Answer:

D. 230 N

Explanation:

The magnitude of the electric force between the two protons is given by:

F=k\frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2}

where

k is the Coulomb's constant

q_1 = q_2 = 1.6\cdot 10^{-19} C is the charge of each proton

r=1\cdot 10^{-15} m is the distance between the two protons

Substituting numbers into the formula, we find

F=(9\cdot 10^9 N m^2 C^{-2}) \frac{(1.6\cdot 10^{-19} C)^2}{(1\cdot 10^{-15} m^2)^2}=230.4 N \sim 230 N

How do i calculate this?
Lesechka [4]

CAR 1

Momentum = Mass/Velocity

M = 2100/20

M = 105 m/s^2

CAR 2

Momentum = Mass/Velocity

M = 2100/30

M = 70 m/s^2

A proton moves perpendicularly to a uniform magnetic field b with a speed of 3.7 × 107 m/s and experiences an acceleration of 5
svlad2 [7]
The magnetic force experienced by the proton is given by
F=qvB \sin \theta
where q is the proton charge, v its velocity, B the magnitude of the magnetic field and \theta the angle between the direction of v and B. Since the proton moves perpendicularly to the magnetic field, this angle is 90 degrees, so \sin \theta=1 and we can ignore it in the formula.

For Netwon's second law, the force is also equal to the proton mass times its acceleration:
F=ma

So we have
ma=qvB
from which we can find the magnitude of the field:
B= \frac{ma}{qv}= \frac{(1.67 \cdot 10^{-27}kg)(5\cdot 10^{13}m/s^2)}{(1-6 \cdot 10^{-19}C)(3.7 \cdot 10^7 m/s)}=0.014 T

What is measurements?​
Sliva [168]

Answer:

the action of measuring something.

Measurement is a comparison of an unknown quantity with a known fixed quantity of the same kind. The value obtained on measuring a quantity is called its magnitude. Magnitude of a quantity is expressed as numbers in its units.

Suppose that two point charges, each with a charge of +3.00 Coulomb are separated by a distance of 3.00 meters. Determine the ma
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

9\cdot 10^9 N

Explanation:

The magnitude of the electrical force between the two point charges is

F=k\frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2}

where

k is the Coulomb's constant

q_1 =q_2 = +3.0 C is the magnitude of each charge

r = 3.00 m is the separation between the two charges

Substituting the numbers into the formula, we find

F=(9\cdot 10^9 Nm^2C^{-2})\frac{(+3 C)^2}{(3.00 m)^2}=9\cdot 10^9 N
