Answer:

ΔU  = e(V₂ - V₁) and its value ΔU = -2.275 × 10⁻²¹ J

Explanation:

Since the electric potential at point 1 is V₁ = 33 V and the electric potential at point 2 is V₂ = 175 V, when the electron is accelerated from point 1 to point 2, there is a change in electric potential ΔV which is given by ΔV = V₂ - V₁.

Substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

ΔV = V₂ - V₁.

ΔV = 175 V - 33 V.

ΔV = 142 V

The change in electric potential energy ΔU = eΔV = e(V₂ - V₁) where e = electron charge = -1.602 × 10⁻¹⁹ C and ΔV = electric potential change from point 1 to point 2 = 142 V.

So, substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

ΔU = eΔV

ΔU = eΔV

ΔU = -1.602 × 10⁻¹⁹ C × 142 V

ΔU = -227.484 × 10⁻¹⁹ J

ΔU = -2.27484 × 10⁻²¹ J

ΔU ≅ -2.275 × 10⁻²¹ J

So, the required equation for the electric potential energy change is

ΔU  = e(V₂ - V₁) and its value ΔU = -2.275 × 10⁻²¹ J

Liula [17]

Answer:

Magnetic field experienced = 4.5 × 10⁻⁴ T

Explanation:

The magnetic field around an infinite straight current-carrying wire at a distance r from the wire is given by

B = (μ₀I)/(2πr)

B = ?

I = 20 KA = 20000 A

r = 8.9 m

μ₀ = magnetic permeability = 1.257 × 10⁻⁶ T.m/A

B = (1.257 × 10⁻⁶ × 20000)/(2π×8.9) = 4.5 × 10⁻⁴ T
