smartphones break due to forces acting on the material.

force causes material to deform.

material is often brittle and cracks due to a limit on hardness / electricity in screens.

newton's 2nd law states

force = DV / DT

to help phones we must slow down change in momentum to reduce the force

thus we must use some form of damping in the form of a case .

the case is typically able to deform and rubber is elastic converting the kinetic energy to heat as it deforms instead of transferring it through the screen.

therefore the change in velocity occurs over a longer time. therefore the impulse decreases

Initial velocity 10 m/s accelerates at 5 m/s for 2 seconds whats the final velocity

Answer:

The final velocity is 20 m/s.

Explanation:

Constant Acceleration Motion

It's a type of motion in which the velocity of an object changes by an equal amount in every equal period of time.

Being a the constant acceleration, vo the initial speed, and t the time, the final speed can be calculated as follows:

$v_f=v_o+at$

The provided data is: vo=10 m/s, $a=5\ m/s^2$ , t=2 s. The final velocity is:

$v_f=10~m/s+5\ m/s^2\cdot 2\ s$

$v_f=20\ m/s$

The final velocity is 20 m/s.

What is the largest possible magnitude of the acceleration of the electron due to the magnetic field?

Alina [70]

Thank you for posting your question here at brainly. But your question seems incomplete. I will assume you based the situation below:

An electrons moves at 2.0x10^6 m/s through a region in which there is a magnetic field of unspecified direction and magnitude 7.4x10^-2 T.

The largest possible magnitude of the acceleration of the electron due to the magnetic field is = 2.6 × 10 ¹⁶ m / s ²
