An electron is released form rest in a region of space where a uniform electric field is present. Joanna claims that its kinetic

and potential energies both increase as it moves from its initial position to its final position. Sonya claims that they both decrease. Which one, if either, is correct?
Joanna, because the electron moves opposite to the direction of the field
Sonya, because the electron moves opposite to the direction of the field.
Joanna, because the electron moves in the direction of the field.
Sonya, because the electron moves in the direction of the field.
Neither, because the kinetic energy increases while the electron moves to a point at a higher potential.

Answer:

Neither.

Explanation:

When an electron is released from rest, in an uniform electric field, it will accelerate moving in a direction opposite to the field (as the field has the direction that it would take a positive test charge, and the electron carries a negative charge).

It will move towards a point  with a higher potential, so its kinetic energy will increase, while its potential energy will decrease:

⇒ ΔK + ΔU = 0 ⇒ ΔK = -ΔU = - (-e*ΔV)

As ΔV>0, we conclude that the electric potential energy decreases while the kinetic energy increases in the same proportion, in order to energy be conserved, in absence of non-conservative forces.

Answer:

solar wind

Explanation:

the sun's atmosphere is made of hydrogen which itself made subatomic particle. These particle are constantly boiling off the sun and streaming outward at very speed. So, the sun's magnetic field and particles are called solar wind.

A linear network has a current input 7.5 cos(10t + 30°) A and a voltage output 120 cos(10t + 75°) V. Determine the associated im
Leona [35]

Answer:

16∠45° Ω

Explanation:

Applying,

Z = V/I................... Equation 1

Where Z = Impedance, V = Voltage output, I = current input.

Given: V = 120cos(10t+75°), = 120∠75°,  I = 7.5cos(10t+30) = 7.5∠30°

Substitute these values into equation 1

Z = 120cos(10t+75°)/7.5cos(10t+30)

Z = 120∠75°/ 7.5∠30°

Z = 16∠(75°-30)

Z = 16∠45° Ω

Hence the impedance of the linear network is 16∠45° Ω

Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

The tension in the rope is 20 N

Solution:

As per the question:

Mass of the object, M = 2 kg

Density of water, \rho_{w} = 1000\ kg/m^{3}

Density of the object, \rho_{ob} = 500\kg/m^{3}

Acceleration due to gravity, g = 10\ m/s^{2}

Now,

From the fig.1:

'N' represents the Bouyant force and T represents tension in the rope.

Suppose, the volume of the block be V:

V = \frac{M}{\rho_{ob}}              (1)

Also, we know that Bouyant force is given by:

N = \rho_{w}Vg

Using eqn (1):

N = \rho_{w}\frac{M}{\rho_{ob}}g

N = 1000\frac{2}{500}\times 10 = 40\ N

From the fig.1:

N = Mg + T

40 = 2(10) + T

T = 40 - 20 = 20 N

N = \rho_{w}Vg
