A proton moves with a speed of 1.00 x 106 m/s perpendicular to a magnetic field, B. As a result, the proton moves in circle of r

adius 20.0 m. If an electron were moving at the same speed perpendicular to the same magnetic field, what would be the radius of the circle the electron would move in

Answer:

0.0109 m ≈ 10.9 mm

Explanation:

proton speed = 1 * 10^6 m/s

radius in which the proton moves = 20 m

<u>determine the radius of the circle in which an electron would move </u>

we will apply the formula for calculating the centripetal force for both proton and electron ( Lorentz force formula)

For proton :

Mp*V^2 / rp  = qp *VB   ∴  rp = Mp*V / qP*B    ---------- ( 1 )

For electron:

re = Me*V/ qE * B -------- ( 2 )

Next: take the ratio of equations 1 and 2

re / rp = Me / Mp                                 ( note: qE = qP = 1.6 * 10^-19 C )

∴ re ( radius of the electron orbit )

= ( Me / Mp ) rp

= ( 9.1 * 10^-31 / 1.67 * 10^-27 ) 20

= ( 5.45 * 10^-4 ) * 20

= 0.0109 m ≈ 10.9 mm

un movil que parte del reposo alcanza una velocidad de 75 m/s en 13 segundos ¿cual su aceleracion y el espacio que recorrio en l
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

Acceleration = 5.77 m/s²

Distance cover in 13 seconds = 487.56 meter

Explanation:

Given:

Final velocity of mobile device = 75 m/s

initial velocity of mobile device = 0 m/s

Time taken = 13 seconds

Find:

Acceleration

Distance cover in 13 seconds

Computation:

v = u + at

75 = 0 + (a)(13)

13a = 75

a = 5.77

Acceleration = 5.77 m/s²

s = ut + (1/2)(a)(t²)

s = (0)(t) + (1/2)(5.77)(13²)

Distance cover in 13 seconds = 487.56 meter

Steel is made of atoms of iron and carbon. Would iron and carbon form metallic bonds? Explain your answer choice.
Hatshy [7]

Sample Response: "No, steel and carbon would not form metallic bonds because metallic bonds only form between metals. Iron is a metal, but carbon is not."
