I'll denote vectors in boldface. So the given vector field is

B = x² x - y² y + 3z z

Compute the divergence:

∇ • B = (∂/∂x x + ∂/∂y y + ∂/∂z z) • (x² x - y² y + 3z z)

∇ • B = ∂/∂x [x²] + ∂/∂y [-y²] + ∂/∂z [3z]

∇ • B = 2x - 2y + 3

Compute the curl:

∇ × B = (∂/∂x x + ∂/∂y y + ∂/∂z z) × (x² x - y² y + 3z z)

∇ × B = ∂/∂x [x²] (x × x) + ∂/∂x [-y²] (x × y) + ∂/∂x [3z] (x × z)

… … … + ∂/∂y [x²] (y × x) + ∂/∂y [-y²] (y × y) + ∂/∂y [3z] (y × z)

… … … + ∂/∂z [x²] (z × x) + ∂/∂z [-y²] (z × y) + ∂/∂z [3z] (z × z)

∇ × B = 0

(since each partial derivative not along the main diagonal vanishes, and for any vector a we have a × a = 0)

If a proton and an electron are released when they are 2.50×10^-10m apart (typical atomic distances), find the initial accelerat

katrin [286]

To solve this exercise, we will first proceed to calculate the electric force given by the charge between the proton and the electron (it). From the Force we will use Newton's second law that will allow us to find the acceleration of objects. The Coulomb force between two charges is given as

$F = k \frac{q_1q_2}{r^2}$

Here,

k = Coulomb's constant

q = Charge of proton and electron

r = Distance

Replacing we have that,

$F = (9*10^9)(\frac{(1.602*10^{-19})^2}{2.5*10^{-10}})$

$F = 3.6956*10^{-9}N$

The force between the electron and proton is calculated. From Newton's third law the force exerted by the electron on proton is same as the force exerted by the proton on electron.

The acceleration of the electron is given as

$a_e = \frac{F}{m_e}$

$a_e = \frac{3.6956*10^{-9}}{9.11*10^{-31}}$

$a_e = 4.0566*10^{21}m/s^2$

The acceleration of the proton is given as,

$a_p = \frac{F}{m_p}$

$a_p = \frac{3.6956*10^{-9}}{1.672*10^{-27}}$

$a_p = 2.21*10^{18}m/s^2$

A student wants to determine the impulse delivered to the lab cart when it runs into the wall. The student measures the mass of

forsale [732]

Impulse = Force * times and also Impulse = change in momentum.

Given that the mass does not change, change if momentum = mass * (final velocity - initial velocity)

Given that you know mass and initial velocity (which is the velicity before the cart hits the wall) you need the final velocity (which is the velocity after the cart hits the wall).

Answer: the velocity of the cart after it hits the wall.

mylen [45]

Answer:

Impulse = change in momentum w bounce

There are 2 impulses acting. Recoil of the fan going the negative direction and the impulse of the air bouncing off the sail. The greater impulse will bounce so the direction will be to the right moving the craft.
