An electron is released from rest at the negative plate of a parallel plate capacitor. The charge per unit area on each plate is

= 2.1 × 10^-7 C/m^2, and the plates are separated by a distance of 1.2 × 10^-2 m. How fast is the electron moving just before it reaches the positive plate?

Explanation:

An electron is released from rest, u = 0

We know that charge per unit area is called the surface charge density i.e. \sigma=\dfrac{q}{A}=2.1\times 10^{-7}\ C/m^2

Distance between the plates, d=1.2\times 10^{-2}\ m

Let E is the electric field,

E=\dfrac{\sigma}{\epsilon_o}

E=\dfrac{2.1\times 10^{-7}}{8.85\times 10^{-12}}

E = 23728.81 N/C

Now, ma=qE

a=\dfrac{qE}{m}

a=\dfrac{1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 23728.81}{9.1\times 10^{-31}}

a=4.17\times 10^{15}\ m/s^2

Let v is the speed of the electron just before it reaches the positive plate. So, third equation of motion becomes :

v^2=2ad

v^2=2\times 4.17\times 10^{15}\times 1.2\times 10^{-2}

v=10.003\times 10^6\ m/s

Hence, this is the required solution.

What is one advantage of doing a field experiment instead of a laboratory experiment
Flauer [41]

It mimics the real world accurately

Explanation:

Experiments conducted in the field clearly presents the real world at it is to the scientist. Hardly can any part be controlled precisely and this gives a near to perfect scenario.

  • In the laboratory, for example, an organism is isolated from its environment and might not fully display its natural instinct and physiological capabilities.
  • Most laboratory set up are driven towards a model instead of real life settings.
  • The laboratory is more controlled and less varied and might truly represent the real world. It will only portray a part of the real world and series of further tests might have to be carried out to have a better model.

An object is projected with initial speed v0 from the edge of the roof of a building that has height H. The initial velocity of
Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

Explanation:

Initial velocity u = V₀ in upward direction so it will be negative

u = - V₀

Displacement s = H . It is downwards so it will be positive

Acceleration = g ( positive as it is also downwards )

Using the formula

v² = u² + 2 g s

v² = (- V₀ )² + 2 g H

= V₀² + 2 g H .

v = √ ( V₀² + 2 g H )

alexira [117]

Answer: Technician B only

Explanation:

What actually controls the shifting in a automatic transmission is the vehicle's internal computer that helps shift the gears automatically. This includes a Control Module that adjusts the current provided to solenoids inside to control the gears The hydraulic system is used to select gears dependent on the transmission fluid's pressure applied.
