Answer:

the force experienced by both particles will be of same magnitude as the magnitude of charge is same for both particles but with different sign, the acceleration of both particles will be same in magnitude but opposite in direction, the direction of free electron will be opposite to the direction of electric field whereas the direction of proton will be in the direction of electric field,

Explanation:

the force experienced by both particles can be calculated by the formula

F=|q|E

the acceleration can be calculated by Newton's 2nd law i.e F=ma

the direction of electric field is always towards the positive charge so proton will be directed towards electric field and free electron will be directed away from the electric field.

The angular velocity, ω= 
2π/t; t = 24 hrs = 24 x 3600 seconds = 86400 s
ω = 7.27 x 10⁻⁵
v = ωr
= 7.27 x 10⁻⁵ x 3242.8 x 1.6 x 1000 (converting miles to meters)
= 377.2 m/s

What charge accumulates on the plates of a 2.0-μF air-filled capacitor when it is charged until the potential difference across
enot [183]

Answer:

0.0002 C.

Explanation:

Charge: This can be defined as the ratio of current to time flowing in a circuit. The S.I unit of charge is Coulombs (C)

Mathematically, charge can be expressed as

Q = CV ................................. Equation 1

Where Q = amount of charge, C = capacitance of the capacitor, V = potential difference across the plates.

Given: C = 2.0-μF = 2×10⁻⁶ F, V = 100 V.

Substitute into equation 1

Q = 2×10⁻⁶× 100

Q = 2×10⁻⁴ C

Q = 0.0002 C.

The amount of charge accumulated = 0.0002 C

Which formula describes acceleration?<br><br> m/s^2<br><br><br> m/s<br><br><br> s/m<br><br><br> m2
Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

m/s^2

Explanation:

Force = mass × acceleration

kgm/s^2 = kg × acceleration

where acceleration = Force ÷ mass

= kg m/s^2 ÷ kg

:Acceleration = m/s^2
