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.

A powerful motorcycle can produce an acceleration of 3.00 m/s2 while traveling at 90.0 km/h. At that speed the forces resisting
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

1185 N

Explanation:

From Newton’s second law of motion,  

F=ma where m= mass of motorcycle, a is acceleration of the motorcycle and F=Force

Net force acting on motorcycle F_{net} is given by  F_{net}=F-f

Where F is force acting on motorcycle and f is frictional force

Substituting F-f for F_{net}

F_{net}=ma hence  ma= F- f Substituting a with 3, m with 245Kg and f with 450N as provided

245*3= F- 450

F=245*3 +450= 1185 N

How would decreasing the volume of the reaction vessel affect each of the following equilibria?2NOBr(g)⇌2NO(g)+Br2(g)
mafiozo [28]

Answer:

The equilibrium position will shift towards the left hand side or reactants side

Explanation:

Decreasing the volume (increasing the pressure) of the system will shift the equilibrium position towards the lefthand side or reactants side. This is because, decreasing the volume (increasing the pressure) implies shifting the equilibrium position towards the side having the least number of moles.

There are two moles of reactants and a total of three moles of products(total). Hence decreasing the volume and increasing the pressure of the gas phase reaction will shift the equilibrium position towards the lefthand side.

svetlana [45]

Answer:

B = 191.26 cm

θ = -14.73°

Explanation:

given,

magnitude of the first displacement(A) = 146 cm

at an angle of 124°

resultant magnitude = 137 cm

and angle made with x-axis by the resultant(R) = 32.0°

component of A in X and Y direction

A x = A cos θ  = 146 cos 120° = -73 cm

A y = A sin θ = 146 sin 120° = 126.4 cm

now component of resultant in x and y direction

R x = 137 cos 35°

    = 112.2 cm

R y = 137 sin 35°

     = 78.6 cm

resultant is the sum of two vectors

R = A + B

R x = A x + B x

B x =  112.2 - (-73) = 185.2 cm

B y = R y - A y

B y = 78.6 - 126.4 = -47.8 cm

magnitude of B

B = \sqrt{B_x^2+B_y^2}

B = \sqrt{185.2^2+-47.8^2}

B = 191.26 cm

angle\theta = tan^{-1}\dfrac{-47.8}{185.2}

θ = -14.73°
