The smallest unit of charge is − 1.6 × 10 − 19 C, which is the charge in coulombs of a single electron. Robert Millikan was able

Answer:

$-8.0 \times 10 ^{-19 }\ C,\ -3.2 \times 10 ^{-19 }\ C, -4.8 \times 10 ^{-19 }\ C$

Explanation:

<u>Charge of an Electron</u>

Since Robert Millikan determined the charge of a single electron is

$q_e=-1.6\cdot 10^{-19}\ C$

Every possible charged particle must have a charge that is an exact multiple of that elemental charge. For example, if a particle has 5 electrons in excess, thus its charge is $5\times -1.6\cdot 10^{-19}\ C=-8 \cdot 10^{-19}\ C$

Let's test the possible charges listed in the question:

$-8.0 \times 10 ^{-19 }$ . We have just found it's a possible charge of a particle

$-3.2 \times 10 ^{-19 }$ . Since 3.2 is an exact multiple of 1.6, this is also a possible charge of the oil droplets

$-1.2 \times 10 ^{-19 }$ this is not a possible charge for an oil droplet since it's smaller than the charge of the electron, the smallest unit of charge

$-5.6 \times 10 ^{-19 },\ -9.4 \times 10 ^{-19 }$ cannot be a possible charge for an oil droplet because they are not exact multiples of 1.6

Finally, the charge $-4.8 \times 10 ^{-19 }\ C$ is four times the charge of the electron, so it is a possible value for the charge of an oil droplet

Summarizing, the following are the possible values for the charge of an oil droplet:

$-8.0 \times 10 ^{-19 }\ C,\ -3.2 \times 10 ^{-19 }\ C, -4.8 \times 10 ^{-19 }\ C$

39. Draw a complete free body diagram of a 40 kg plastic crate at rest on a wooden table (us=0.7). The applied force to the righ

Leya [2.2K]

In order to draw the free body diagram, first let's calculate the friction force acting on the crate:

$\begin{gathered} F_f=N\cdot\mu \\ F_f=40\cdot9.8\cdot0.7 \\ F_f=274.4\text{ N} \end{gathered}$

Since the friction force is greater than the force applied, the crate will not move, and the friction force will be equal to the force applied.

The weight force is equal to 40 * 9.8 = 392 N.

So, drawing the diagram, we have:

Explain how the pressure at the bottom of a container depends on the container shape and the fluid height

3241004551 [841]

The pressure at the bottom of a column of fluid in a container
depends only on the depth of the fluid, not on the shape of the
container. The pressure is simply the result of the weight of the
fluid resting on the bottom.

What is the mass of an object if a net force of 18 N causes it to accelerate at 15 m/s^2?

trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

1.2 kg

Explanation:

F = 18N

a = 15 m/s^2

F = ma

18 = 15m

m = 1.2 kg
