Answer:

B = 6.18 10⁻⁶ T  

the magnetic field is in the negative direction of the y axis

Explanation:

The magnetic force is given by

         F = q v x B

as in the exercise indicate that the velocities perpendicular to the magnetic field,

         F = q v B

Newton's second law is

         F = m a

let's substitute

         q v B = m a

         B = m a / q v

let's calculate

         B = 9.1 10⁻³¹ 2.50 10¹³ / (1.6 10⁻¹⁹ 2.30 10⁷)

         B = 6.18 10⁻⁶ T

The direction of the field can be obtained with the right hand rule, where the thumb points in the direction of the velocity, the fingers extended in the direction of the magnetic field and the palm in the direction of the force for a positive charge.

In the exercise indicate that the velocity is the z axis

the acceleration and therefore the force in the x axis

therefore the magnetic field is in the negative direction of the y axis

a. How many excess electrons must be distributed uniformly within the volume of an isolated plastic sphere 25.0 cm in diameter t
Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

Explanation:

The electric field outside the sphere is given as,

E = k Q /r²

here Q = n x 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C

where n is the number of electons

if the dimeter of sphere d= 25 cm= 0.25 m

then the radius r = 0.125 m

we get

n= E r²/ k x 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C

n = 1350N/C x (0.125m)² / (8.99 x 10⁹ N m²/C² x 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C)

n = 14664731646

(a) a light-rail commuter train accelerates at a rate of 1.15 m/s2. how long does it take it to reach its top speed of 80.0 km/h
snow_lady [41]
A = 1.15m/s2, Vf = 80.0km/h --> we need it in m/s, so:
Vf = 80km/h × 1000m/1km × 1h/3600s
= 22.22m/s
Top speed = Vf, initial speed = Vi
time (t) = V(Vf-Vi) ÷ a
t = (22.22-0)m/s ÷ 1.15m/s2
t = 22.22m/s × s2/1.15m
= 19.32 seconds

Capacitor C1 is initially charged to V1 and capacitor C2 is initially charged to V2. The capacitors are then connected to each o
o-na [289]

Answer:

<em>20.08 Volts</em>

Explanation:

<u>Parallel Connection of Capacitors</u>

The voltage across any two elements connected in parallel is the same. If the elements are capacitors, then each voltage is

\displaystyle V_1=\frac{Q_1}{C_1}

\displaystyle V_2=\frac{Q_2}{C_2}

They are both the same after connecting them, thus

\displaystyle \frac{Q_2}{C_2}=\frac{Q_1}{C_1}

Or, equivalently

\displaystyle Q_2=\frac{C_2Q_1}{C_1}

The total charge of both capacitors is

\displaystyle Q_t=Q_1\left(1+\frac{C_2}{C_1}\right)

We can compute the total charge by using the initial conditions where both capacitors were disconnected:

Q_t=V_{10}C_1+V_{20}C_2=25\cdot 24+13\cdot 11=743\ \mu C

Now we compute Q1 from the equation above

\displaystyle Q_1=\frac{Q_t}{\left(1+\frac{C_2}{C_1}\right)}=\frac{743}{\left(1+\frac{13}{24}\right)}=481.95\ \mu C

The final voltage of any of the capacitors is

\displaystyle V_1=V_2=\frac{481.95}{24}=20.08\ V
