Answer:

a) The proton's speed is 5.75x10⁵ m/s.

b) The kinetic energy of the proton is 1723 eV.  

Explanation:

a) The proton's speed can be calculated with the Lorentz force equation:

F = qv \times B = qvBsin(\theta)     (1)          

Where:

F: is the force = 9.14x10⁻¹⁷ N

q: is the charge of the particle (proton) = 1.602x10⁻¹⁹ C

v: is the proton's speed =?

B: is the magnetic field = 3.28 mT

θ: is the angle between the proton's speed and the magnetic field = 17.6°

By solving equation (1) for v we have:

v = \frac{F}{qBsin(\theta)} = \frac{9.14 \cdot 10^{-17} N}{1.602\cdot 10^{-19} C*3.28 \cdot 10^{-3} T*sin(17.6)} = 5.75 \cdot 10^{5} m/s

Hence, the proton's speed is 5.75x10⁵ m/s.

b) Its kinetic energy (K) is given by:

K = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2}

Where:

m: is the mass of the proton = 1.67x10⁻²⁷ kg

K = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2} = \frac{1}{2}1.67 \cdot 10^{-27} kg*(5.75 \cdot 10^{5} m/s)^{2} = 2.76 \cdot 10^{-16} J*\frac{1 eV}{1.602 \cdot 10^{-19} J} = 1723 eV  

Therefore, the kinetic energy of the proton is 1723 eV.

I hope it helps you!

A 8.8 cm diameter circular loop of wire is in a 1.04 T magnetic field. The loop is removed from the field in 0.30 s . Assume tha
denis23 [38]

Answer:

0.021 V

Explanation:

The average induced emf (E) can be calculated usgin the Faraday's Law:

E = - \frac{N*\Delta \phi}{\Delta t}  

<u>Where:</u>

<em>N = is the number of turns = 1   </em>

<em>ΔΦ = ΔB*A                                            </em>

<em>Δt = is the time = 0.3 s   </em>

<em>A = is the loop of wire area = πr² = πd²/4 </em>

<em>ΔB: is the magnetic field = (0 - 1.04) T                     </em>

Hence the average induced emf is:

E = - \frac{\Delta B*A}{\Delta t} = - \frac{(0- 1.04 T) \pi (0.088 m)^{2}}{4*0.3 s} = 0.021 V                      

Therefore, the average induced emf is 0.021 V.

I hope it helps you!

Astar begins as a blank a large cloud of gas and dust
crimeas [40]
This is a statement but yes a star forms inside nebulae which are gigantic clouds of gas. stars form inside as the gases own gravity pulls it together after which it becomes large enough to perform fusion and become a star.
