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 0.150 kg baseball has 118 j of KE. how fast is the ball moving?(unit=m/s)
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

Explanation 118 = (1/2) * 0.15 * v² 118 = 0.075 * v² v² = 1573.33 m/s ... since KE = m/2*V^2 , then : V = √2KE/m = √20*118/1.5 = 39.67 m//sec ( 142.8 km/h ; 88.75 mph).:

Why is the solar system commonly represented as a scale model?
topjm [15]
The actual size of the Solar system is too big to show without making a much smaller model. If someone wants to see the orientation of the planets a model has to be made so we can see it without flying out too space.

Taden has found a table of the atmospheric layers of the Sun. However, he can’t make out the names of the layers in the chart.
zhenek [66]

The sun is a ball of hot gases containing different kinds of elements at different cores. It has a very high temperature that radiates all throughout the Milky Way galaxy. The sun has three main parts; photosphere, chromospheres and corona. The outer core of a star located at the chromospheres contains mostly of hydrogen. Inside the hydrogen is helium then carbon, oxygen, neon, magnesium silicon and the inert gas. The photosphere is scattered by the loose electrons in the corona’s plasma.
