What force holds the lattice structure in place in a crystal?

At the end it depends on the type of crystal.

There are ionic crystals (like sodium chloride), covalent cristals (like diamond) and metallic crystals (like aluminum).

The context of the question may tell you if it is referred to one type of crystal or other.

I gues it may be about salt compounds, which are ionic crystals. In this case, the force that holds the lattice structure in place in a crystal is ionic (electrical attraction between cations and anions).

In the other two cases, the force is covalent bond in one case and metallic bond in the other case.

A deuteron consists of one proton and one neutron. A deuteron moving horizontally enters a uniform, vertical magnetic field of 0
Helen [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the velocity of deuteron be v then force on it in magnetic field

Bqv , B is magnetic field and q is charge on deuteron . This force will provide centripetal force for circular path so

mv² / r = Bqv   m is mass of deuteron and r is radius of circular path

v = Bqr / m

(.5 x 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ x 55.6 x 10⁻² )/ 3.34 x 10⁻²⁷

= 13.31 x 10⁶ m /s

An astronomer at the equator measures the Doppler shift of sunlight at sunset. From this, she calculates that Earth's tangential
Ksivusya [100]

Answer : Radius of Earth is 6,340 Km.

Explanation

It is given that,

Tangential velocity of Earth at the equator, v = 465 m/s

Centripetal acceleration at the equation is, a_c=3.41\times 10^{-2}\ m/s^2

We know that the relation between centripetal acceleration and tangential velocity is :

a_c=\dfrac{v^2}{r}..........(1)

Where,

v is tangential velocity

r is the radius

Putting all values in equation (1)

3.41\times 10^{-2}\ m/s^2=\dfrac{(465 m/s)^2}{r}

r=6340909\ m

or

r=6,340\ Km

The Earth's radius is 6,340 Km. Hence, this is the required solution.

An electromagnetic wave is traveling the +y direction. The maximum magnitude of the electric field associated with the wave is E
cluponka [151]

Answer:

0.83x10^-9 T

Direction is towards +z axis.

Explanation:

E = cB

E = magnitude of electrical 0.25 Em

c = speed of light in a vacuum 3x10^8 m/s

Therefore,

B = E/c = 0.25 ÷ 3x10^8

B = 0.83x10^-9 T

Magnetic fueld of a EM wave acts perpendicularly to its electric field, therefore it's direction is towards the +Z axis
