Answer:

Explanation:

During nuclear fusion, the high pressure and temperature in the sun's core cause nuclei to separate from their electrons. Hydrogen nuclei fuse to form one helium atom.

You are working in cooperation with the Public Health department to design an electrostatic trap for particles from auto emissio

Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that:

Charge (q) on the particle = 3 × 10⁻⁸ C

mass (m) of the particle = 6 × 10⁻⁹ kg

at a distance x = 15 cm , the velocity in the plate = 900 m/s²

For the square plate, the surface charged density σ = -8 × 10⁻⁶ C/m²

To start with calculating the electric field as a result of the square plate; we use the formula;

$E = \dfrac{\sigma }{2 \varepsilon_o}$

$E = \dfrac{8 \times 10^{-6} }{2 \times 8.85 \times 10^{-12}}$

$E = 4.51977 \times 10^5 \ V/m$

On the square plate; The electric force F = Eq

$F = (4.51977 \times 10^5 \ V/m )(3\times 10^{-8} \ C)$

$F = 1.3559 \times 10^{-2} \ N$

The acceleration $a =\dfrac{ F}{m}{$

$a = \dfrac{1.3559\times 10^{-2} \ N}{6 \times 10^{-9} \ Kg}$

$a = 2.25988 \times 10^6 \ m/s^2$

For the particle, the velocity at distance x = 7 m can be calculated by using the formula:

$(\dfrac{1}{2}) mv^2 = \Delta Vq$

$v^2 = \dfrac{2 Eq}{dm}$

$v^2 = \dfrac{2 * 4.51977 \times 10^5 \times 3 \times 10^{-8} }{0.07 \times 6\times 10^{-9} }$

$v^2 = 64568142.86 \ m/s$

$v =\sqrt{ 64568142.86 \ m/s}$

$\mathbf{v = 8.035 \times 10^3 \ m/s}$

From the calculation, we realize that the charge acting between the particle and the plate is said to be "opposite".

Hence, the force is an attractive force.

Similarly, there is a gradual increase exhibited by the velocity of the particle.

Therefore, the particles get to the detector, but the detector failed to get detect due to the velocity which is greater than 1000 m/s.

A student team is to design a human powered submarine for a design competition. The overall length of the prototype submarine is

Allushta [10]

Answer:

a) The speed is 61.42 m/s

b) The drag force is 10.32 N

Explanation:

a) The Reynold´s number for the model and prototype is:

$Re_{m} =\frac{p_{m}V_{m}L_{m} }{u_{m} }$

$Re_{p} =\frac{p_{p}V_{p}L_{p} }{u_{p} }$

Equaling both Reynold's number:

$\frac{p_{p}V_{p}L_{p} }{u_{p} }=\frac{p_{m}V_{m}L_{m} }{u_{m} }$

Clearing Vm:

$V_{m} =\frac{p_{p}V_{p}L_{p} u_{m} }{u_{p} p_{m} L_{m} }=\frac{999.1*0.56*8*1.849x10^{-5} }{1.138x10^{-3}*1.184*1 } =61.42m/s$

b) The drag force is:

$\frac{F_{Dm} }{p_{m}V_{m}^{2}L_{m}^{2} } =\frac{F_{Dp} }{p_{p}V_{p}^{2}L_{p}^{2} } \\F_{Dp} =\frac{F_{Dp}p_{p}V_{p}^{2}L_{p}^{2} }{p_{m}V_{m}^{2}L_{m}^{2} } \\F_{Dp}=\frac{2.3*999.1*0.56^{2} *8^{2} }{1.184*61.42^{2}*1^{2} } =10.32N$
