Answer:

Explanation:

  • given S = distance from the first = 3.20cm = 0.032m, t = 1.30×10−8 s
  • q = 1.6 x 10_19C
  • using S = at^2/2
  • acceleration = 0.032 X 2 /(1.30×10−8)^2

a = 3.79 x 10^14m/s^2

  • From F = ma
  • F = qE
  • ma = qE

E = ma /q = 9.11 x 10^-31 x 3.79 x 10^14 / 1.6 x 10^-19

E = magnitude of this electric field. = 2156.3N/C

b) Find the speed of the electron when it strikes the second plate ; V^2 = 2as

= 2 X 3.79 x 10^14 X 0.032

= 4.92 X 10^6m/s

With what minimum speed must you toss a 110 g ball straight up to just touch the 11-m-high roof of the gymnasium if you release
Sholpan [36]

Answer:

 v = 13.79 m/s

Explanation:

given,

mass of ball = 110 g

height = 11 m

ball is released from = 1.3 m

minimum speed = ?

using conservation of energy

Potential energy is conserved in the form of kinetic energy

P E =KE

m g h= \dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

v^2 = 2 g h

v=\sqrt{2 g h}

v=\sqrt{2\times 9.8 \times (11-1.3)}

v=\sqrt{2\times 9.8 \times 9.7}

v=\sqrt{190.12}

       v = 13.79 m/s

A boxer can hit a heavy bag with great force. Why can't he hit a piece of tissue paper in midair with the same amount of force?
12345 [234]

Answer:

This is due to impulse

Explanation:

Impulse equal to mΔv and FΔt

You can set these equal as mΔv = FΔt

When a boxer punches a tissue, it is like punching a cushion or a pillow. The time that the hit takes is much grater than if they were to hit something solid. In addition, the change in velocity of the boxer's arm would be much greater when they hit a punching bag. In this equation, the greater the time, the less force that is needed.

Based on the diagram which of the following statements is true of a helium atom
snow_lady [41]

Answer: Option 2

Explanation:

Option 1 is wrong because there are 2 protons and 2 neutrons in nucleus.

Option 3 is wrong because there are two electrons moving around nucleus.

Option 4 is wrong because electrons are negatively charged and are moving around the nucleus.

Option 5 is wrong because there equal amount of protons and electrons with 2 each.

The kinetic energy of a sliding block came from the:
patriot [66]

Answer:

Correct sentence: gravitational potential energy of the mass on the hook.

Explanation:

The mechanical energy of a body or a physical system is the sum of its kinetic energy and potential energy. It is a scalar magnitude related to the movement of bodies and to forces of mechanical origin, such as gravitational force and elastic force, whose main exponent is Hooke's Law. Both are conservative forces. The mechanical energy associated with the movement of a body is kinetic energy, which depends on its mass and speed. On the other hand, the mechanical energy of potential origin or potential energy, has its origin in the conservative forces, comes from the work done by them and depends on their mass and position. The principle of conservation of energy relates both energies and expresses that the sum of both energies, the potential energy and the kinetic energy of a body or a physical system, remains constant. This sum is known as the mechanical energy of the body or physical system.

Therefore, the kinetic energy of the block comes from the transformation in this of the gravitational potential energy of the suspended mass as it loses height with respect to the earth, keeping the mechanical energy of the system constant.

Car a runs a red light and broadsides car b, which is stopped and waiting to make a left turn. car a has a mass of 1,800kg. car
frez [133]

The law of conservation of momentum tells us that momentum is conserved, therefore total initial momentum should be equal to total final momentum. In this case, we can expressed this mathematically as:

mA vA + mB vB = m v

where, m is the mass in kg, v is the velocity in m/s

since m is the total mass, m = mA + mB, we can write the equation as:

mA vA + mB vB = (mA + mB) v

furthermore, car B was at a stop signal therefore vB = 0, hence

mA vA + 0 = (mA + mB) v

1800 (vA) = (1800 + 1500) (7.1 m/s)

<span>vA = 13.02 m/s</span>
