Answer:

K.E = 15.57 x 10⁻¹⁷ J

Explanation:

First, we find the acceleration of the electron by using the formula of electric field:

E = F/q

F = Eq

but, from Newton's 2nd Law:

F = ma

Comparing both equations, we get:

ma = Eq

a = Eq/m

where,

E = electric field intensity = 120 N/C

q = charge of electron = 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C

m = Mass of electron = 9.1 x 10⁻³¹ kg

Therefore,

a = (120 N/C)(1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C)/(9.1 x 10⁻³¹ kg)

a = 2.11 x 10¹³ m/s²

Now, we need to find the final velocity of the electron. Using 3rd equation of motion:

2as = Vf² - Vi²

where,

Vf = Final Velocity = ?

Vi = Initial Velocity = 1.4 x 10⁷ m/s

s = distance = 3.5 m

Therefore,

(2)(2.11 x 10¹³ m/s²)(3.5 m) = Vf² - (1.4 x 10⁷)²

Vf = √(1.477 x 10¹⁴ m²/s² + 1.96 x 10¹⁴ m²/s²)

Vf = 1.85 x 10⁷ m/s

Now, we find the kinetic energy of electron at the end of the motion:

K.E = (0.5)(m)(Vf)²

K.E = (0.5)(9.1 x 10⁻³¹ kg)(1.85 x 10⁷ m/s)²

<u>K.E = 15.57 x 10⁻¹⁷ J</u>

Two wires A and B with circular cross-section are made of the same metal and have equal lengths, but the resistance of wire A is
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

r₁/r₂ = 1/2 = 0.5

Explanation:

The resistance of a wire is given by the following formula:

R = ρL/A

where,

R = Resistance of wire

ρ = resistivity of the material of wire

L = Length of wire

A = Cross-sectional area of wire = πr²

r = radius of wire

Therefore,

R = ρL/πr²

<u>FOR WIRE A</u>:

R₁ = ρ₁L₁/πr₁²   -------- equation 1

<u>FOR WIRE B</u>:

R₂ = ρ₂L₂/πr₂²   -------- equation 2

It is given that resistance of wire A is four times greater than the resistance of wire B.

R₁ = 4 R₂

using values from equation 1 and equation 2:

ρ₁L₁/πr₁² = 4ρ₂L₂/πr₂²

since, the material and length of both wires are same.

ρ₁ = ρ₂ = ρ

L₁ = L₂ = L

Therefore,

ρL/πr₁² = 4ρL/πr₂²

1/r₁² = 4/r₂²

r₁²/r₂² = 1/4

taking square root on both sides:

<u>r₁/r₂ = 1/2 = 0.5</u>
