As the centripetal force<span> acts upon an </span>object moving <span>in a </span>circle<span> at constant speed, the </span>force<span> always acts inward as the velocity of the </span>object<span> is directed tangent to the </span>circle. ... In fact, whenever the unbalanced centripetal force<span> acts perpendicular to the direction of </span>motion<span>, the speed of the </span>object will<span> remain constant.</span>
Newton’s 2nd law states that Force is equal to
the product of mass (m) and acceleration (a):
F = m a --->
1
While in magnetic forces, force can also be expressed as:
F = q v B --->
2
where,
q = total charge
v = velocity = 45 cm / s = 0.45 m / s
B = the magnetic field = 85 T
First we solve for the total charge, q:
q = 3.8 × 10^-23 g (1 mol / 23 g) (6.022 × 10^23 electrons / mol) (1.602 ×
10^-19 C / electron)
q = 1.594 × 10^-19 C
We equate equations 1 and 2 then solve for acceleration a:
m a = q v B
a = q v B / m
a = [1.594 × 10^-19 C * 0.45 m / s * 85 T] / 3.8 × 10-26 kg
a = 160,437,862.2 m/s^2
Therefore the maximum acceleration of Na ions is about 160 × 10^6 m/s^2.
Answer:
decreases
Explanation:
a=[v-u]/t
as time increases acceleration decreases and vice versa
