Answer:

It is dangerous when there are flammable gases or a high concentration of oxygen. A spark could ignite the gases and cause an explosion. It is dangerous when you touch something with a large electric charge on it. The charge will flow through your body causing an electric shock.

An electron follows a helical path in a uniform magnetic field of magnitude 0.340 T. The pitch of the path is 6.00 µm, and the m

dedylja [7]

Answer:

The electron's speed is 34007.35 m/s

Explanation:

It is given that,

Magnetic field, B = 0.34 T

Magnetic force on the electron, $F=1.85\times 10^{-15}\ N$

The electron follows a helical path. We have to find the speed of an electron. The formula for magnetic force is given by :

$F=B\times q\times v$

q = charge on an electron, $q=1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C$

v = velocity of an electron

$v=\dfrac{F}{Bq}$

$v=\dfrac{1.85\times 10^{-15}\ N}{0.34\ T\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C}$

v = 34007.35 m/s

Hence, this is the required solution.

A gun shoots a bullet with a velocity of 500 m/s. The gun is aimed horizontally and fired from a height of 1.5 m. How far does t

MrMuchimi

The bullet travels a horizontal distance of 276.5 m

The bullet is shot forward with a horizontal velocity $u_x$ . It takes a time t to fall a vertical distance y and at the same time travels a horizontal distance x.

The bullet's horizontal velocity remains constant since no force acts on the bullet in the horizontal direction.

The initial velocity of the bullet has no component in the vertical direction. As it falls through the vertical distance, it is accelerated due to the force of gravity.

Calculate the time taken for the bullet to fall through a vertical distance y using the equation,

$y=u_yt+\frac{1}{2} gt^2$
