C

Explanation:

When the ions are inside the container, they are subjected to two forces, with directions opposite to each other:

  • The force due to the electric field, whose magnitude is F_E=qE, where q is the charge of the ion and E is the strength of the electric field
  • The force due to the magnetic field, whose magnitude is F_B=qvB, where v is the speed of the ions and B is the strength of the magnetic field

The ions will move straight and undeflected if the two forces are equal and opposite. By using Fleming Left Hand rule, we notice that the magnetic force on the (negative) ions point upward: this means that the electric field must be also upward (so that the electric force on the ions is downward). Then, the two forces are balanced if

F_E = F_B

which translates into

qE=qvB\\\rightarrow v = \frac{E}{B}

Therefore, if the speed of the ions is equal to this ratio, the ions will go undeflected.

We can even calculate the value of E at which this occurs. In fact, we know that the ions are earlier accelerated by a potential difference V=-3000 V, so we have that their kinetic energy is given by the change in electric potential energy:

qV=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

where

q=-2.0\cdot 10^{-19}C\\m=2.84\cdot 10^{-20}kg

Solving for v, the speed,

v=\sqrt{\frac{2qV}{m}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(-2.0\cdot 10^{-19})(-3000)}{2.84\cdot 10^{-20}}}=205.6 m/s

And since the magnetic field strength is

B = 0.83 T

The strength of the electric field must be

E=vB=(205.6 m/s)(0.83 T)=170.6 N/C

Which would melt first, germanium with a melting point of 1210 k or gold with a melting point of 1064oc?
iren2701 [21]
<span>Germanium To determine which melts first, convert their melting temperatures so they're both expressed on same scale. It doesn't matter what scale you use, Kelvin, Celsius, of Fahrenheit. Just as long as it's the same scale for everything. Since we already have one substance expressed in Kelvin and since it's easy to convert from Celsius to Kelvin, I'll use Kelvin. So convert the melting point from Celsius to Kelvin for Gold by adding 273.15 1064 + 273.15 = 1337.15 K So Germanium melts at 1210K and Gold melts at 1337.15K. Germanium has the lower melting point, so it melts first.</span>

mojhsa [17]

Answer:

Net pull = 110 N to the left

Explanation:

Group the different pulls according to the direction (right or left)

2 pull 196 N each to the right

4 pull 98 N each to the left

5 pull 62 N each to the left

3 pull 150 N each to the right

1 pull 250 N to the left

Since positive direction is to the right, the pulls to the left will have a minus (-)

Net Force= 2(196)+4(-98)+5(-62)+3(150)+1(-250) \\Net Force = -110

The resulting force is negative, meaning the direction is to the left

A T-shirt cannon can shoot a 0.085 kg T-shirt at nearly 30 m/s. The T-shirt cannon has a mass of 33 kg. If the initial net momen
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

Approximately 0.077\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}} (assuming that external forces on the cannon are negligible.)

Explanation:

If an object of mass m is moving at a velocity of v, the momentum p of that object would be p = m\, v.

Momentum of the t-shirt:

\begin{aligned} p(\text{t-shirt}) &= m(\text{t-shirt}) \, v(\text{t-shirt}) \\ &= 0.085\; {\rm kg} \times 30\; {\rm m \cdot s^{-1}} \\ &= 2.55 \; {\rm kg \cdot m \cdot s^{-1}} \end{aligned}.

If there is no external force (gravity, friction, etc.) on this cannon, the total momentum of this system should be conserved. In other words, if p(\text{cannon}) denote the momentum of this cannon:

p(\text{t-shirt}) + p(\text{cannon}) = 0.

p(\text{cannon}) = -p(\text{t-shirt}) = -2.55\; {\rm kg \cdot m \cdot s^{-1}}.

Rewrite p = m\, v to obtain v = (p / m). Since the mass of this cannon is m(\text{cannon}) = 33\; {\rm kg}, the velocity of this cannon would be:

\begin{aligned} v(\text{cannon}) &= \frac{p(\text{cannon})}{m(\text{cannon})} \\ &= \frac{-2.55\; {\rm kg \cdot m \cdot s^{-1}}}{33\; {\rm kg}} \\ &\approx 0.077\; {\rm m \cdot s^{-1}}\end{aligned}.
