A moving electron passes near the nucleus of a gold atom, which contains 79 protons and 118 neutrons. At a particular moment the

electron is a distance of 7.5 × 10−9 m from the gold nucleus. (a) What is the magnitude of the electric force exerted by the gold nucleus on the electron?

Answer:

F=3.2345*10^{-10}N

Explanation:

Given data

Distance r=7.5×10⁻⁹m

Charge of electron -e= -1.6×10⁻¹⁹C

Charge of proton e=1.6×10⁻¹⁹C

To find

Electric force F

Solution

From Coulombs law we know that:

F=K\frac{q_{1}q_{2} }{r^{2} }

q₁ is charge of electron

q₂ is the charge of gold nucleus which contains 79 positively charge protons and 118 neutral neutrons.  

The Charge of single proton e=1.6×10⁻¹⁹C

79 proton charge q₂=79×1.6×10⁻¹⁹=1.264×10⁻¹⁷C

So

F=\frac{1}{4\pi *8.85*10^{-12} } \frac{-1.6*10^{-19}*1.264*10^{-17}}{(7.5*10^{-9})^{2} }\\ F=3.2345*10^{-10}N

A bullet of mass 120g is fired horizontally into a fixed wooden block with a speed of 20m\s. The bullet is brought to rest in a
prohojiy [21]

Answer:

1) F = 24 N

2) Distance = 1 m

Explanation:

We are given;

Mass; m = 120 g = 0.12 kg

Initial velocity; u = 20 m/s

Final velocity; v = 0 m/s since it came to rest.

Time; t = 0.1 s

We can calculate acceleration from Newton's first equation of motion;

a = (v - u)/t

a = (0 - 20)/0.1

a = -200 m/s²

1) magnitude of the resistance will be;

F = ma

F = 0.12 × (-200)

F = -24 N

Since, we are dealing with the magnitude, we will take the absolute value. Thus, F = 24 N

2) To find the distance moved by the bullet, we know that;

Distance = Average speed × time

Thus;

Distance = ((v + u)/2) × t

Distance = ((0 + 20)/2) × 0.1

Distance = 1 m

A long, straight wire lies in the plane of a circular coil with a radius of 0.018 m. the wire carries a current of 5.6 a and is
iris [78.8K]
(a) The net flux through the coil is zero.
In fact, the magnetic field generated by the wire forms concentric circles around the wire. The wire is placed along the diameter of the coil, so we can imagine as it divides the  coil into two emisphere. Therefore, the magnetic field of the wire is perpendicular to the plane of the coil, but the direction of the field is opposite in the two emispheres. Since the two emispheres have same area, then the magnetic fluxes in the two emispheres are equal but opposite in sign, and so they cancel out when summing them together to find the net flux.

(b) If the wire passes through the center of the coil but it is perpendicular to the plane of the wire, the net flux through the coil is still zero.
In fact, the magnetic field generated by the wire forms concentric lines around the wire, so it is parallel to the plane of the coil. But the flux is equal to
\Phi = BA \cos \theta
where \theta is the angle between the direction of the magnetic field and the perpendicular to the plane of the coil, so in this case \theta=90^{\circ} and so the cosine is zero, therefore the net flux is zero.
