A) d. 10T

When a charged particle moves at right angle to a uniform magnetic field, it experiences a force whose magnitude os given by

F=qvB

where q is the charge of the particle, v is the velocity, B is the strength of the magnetic field.

This force acts as a centripetal force, keeping the particle in a circular motion - so we can write

qvB = \frac{mv^2}{r}

which can be rewritten as

v=\frac{qB}{mr}

The velocity can be rewritten as the ratio between the lenght of the circumference and the period of revolution (T):

\frac{2\pi r}{T}=\frac{qB}{mr}

So, we get:

T=\frac{2\pi m r^2}{qB}

We see that this the period of revolution is directly proportional to the mass of the particle: therefore, if the second particle is 10 times as massive, then its period will be 10 times longer.

B) a. f/10

The frequency of revolution of a particle in uniform circular motion is

f=\frac{1}{T}

where

f is the frequency

T is the period

We see that the frequency is inversely proportional to the period. Therefore, if the period of the more massive particle is 10 times that of the smaller particle:

T' = 10 T

Then its frequency of revolution will be:

f'=\frac{1}{T'}=\frac{1}{(10T)}=\frac{f}{10}

A 0.5 kg stone is raised from 1m to 2m height from the ground. what is the change in potential energy of the stone?
Usimov [2.4K]

Given: The mass of stone (m) = 0.5 kg

Raised from heights (h₁) = 1.0 m to (h₂) = 2.0 m

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

To find: The change in potential energy of the stone

Formula: The potential energy (P) = mgh

where, all alphabets are in their usual meanings.

Now, we shall calculate the change in potential energy of the stone

Δ P = P₂ - P₁ = mg (h₂ - h₁)

or,                = 0.5 kg ×9.8 m/s² ×(2.0 m - 1.0 m)

or,                = 4.9 J

Hence, the required change in the potential energy of the stone will be 4.9 J

Melting Ice is what kind of reaction
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

Answer is Endothermic Reaction

Explanation:

Basically, melting ice is an endothermic reaction because the ice absorbs (heat) energy, which causes a change to occur.

I hope it's helpful!!
