Answer:

Explanation:

q = - 15 n C = - 15 x 10^-9 c

(a) d = 0.9 cm = 0.009 m

electric field on proton, E = Kq/d²

E = 9 x 10^9 x 15 x 10^-9 / (0.009)²

E = 1.67 x 10^6 N/C

Force on proton, F = charge on proton x Electric field

F = 1.6 x 10^-19 x 1.67 x 10^6 = 2.67 x 10^-13 N

acceleration of proton, a = F / m

a = (2.67 x 10^-13) / (1.67 x 10^-27)

a = 1.6 x 10^14 m/s²

(B) the direction of acceleration is towards the bead, as the force is attractive.

electric field on proton, E = Kq/d²

E = 9 x 10^9 x 15 x 10^-9 / (0.009)²

E = 1.67 x 10^6 N/C

Force on electron, F = charge on electron x Electric field

F = 1.6 x 10^-19 x 1.67 x 10^6 = 2.67 x 10^-13 N

acceleration of proton, a = F / m

a = (2.67 x 10^-13) / (9.1 x 10^-31)

a = 3 x 10^17 m/s²

(D) the direction of acceleration is away from the bead, as the force is repulsive.

A strontium vapor laser beam is reflected from the surface of a CD onto a wall. The brightest spot is the reflected beam at an a

sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

$d=1.29*10^{-6}m$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Distance of wall from CD $D=1.4$

Second bright fringe $y_2= 0.803 m$

Let

Strontium vapor laser has a wavelength \lambda= 431 nm=>431 *10^{-9}m

Generally the equation for Interference is mathematically given by

$y=frac{n*\lambda*D}{d}$

Where

$d=\frac{n*\lambda*D}{y}$

$d=\frac{2*431 *10^{-9}m*1.4}{0.803}$

$d=1.29*10^{-6}m$

<h3>What is a concave mirror?</h3>

A concave mirror is also referred to as a converging mirror and it can be defined as a type of mirror that is designed and developed with a reflective surface that is typically curved inward and away from the source of light.

Basically, one common use of a convex mirror include the following:

Shaving mirrors

A disc with a mass of 1 kg moves horizontally to the right with a speed of 7 m/s on a table with negligible friction when it col

Elodia [21]

Answer:

1.6 m/s

Explanation:

First you need to find the momentums of each disc by multiplying their velocities with mass.

disc 1: 7*1= 7 kg m/s

disc 2: 1*9= 9 kg m/s

Second, you need to find the total momentum of the system by adding the momentums of each sphere.

9+7= 16 kg m/s

Because momentum is conserved, this is equal to the momentum of the composite body.

Finally, to find the composite body's velocity, divide its total momentum by its mass. This is because mass*velocity=momentum

16/10=1.6

The velocity of the composite body is 1.6 m/s.

If the resultant of two velocity vectors of equal magnitude is also of the same magnitude, then which statement must be correct?

Tamiku [17]

The correct option is C) The angle between the vectors is 120°.

Why?

We can solve the problem and find the correct option using the Law of Cosine.

Let A and B, the given two sides and R the resultant (sum),

Then,

$R=A=B$

So, using the law of cosines, we have:

$R^{2}=A^{2}+B^{2}+2ABCos(\alpha)\\ \\A^{2}=A^{2}+A^{2}+2*A*A*Cos(\alpha)\\\\0=A^{2}+2*A^{2}*Cos(\alpha)\\\\Cos(\alpha)=-\frac{A^{2}}{2*A^{2}}=-\frac{1}{2}\\\\\alpha =Cos(-\frac{1}{2})^{-1}=120\°$

Hence, we have that the angle between the vectors is 120°. The correct option is C) The angle between the vectors is 120°

Have a nice day!
