Answer:

Magnitude and direction.

Explanation:

Velocity can be defined as the rate of change in displacement (distance) with time. Velocity is a vector quantity and as such it has both magnitude and direction.

Mathematically, velocity is given by the equation;

$Velocity = \frac{distance}{time}$

Gravity is considered to be a universal force of attraction which acts between all objects that has both mass, energy and occupy space. Therefore, it acts in such a way as to bring objects together.

Additionally, the gravity of earth makes it possible for all physical objects to possess weight.

Hence, in free fall, the magnitude and direction of velocity of the object changes.

The law of reflection establishes a definite relationship between the angle of incidence of a light ray striking the boundary be

sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

The law of reflection states that the angle of incidence = the angle of reflection.

Explanation:

Reflection is the phenomenon that occurs when a ray of light hits the boundary between two media and it is reflected back into the first medium.

In such a situation, we call:

- angle of incidence: it is the angle between the direction of the incident ray and the normal to the surface

- angle of reflection: it is the angle between the direction of the reflected ray and the normal to the surface

There is a precise relationship between the angle of incidence and the angle of reflection. In fact, the Law of Reflection states that:

- The incident ray, the reflected ray and the normal to the surface all lie within the same plane

- The angle of reflection is equal to the angle of incidence

An electron initially has a speed 16 km/s along the x-direction and enters an electric field of strength 27 mV/m that points in

weqwewe [10]

Answer:

a) $t=1.4\times 10^{-5}\ s$

b)S= 46.4 cm

Explanation:

Given that

Velocity = 16 Km/s

V= 16,000 m/s

E= 27 mV/m

E=0.027 V/m

d= 22.5 cm

d= 0.225 m

lets time taken by electron is t

d = V x t

0.225 = 16,000 t

$t=1.4\times 10^{-5}\ s$

We know that

F = m a = E q ------------1

Mass of electron ,m

$m=9.1\times 10^{-31}\ kg$

Charge on electron

$q=1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C$

So now by putting the values in equation 1

$a=\dfrac{E q}{m}$

$a=\dfrac{1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 0.027}{9.1\times 10^{-31}}\ m/s^2$

$a=4.74\times 10^{9}\ m/s^2$

$S= ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2$

Here initial velocity u= 0 m/s

$S= \dfrac{1}{2}\times 4.74\times 10^{9}\times (1.4\times 10^{-5})^2\ m$

S=0.464 m

S= 46.4 cm

S is the deflection of electron.
