Answer:

negative ion

Explanation:

An atom that has fewer neutrons than protons and more electrons than protons is a negative ion.

The positively charged particles in an atom are the protons

The negatively charged particles in an atom are the electrons.

The charge an atom carries depends on the balance between the number of protons and electrons in an atom.

When the number of protons is more than the number of electrons, the atom is positively charged.
When the number of electrons is more than the number of protons, the atom is negatively charged.

A transverse wave on a rope is given by y(x,t)= (0.750cm)cos(π[(0.400cm−1)x+(250s−1)t]). part a part complete find the amplitude

Pani-rosa [81]

The amplitude of a wave corresponds to its maximum oscillation of the wave itself.
In our problem, the equation of the wave is
$y(x,t)= (0.750cm)cos(\pi [(0.400cm-1)x+(250s-1)t])$
We can see that the maximum value of y(x,t) is reached when the cosine is equal to 1. When this condition occurs,
$y(x,t)=0.750 cm$
and therefore this value corresponds to the amplitude of the wave.

How much work is done against gravity when lowering a 16 kg box 0.50 m? (g = 9.8 m/s2)

leonid [27]

Answer:

The work done against gravity is 78.4 J

Explanation:

The work is calculated by multiplying the force by the distance that the

object moves

W = F × d, where W is the work , F is the force and d is the distance

The SI unit of work is the joule (J)

We need to find the work done against gravity when lowering a

16 kg box 0.50 m

→ F = mg

→ m = 16 kg, and g = 9.8 m/s²

Substitute these value in the rule

→ F = 16 × 9.8 = 156.8 N

→ W = F × d

→ F = 156.8 N and d = 0.50

Substitute these values in the rule

→ W = 78.4 J

<em>The work done against gravity is 78.4 J</em>

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.

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.

$\boxed{B = 0 T}$
