You are working in cooperation with the Public Health department to design an electrostatic trap for particles from auto emissio

ns. In order to verify the correct operation of the trap the design engineers must be able to monitor the speed of the particles before they are trapped. If the particles are moving too fast then they cannot be effectively trapped. The particular detector the engineers want to use is only sensitive to particles moving less than 1000 m/s.The following design parameters are given.
The average emission particle that enters the device is ionized by exposure to ultraviolet radiation resulting in the removal of electrons so that it has a charge of +3.0 x 10-8 C.
The trapping element is a single large square plate negatively charged with a charge density of -8.0 x 10-6 C/m2.
The average particle in the emission stream is moving 900 m/s when it is 15 cm from the plate.
The detector for the particles is located 7.0 cm from the plate.
An average emission particle has a mass of 6.0 x 10-9 kg.

Does this electrostatic trap meets the design parameters?

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that:

Charge (q) on the particle = 3 × 10⁻⁸ C

mass (m) of the particle = 6 × 10⁻⁹ kg

at a distance x = 15 cm , the velocity in the plate = 900 m/s²

For the square plate, the surface charged density σ = -8 × 10⁻⁶ C/m²

To start with calculating the electric field as a result of the square plate; we use the formula;

E = \dfrac{\sigma }{2 \varepsilon_o}

E = \dfrac{8 \times 10^{-6} }{2 \times  8.85 \times 10^{-12}}

E = 4.51977 \times 10^5 \ V/m

On the square plate; The electric force F = Eq

F = (4.51977 \times 10^5 \ V/m )(3\times 10^{-8} \ C)

F = 1.3559 \times 10^{-2} \ N

The acceleration a =\dfrac{ F}{m}{

a = \dfrac{1.3559\times 10^{-2} \ N}{6 \times 10^{-9} \ Kg}

a = 2.25988 \times 10^6 \ m/s^2

For the particle, the velocity at distance x = 7 m can be calculated by using the formula:

(\dfrac{1}{2}) mv^2 = \Delta Vq

v^2 = \dfrac{2 Eq}{dm}

v^2 = \dfrac{2 * 4.51977 \times 10^5 \times 3 \times 10^{-8} }{0.07 \times 6\times 10^{-9} }

v^2 = 64568142.86  \ m/s

v =\sqrt{ 64568142.86  \ m/s}

\mathbf{v = 8.035 \times 10^3 \ m/s}

From the calculation, we realize that the charge acting between the particle and the plate is said to be "opposite".

Hence, the force is an attractive force.

Similarly, there is a gradual increase exhibited by the velocity of the particle.

Therefore, the particles get to the detector, but the detector failed to get detect due to the velocity which is greater than 1000 m/s.

Find acceleration given the following:
Lorico [155]

Answer:

Explanation:df=378

Di=0

Vi=0

T=6s

Formula

Df=Di+Vit+1/2(at)2

378=0+0+6+1/2×a×t2

378=6+1/2×a×36

378=6+18a

18a=378+6=384

a=385/18=21.33(cm/s)/s

A truck of mass 1800kg is moving with a speed 54km/h. When brakes are applied, it
EleoNora [17]

Force = 3200 N

Work done = 640, 000 Nm

Explanation:

We begin by calculating the deceleration of the truck, using the velocity and distance;

a = (v² – u²)/2s

whereby;

a = acceleration

v = initial velocity

u = initial velocity

s = distance

We begin by changing the speed from km/h into m/s;

54km/hr = 15m/s

Then acceleration;

a = (0² – 15²) / 2 * 200

a = -225 / 400

a = - 0.5625 m/ s²

To calculate force;

F = ma

Whereby;

F = force

M = mass (in kgs)

a = acceleration

F = 1800 / 0.5625

F = 3200 N

Work done = Force * displacement

Work done = 3200 * 200

= 640, 000 Nm

katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

2.1x10^6m/s

Explanation:

One electron has a charge of –1.602e-19 C

mass of electron is 9.1e-31 kg

mass of proton is 1.6726e−27 kg

mass ratio is 1.6726e−27 / 9.1e-31 = 1838

The force is constant, F

distance is constant, d

a = F/m

a increases by a factor 1838, as m decreases by that factor

a = a₀1838

v₀² = 2a₀d

v² = 2a₀d1838

v²/v₀² = 2a₀d1838 / 2a₀d = 1838

v² = 1838v₀² = 1838(45000)²

v = 45000√1838 = 2.1e6 m/s
