A rock is dropped into the Grand Canyon. It takes 18 seconds to hit the bottom. Calculate how deep the canyon is.

1 answer:

6 0

The distance it falls is given by
x = (1/2)at^2
where a = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s^2
x = (1/2)(9.8)(18)^2
x = 1587.6 m
The answer is 1587.6 meters

Electrons and protons travel from the Sun to the Earth at a typical velocity of 3.83 ✕ 105 m/s in the positive x-direction. Thou

Leona [35]

Answer:

$F=2.84*10^{-26}N$ & -y direction

$F=2.84*10^{-26}N$ & +y direction

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Speed of electron $V_e=3.83 * 10^5 m/s$ +x direction

Earths magnetic field $B_e=3.04 * 10^-^8$ +z direction

Generally the equation for magnetic force $F_m$ is mathematically given by

$F=q(V_e*B_e)$

where

$q=1.6*10^{-19}c\\\=i*\=z=-\=j$

$F=1.6*10^{-19}(3.83 * 10^5 m/s*3.04 * 10^-^8)$

$F=-2.84*10^{-26}N \=j$

Magnitude & Direction

$F=2.84*10^{-26}N$ -y direction

Generally the equation for magnitude and direction of the magnetic force on an electron. is mathematically given by

$\=F'=-1.6*10^{-19}(3.83 * 10^5 m/s*3.04 * 10^-^8)$

$\=F'=-2.84*10^{-26}N \=j$

Magnitude & Direction

$F=2.84*10^{-26}N$ & +y direction

Calculate the current through a 3.0 Ď‰ resistor with a voltage of 9.0 v across it.

gulaghasi [49]

Answer: 3 A

Explanation:

According to<u> Ohm's law</u>:

$V=R.I$

Where:

$V=9 V$ is the voltage

$R=3\Omega$ is the resistance of the resistor

$I$ is the electric current (the value we want to find)

Isolating $I$ :

$I=\frac{V}{R}$

$I=\frac{9 V}{3\Omega}$

Finally:

$I=3 A$
