Hi, thank you for posting your question here at Brainly.

This problem could be solved using this equation:

Diffraction limit = 1.22*wavelength/diameter

diameter = 0.8 cm = 0.008 m
wavelength = 500E-9 m

Diffraction limit = 1.22(500E-9)/0.008
Diffraction limit = 0.00007625

A positively charged particle of mass 7.2 x 10-8 kg is traveling due east with a speed of 88 m/s and enters a 0.6-T uniform magn
Marianna [84]

Answer:

q = 8.57 10⁻⁵ mC

Explanation:

For this exercise let's use Newton's second law

         F = ma

where force is magnetic force

        F = q v x B

the bold are vectors, if we write the module of this expression we have

         F = qv B sin θ

as the particle moves perpendicular to the field, the angle is θ= 90º

        F = q vB

the acceleration of the particle is centripetal

        a = v² / r

we substitute

        qvB = m v² / r

         qBr = m v

          q =\frac{m\  v}{B\  r}

The exercise indicates the time it takes in the route that is carried out with constant speed, therefore we can use

          v = d / t

the distance is ¼ of the circle,

          d = \frac{1}{4} \  2\pi  r

           d =\frac{\pi }{2r}

we substitute

           v =  \frac{\pi  r}{2t}

           r = \frac{2 \ t  \ v}{\pi }

           

let's calculate

           r =\frac{2 \ 2.2  \ 10^{-3} \ 88}{\pi } 2 2.2 10-3 88 /πpi

           r = 123.25 m

         

let's substitute the values

           q = \frac{ 7.2 \ 10^{-8} \ 88}{ 0.6 \ 123.25}7.2 10-8 88 / 0.6 123.25

            q = 8.57 10⁻⁸ C

Let's reduce to mC

           q = 8.57 10⁻⁸ C (10³ mC / 1C)

           q = 8.57 10⁻⁵ mC

A sled slides down a hill with friction between the sled and hill but negligible alr resistance. Which of the following must be
Andreyy89

Answer:

A) The sum of the kinetic energy and the gravitational potential energy changes by an amount equal to the energy dissipated by friction,

Explanation:

  • The kinetic energy is the energy that the object has and is defied by the work that is needed to accelerate the body.
  • The gravitational potential is a mechanism by which an equal amount of energy is being transferred per unit mass that is needed for the object to move from the specific location.
  • Hence when the sled moves down the hill with the force of gravity it has negligible resistance as an equal amount of energy is dissipated.
