Answer:
The beam used is a negatively charged electron beam with a velocity of
v = E / B
Explanation:
After reading this long statement we can extract the data to work on the problem.
* They indicate that when the beam passes through the plates it deviates towards the positive plate, so the beam must be negative electrons.
* Now indicates that the electric field and the magnetic field are contracted and that the beam passes without deviating, so the electric and magnetic forces must be balanced
q E = qv B
v = E / B
this configuration is called speed selector
They ask us what type of beam was used.
The beam used is a negatively charged electron beam with a velocity of v = E / B
v = v₀ + at
v = final speed, v₀ = initial speed, a = acceleration, t = elapsed time
Given values:
v₀ = 0m/s (starts from rest), a = 9.81m/s², t = 3s
Plug in and solve for v:
v = 0 + 9.81(3)
v = 29.4m/s
Well first of all, the Space Shuttle program ended a few years ago, and none have been launched since then.
The Shuttle never went to places that were properly referred to as "outer space". When they flew, the Space Shuttles went to low Earth orbit, where the acceleration of gravity is roughly 85% of its value on the Earth's surface.
So a Shuttle that weighed 20 million Newtons on the launch pad weighed roughly 17 million Newtons while in orbit.
