Suppose you give a 10 Newton push to Ryan on skis (he weighs 50 kg), how much will he accelerate?

Well we can just use F=ma. The force is 10N, the mass is 50 kg, solve for a. Well since we kg and N, no conversion is necessary. So just plugging in the numbers, we get

10N = 50 kg · a

\frac{10N}{50kg}=a

A newton is just \frac{kg·m}{s^{2}}

a=\frac{\frac{10kg·m}{s^{2}}}{50kg}

The s^2 and 50 kg you multiply

a=\frac{10kg·m}{50kg·s^{2}}

The kg's cancel and 10/50 is 1/5

\frac{1}{5}·\frac{m}{s^{2}}

So the acceleration is 1/5 m/s^2

wel

If an electron, a proton, and a deuteron move in a magnetic field with the same momentum perpendicularly, the ratio of the radii of their circular paths will be:

  • 1: √2 : 1

<h3>How is the ratio of the perpendicular parts obtained?</h3>

To obtain the ratio of the perpendicular parts, one begins bdy noting that the mass of the proton = 1m, the mass of deuteron = 2m, and the mass of the alpha particle  = 4m.

The ratio of the radii of the parts can be obtained by finding the root of the masses and dividing this by the charge. When the coefficients are substituted into the formula, we will have:

r = √m/e : √2m/e : √4m/2e

When resolved, the resulting ratios will be:

1: √2 : 1
