Answer:

K_{e} = 2.0 J

Explanation:

In this exercise you are asked to calculate the elastic potential energy of a spring

          K_{e} = ½ k x²

where k is the spring constant and x is the displacement from equilibrium position

In this exercise, indicate that the spring constant is k = 100 N/m, the length at rest is  x₀ = 20 cm = 0.20 m, up to the position x₁ = 40 cm = 0.40 m, therefore the elongation

           Δx = x₁ - x₀

           Δx = 0.40 - 0.20

           Δx = 0.20 m

let's calculate the elastic potential energy

           K_{e} = ½ 100 0.20²

           K_{e} = 2.0 J

An electron moves at 0.130 c as shown in the figure (Figure 1). There are points: A, B, C, and D 2.10 μm from the electron.
Olegator [25]

Hi there!

We can use Biot-Savart's Law for a moving particle:
B= \frac{\mu_0 }{4\pi}\frac{q\vec{v}\times \vec{r}}{r^2 }

B = Magnetic field strength (T)
v = velocity of electron (0.130c = 3.9 × 10⁷ m/s)

q = charge of particle (1.6 × 10⁻¹⁹ C)

μ₀ = Permeability of free space (4π × 10⁻⁷ Tm/A)

r = distance from particle (2.10 μm)

There is a cross product between the velocity vector and the radius vector (not a quantity, but specifies a direction). We can write this as:

B= \frac{\mu_0 }{4\pi}\frac{q\vec{v} \vec{r}sin\theta}{r^2 }

Where 'θ' is the angle between the velocity and radius vectors.

a)
To find the angle between the velocity and radius vector, we find the complementary angle:

θ = 90° - 60° = 30°

Plugging 'θ' into the equation along with our other values:

B= \frac{\mu_0 }{4\pi}\frac{q\vec{v} \vec{r}sin\theta}{r^2 }\\\\B= \frac{(4\pi *10^{-7})}{4\pi}\frac{(1.6*10^{-19})(3.9*10^{7}) \vec{r}sin(30)}{(2.1*10^{-5})^2 }

B = \boxed{7.07 *10^{-10} T}

b)
Repeat the same process. The angle between the velocity and radius vector is 150°, and its sine value is the same as that of sin(30°). So, the particle's produced field will be the same as that of part A.

c)

In this instance, the radius vector and the velocity vector are perpendicular so

'θ' = 90°.

B= \frac{(4\pi *10^{-7})}{4\pi}\frac{(1.6*10^{-19})(3.9*10^{7}) \vec{r}sin(90)}{(2.1*10^{-5})^2 } = \boxed{1.415 * 10^{-9}T}

d)
This point is ALONG the velocity vector, so there is no magnetic field produced at this point.

Aka, the radius and velocity vectors are parallel, and since sin(0) = 0, there is no magnetic field at this point.

\boxed{B = 0 T}

A capacitor C is fully charged by connecting it to battery of V Volt. Then it is disconnected from battery. If the separation be
vodomira [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

i )

When it is disconnected with the battery , the charge stored in it becomes fixed . When the plate distance becomes half , its capacitance becomes twice from C to 2C . Let charge stored in it at the time of disconnection from battery be Q . Let plate separation reduces from d to d / 2

So charged stored in it will remain unchanged .

ii )

Potential difference = charge / capacitance

in the first case potential difference = Q / C

in the second case potential difference = Q / 2C

So potential difference becomes half .

iii ) electric field = potential diff / plate separation

in the first case electric field = Q / (d x C )

in the second case electric field = 2 Q / (d x 2C)

= Q / (d  x C )

So electric field remains unchanged .

iv)

energy stored in first case = Q² / 2C

In the second case energy stored = Q² / 2x2C

so energy stored becomes half .
