Answer:

Because of inertia (Newton's First Law of motion)

Explanation:

According to Newton's First Law of motion:

"An object at rest (or in motion at constant velocity) will tend to stay at rest (or tend to keep moving with same velocity) unless acted upon an unbalanced force"

In this problem, the object we are analyzing is the coffee cup.

At the beginning, the cup is at rest, together with the car.

Later, the car starts moving when the light turns green.

If we apply Newton's First Law of motion to the cup, we see that the coffee cup tends to keep its state of rest: for this reason, as the car moves forward, the coffee in the cup will spill backward, into the rear seat. This property of an object to mantain its state of motion is also called as inertia.

The electron gun in a television tube is used to accelerate electrons with mass 9.109 × 10−31 kg from rest to 3 × 107 m/s within
zaharov [31]

Answer:

Electric field, E = 40608.75 N/C

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of electrons, m=9.1\times 10^{-31}\ kg

Initial speed of electron, u = 0

Final speed of electrons, v=3\times 10^7\ m/s

Distance traveled, s = 6.3 cm = 0.063 m

Firstly, we will find the acceleration of the electron using third equation of motion as :

a=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2s}

a=\dfrac{(3\times 10^7)^2}{2\times 0.063}

a=7.14\times 10^{15}\ m/s^2

Now we will find the electric field required in the tube as :

ma=qE

E=\dfrac{ma}{q}

E=\dfrac{9.1\times 10^{-31}\times 7.14\times 10^{15}}{1.6\times 10^{-19}}

E = 40608.75 N/C

So, the electric field required in the tube is 40608.75 N/C. Hence, this is the required solution.
