An electron is released from rest on the axis of a uniform positively charged ring, 0.200 m from the ring's center. If the linea

Answer:

Velocity of the electron at the centre of the ring, $v=1.37\times10^7\ \rm m/s$

Explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

Linear charge density of the ring= $0.1\ \rm \mu C/m$
Radius of the ring R=0.2 m
Distance of point from the centre of the ring=x=0.2 m

Total charge of the ring

$Q=0.1\times2\pi R\\Q=0.1\times2\pi 0.4\\Q=0.251\ \rm \mu C$

Potential due the ring at a distance x from the centre of the rings is given by

$V=\dfrac{kQ}{\sqrt{(R^2+x^2)}}\\$

The potential difference when the electron moves from x=0.2 m to the centre of the ring is given by

$\Delta V=\dfrac{kQ}{R}-\dfrac{kQ}{\sqrt{(R^2+x^2)}}\\\Delta V={9\times10^9\times0.251\times10^{-6}} \left( \dfrac{1}{0.4}-\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{(0.4^2+0.2^2)}} \right )\\\Delta V=5.12\times10^2\ \rm V$

Let $\Delta U$ be the change in potential Energy given by

$\Delta U=e\times \Delta V\\\Delta U=1.67\times10^{-19}\times5.12\times10^{2}\\\Delta U=8.55\times10^{-17}\ \rm J$

Change in Potential Energy of the electron will be equal to the change in kinetic Energy of the electron

$\Delta U=\dfrac{mv^2}{2}\\8.55\times10^{-17}=\dfrac{9.1\times10^{-31}v^2}{2}\\v=1.37\times10^7\ \rm m/s$

So the electron will be moving with $v=1.37\times10^7\ \rm m/s$

Consider a skateboarder who starts from rest at the top of ramp that is inclined at an angle of 18.0 ∘ to the horizontal.

kotegsom [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

v= u + at

v is final velocity , u is initial velocity . a is acceleration and t is time

Initial velocity u = 0 . Putting the given values in the equation

v = 0 + g sin 18 x 3.5

= 10.6 m /s

Two hockey pucks with mass 0.1 kg slide across the ice and collide. Before

RideAnS [48]

The velocity of pluck 1 is 12 m/s west.

<h3>What is the conservation of momentum?</h3>

The principle of the conservation of the linear momentum states that momentum before collision is equal to momentum after collision.

Now given that;

m1u1 + m2u2 = m1v1 + m2v2

(0.1 * 15) - (0.1 * 12) = 0.1* v + (0.1 * 15)

1.5 - 1.2 = 0.1v + 1.5

0.3 - 1.5 = 0.1v

v = -1.2/0.1

v = - 12 m/s

Hence, the velocity of pluck 1 is 12 m/s west.
