The gravitational force between the charged constituents of the atom is negligible compared with the electric force between them

katrin2010 [14]

Answer: The initial force is reduced a factor 1/4 when the separation between charge is doubled

Explanation: As it well known the electric force between two charges is given by:

Finitial=k*q1*q2/d^2 where d is the distance between charges and k is a constant

if the distance is doubled this means 2*dinitial thus the new force is equal to F initial* 1/4

The aurora is caused when electrons and protons, moving in the earth’s magnetic field of ≈5.0×10−5T, collide with molecules of t

ollegr [7]

Answer:

8.79*10^6 rad/s

Explanation:

To find the frequency of the circular orbit for an electron you use the following expression, for the radius of the trajectory of an electron, that travels trough a constant magnetic field:

$r=\frac{mv}{qB}$ (1)

r: radius of the trajectory

m: mass of the electron = 9.1*10^-31 kg

v: speed of the electron = 1.0*10^6 m/s

q: charge of the electron = 1.6*10^-19 C

B: magnitude of the magnetic field = 5.0*10^-5 T

You use the fact that the angular frequency in a circular motion is given by:

$\omega=\frac{v}{r}$

Then, you solve the equation (1) in order to obtain v/r:

$\frac{v}{r}=\omega=\frac{qB}{m}$

Finally, you replace the values of the parameters:

$\omega=\frac{(1.6*10^{-19}C)(5.0*10^{-5}T)}{9.1*10^{-31}kg}\\\\\omega=8.79*10^6\frac{rad}{s}$

hence, the angular frequency is 8.79*10^6 rad/s

The frequency is:

$f=2\pi \omega=5.5*10^7Hz$

which fire extinguisher is most appropriate to put out a fire that involves a stack of burning newspapers

evablogger [386]

Monoammonium phosphate effectively smothers the fire, while sodium bicarbonate induces a chemical reaction which extinguishes the fire. Fire extinguishers with a Class C rating are suitable for fires in “live” electrical equipment.
