An electron emitted from a filament is travelling at 1.5 x 105 m/s when it enters an acceleration of an electron gun in a televi

sion tube. It is constantly accelerated while travelling 0.01 m, and leaves the gun at 5.4 x 106 m/s. What was the acceleration of the electron

Answer:

The acceleration of the electron is 1.457 x 10¹⁵ m/s².

Explanation:

Given;

initial velocity of the emitted electron, u = 1.5 x 10⁵ m/s

distance traveled by the electron, d = 0.01 m

final velocity of the electron, v = 5.4 x 10⁶ m/s

The acceleration of the electron is calculated as;

v² = u² + 2ad

(5.4 x 10⁶)² = (1.5 x 10⁵)² + (2 x 0.01)a

(2 x 0.01)a = (5.4 x 10⁶)² - (1.5 x 10⁵)²

(2 x 0.01)a = 2.91375 x 10¹³

$a = \frac{2.91375 \ \times \ 10^{13}}{2 \ \times \ 0.01} \\\\a = 1.457 \ \times \ 10^{15} \ m/s^2$

Therefore, the acceleration of the electron is 1.457 x 10¹⁵ m/s².

What's the formula for efficiency?

Neko [114]

Answer:

r=P/C, where P is the amount of useful output ("product") produced per the amount C ("cost") of resources consumed.

Explanation:

Efficiency is often measured as the ratio of useful output to total input, which can be expressed with the mathematical formula r=P/C, where P is the amount of useful output ("product") produced per the amount C ("cost") of resources consumed.

A 600 kg car is at test and then accelerated to 5m/s , what is its original kinetic energy

ycow [4]

Answer:

0 J

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is defined as:

KE = 1/2 m v²

where m is mass and v is velocity.

The car starts at rest, so it has zero velocity. Therefore, its initial kinetic energy is 0 J.

Vector A has a magnitude of 50 units and points in the positive x direction. A second vector, B , has a magnitude of 120 units a

Alex Ar [27]

A) Vector A

The x-component of a vector can be found by using the formula

$v_x = v cos \theta$

where

v is the magnitude of the vector

$\theta$ is the angle between the x-axis and the direction of the vector

- Vector A has a magnitude of 50 units along the positive x-direction, so $\theta_A = 0^{\circ}$ . So its x-component is

$A_x = A cos \theta_A = (50) cos 0^{\circ}=50$

- Vector B has a magnitude of 120 units and the direction is $\theta_B = -70^{\circ}$ (negative since it is below the x-axis), so the x-component is

$B_x = B cos \theta_B = (120) cos (-70^{\circ})=41$

So, vector A has the greater x component.

B) Vector B

Instead, the y-component of a vector can be found by using the formula

$v_y = v sin \theta$

Here we have

- Vector B has a magnitude of 50 units along the positive x-direction, so $\theta_A = 0^{\circ}$ . So its y-component is

$A_y = A sin \theta_A = (50) sin 0^{\circ}=0$

- Vector B has a magnitude of 120 units and the direction is $\theta_B = -70^{\circ}$ , so the y-component is

$B_y = B sin \theta_B = (120) sin (-70^{\circ})=-112.7$

where the negative sign means the direction is along negative y:

So, vector B has the greater y component.

A-10A twin-jet close-support airplane is approximately rectangular with a wingspan (the length perpendicular to the flow directi

Sidana [21]

Solution :

Given :

Rectangular wingspan

Length,L = 17.5 m

Chord, c = 3 m

Free stream velocity of flow, $V_{\infty}$ = 200 m/s

Given that the flow is laminar.

$Re_L=\frac{\rho V L}{\mu _{\infty}}$

$=\frac{1.225 \times 200 \times 3}{1.789 \times 10^{-5}}$

$= 4.10 \times 10^7$

So boundary layer thickness,

$\delta_{L} = \frac{5.2 L}{\sqrt{Re_L}}$

$\delta_{L} = \frac{5.2 \times 3}{\sqrt{4.1 \times 10^7}}$

= 0.0024 m

The dynamic pressure, $q_{\infty} =\frac{1}{2} \rho V^2_{\infty}$

$=\frac{1}{2} \times 1.225 \times 200^2$

$=2.45 \times 10^4 \ N/m^2$

The skin friction drag co-efficient is given by

$C_f = \frac{1.328}{\sqrt{Re_L}}$

$=\frac{1.328}{\sqrt{4.1 \times 10^7}}$

= 0.00021

$D_{skinfriction} = \frac{1}{2} \rho V^2_{\infty}S C_f$

$=\frac{1}{2} \times 1.225 \times 200^2 \times 17.5 \times 3 \times 0.00021$

= 270 N

Therefore the net drag = 270 x 2

= 540 N
