Answer:

a) FE = 0.764FG

b) a = 2.30 m/s^2

Explanation:

a) To compare the gravitational and electric force over the particle you calculate the following ratio:

\frac{F_E}{F_G}=\frac{qE}{mg}              (1)

FE: electric force

FG: gravitational force

q: charge of the particle = 1.6*10^-19 C

g: gravitational acceleration = 9.8 m/s^2

E: electric field = 103N/C

m: mass of the particle = 2.2*10^-15 g = 2.2*10^-18 kg

You replace the values of all parameters in the equation (1):

\frac{F_E}{F_G}=\frac{(1.6*10^{-19}C)(103N/C)}{(2.2*10^{-18}kg)(9.8m/s^2)}\\\\\frac{F_E}{F_G}=0.764

Then, the gravitational force is 0.764 times the electric force on the particle

b)

The acceleration of the particle is obtained by using the second Newton law:

F_E-F_G=ma\\\\a=\frac{qE-mg}{m}

you replace the values of all variables:

a=\frac{(1.6*10^{-19}C)(103N/C)-(2.2*10^{-18}kg)(9.8m/s^2)}{2.2*10^{-18}kg}\\\\a=-2.30\frac{m}{s^2}

hence, the acceleration of the particle is 2.30m/s^2, the minus sign means that the particle moves downward.

Explain any two areas affected by migration​
mel-nik [20]

Answer:

<h2>Migration is affected by various factors like age, sex, marital status, education, occupation, employment etc. Age and sex are main demographic factors that affect the migration. Men, generally, migrate to other places quite often though there are more women who migrate to husbands' places after marriage.</h2>

You toss a rock up vertically at an initial speed of 39 feet per second and release it at an initial height of 6 feet. The rock
3241004551 [841]

Answer:

2.583 s, 29.77 ft and 1.219 s

Explanation:

Using equation of motion and taken the motion upward as positive, also a = g ( acceleration due to gravity) = - 32 fts⁻², V= 39 fts⁻¹ V₁ is final velocity, y is the distance in ft from the ground

H = 6 ft, the height from which it is tossed

V₁ = V + gt = V - gt

at maximum height the body came to rest momentarily V₁ = 0

0 = V - gt

-V = -gt

- 39 / -32 = t

t time to reach maximum height = 1.219 s

To Maximum height reached can be calculated with the formula

V₁² = V² + 2g( y - H) where H is the initial height reached by the tossed rock

where V₁ is the final velocity at maximum height which = 0

0 = V² - 2g(y-H) where y is the distance traveled from the ground

-V² = -2g(y-H)

₋V² / -2g = y-H

(V²/2g) + H = y in ft

(39² / (2 × 32)) + 6

y = 29.77 ft

The total time it will be in air can be calculated with the formula below

y = H + Vt - 0.5gt² from y-H = ut + 0.5at²

0.5gt² - Vt - H = 0 since the body returned to the ground ( y = 0)

0.5gt² - Vt - H = 0

using quadratic formula

- (-V)² ± √ ((-V²) - 4 × 0.5g × -H) / (2 × 0.5 × g)

(V ± √ (V² + 2gH)) ÷ g

substitute the values into the expression

t = (39 + √(39² + (2×-32× 6)))/ 32 or (39 - √ (39² + (2 × -32×6))/ 32

t = (39 + √(1521 +384))/32 = (39 + √1905) / 32  = 2.583 s

t = (39 - √1905) / 32 =  -0.15 s

The will remain in air (V ± √ (V² + 2gH)) / g seconds. It will reach a maximum height of (V²/2g) + H feet after V/g seconds

m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

817.5 Pa

Explanation:

From Bernoulli's equation, considering thst there is no height difference then

P1+½d(v1)²=P2+½d(v2)²

P1-P2=½d(v2²-v1²)

∆P=½d(v2²-v1²)

Where P represent pressure, d is density and v is velocity. Subscripts 1 and 2 represent inside and outside. ∆P is tge change in pressure

Given the speed at roof top as 128 km/h, we convert it to m/s as follows

128*1000/3600=35.555555555555=35.56 m/s

Velocity at the bottom of roof is 0 m/s

Density is given as 1.293 kg/m³

∆P=½*1.293*(35.56²-0)=817.5 Pa
