A 12.0 V car battery is being used to power the headlights of a car. Each of the two headlights has a power rating of 37.7 Watts

marshall27 [118]

Answer:

3.921*10^19 electrons

Explanation:

To find the number of electron that trough the car battery you first calculate the current by using the following formula, which relates the power with the voltage:

$P=IV$ (1)

P: power of both headlights = 2(37.7W) = 75.4 W

I: current = ?

V: voltage of the battery = 12.0 V

You solve the equation (1) for I:

$I=\frac{P}{V}=\frac{75.4W}{12.0V}=6.283A=6.238\frac{C}{s}$

Next, you use the equivalence 1C = 6.241*10^18 electrons:

$6.238\frac{C}{s}*\frac{6.241*10^{18}\ electrons}{1C}=3.921*10^{19}\ electrons/s$

The number of electrons that cross the battery per second is 3.921*10^19 electrons

A uniform electric field of magnitude 144 kV/m is directed upward in a region of space. A uniform magnetic field of magnitude 0.

snow_lady [41]

Complete Question

A uniform electric field of magnitude 144 kV/m is directed upward in a region of space. A uniform magnetic field of magnitude 0.38 T perpendicular to the electric field also exists in this region. A beam of positively charged particles travels into the region. Determine the speed of the particles at which they will not be deflected by the crossed electric and magnetic fields. (Assume the beam of particles travels perpendicularly to both fields.)

Answer:

The velocity is $v = 3.79 *10^{5} \ m/s$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The magnitude of the electric field is $E = 144 \ kV /m = 144*10^{3} \ V/m$

The magnetic field is $B = 0.38 \ T$

The force due to the electric field is mathematically represented as

$F_e = E * q$

and

The force due to the magnetic field is mathematically represented as

$F_b = q * v * B * sin(\theta )$

Now given that it is perpendicular , $\theta = 90$

=> $F_b = q * v * B * sin(90)$

=> $F_b = q * v * B$

Now given that it is not deflected it means that

$F_ e = F_b$

=> $q * E = q * v * B$

=> $v = \frac{E}{B }$

substituting values

$v = \frac{ 144 *10^{3}}{0.38 }$

$v = 3.79 *10^{5} \ m/s$

Q1- the speed will increase because the particles will have more energy which causes them to move faster

trasher [3.6K]

<h3># Question </h3>

Q1- the speed will increase because the particles will have more energy which causes them to move faster

Explanation:

<h3>With an increase in temperature, the particles gain kinetic energy and move faster. The actual average speed of the particles depends on their mass as well as the temperature – heavier particles move more slowly than lighter ones at the same temperature. </h3>

An astronaut named Speedo takes a trip to Sirius, which is located a distance of 8 lightyears from the Earth. If the spaceship m

Softa [21]

Answer:

a. 10 years

b. 6 years

c. 12 years behind

Explanation:

speed of light c = 3x $10^{8}$ m/s

distance of sirius from earth = 8 lightyears = 8 x c x 60 x 60 x 24 x 365 = 252288000c meters

speed of spaceship = 0.8c

time taken to reach sirius = distance covered divided by speed

t = d/s = 252288000c/0.8c = 315360000 sec

1 year = 60 x 60 x 24 x 365 sec = 31536000 sec

315360000 sec = 315360000/31536000 = 10 yrs

the time as observed by Goslo will be shorter than the real time as measured within the ship due to relativistic effects. using the relativistic relation for time dilation we have

t' = t $\sqrt{1 - \frac{v^{2} }{c^{2} } }$

since v = 0.8c

v/c = 0.8

where t' is the relativistic time as observed by Goslo,

t is the time within the ship

t' = 10 x $\sqrt{1 - 0.8^{2} }$ = 6 yrs

If speedo turns around immediately after reaching sirius, his total distance will be 252288000c x 2 = 50457600c meter

time taken = 50457600c/0.8 = 630720000 sec = 20 yrs

time within the ship will be calculated from time dilation

t' = t $\sqrt{1 - \frac{v^{2} }{c^{2} } }$

t' = 20 x $\sqrt{1 - 0.8^{2} }$ = 378432000 sec = 12 years behind
