Answer:

The electric field between the plates is 120 V/m.

(c) is correct option.

Explanation:

Given that,

Potential difference = 12 volt

Distance = 10 cm = 0.1 m

We need to calculate the electric field between the plates

Using formula of electric field

E = \dfrac{V}{d}

Where, V = potential difference

d = distance between the plates

Put the formula

E =\dfrac{12}{0.1}

E=120\ V/m

Hence, The electric field between the plates is 120 V/m.

A simple and common technique for accelerating electrons is shown in the figure, where there is a uniform electric field between
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer : 4.483\times 10^{15}\ m/s^2.

Explanation:

It is given that,

Electric field strength, E=2.55\times 10^{4}\ N/C

We know that,

Charge of electron, q=1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C

Mass of electron, m=9.1\times 10^{-31}\ kg

From the definition of electric field, F=qE...............(1)

According to Newton's second law, F = ma..........(2)

From equation (1) and (2)

ma=qE

a=\dfrac{qE}{m}

a=\dfrac{1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C\times 2.55\times 10^{4}\ N/C }{9.1\times 10^{-31}\ kg}

a=0.4483\times 10^{16}\ m/s^2

or

a=4.483\times 10^{15}\ m/s^2

So, the horizontal component of acceleration of an electron is 4.483\times 10^{15}\ m/s^2.

Hence, it is the required solution.

3. An explosion of gas from a Hawaiian volcano blows a bunch of rocks into the sky. Each has 2000J of
anzhelika [568]

Answer: 3.906kg

Explanation:

K.E = 2000J

V = 32m/s

m =?

K.E = 1/2MV2

2000 = 1/2M x (32^2)

2000 = 1/2M x 1024

2000 = 512M

M = 2000/512

M = 3.906kg

You and a friend each carry a 15 kg suitcase up two flights of stairs, walking at a constant speed. Take each suitcase to be the
AlekseyPX

Answer:

Both of you did the same work but you expended more power.

Explanation:              

<em>Work done</em> by an object is calculated by force applied multiplied by the distance.

  W=F*d

From the figure given below let us calculate force applied bith you and yopur friend.

Let us take the stairs in positive x direction,

Work done by you W₁ ,

The force applied Fₓ = F - mgsinθ =maₓ

here aₓ = 0, because both of you move with constant speed

F - mgsinθ = 0

F=  mgsinθ

The work done by you on the suitcase is

W = F L cos0°  ,    where L is he length of the staircase.

W = FL = mgsinθL ,  by substituting value of F

Work done by you is W₁ = mgLsinθ

Similarly work done by your friend is W₂ = mgLsinθ.

Because both of you carry suitcase of same weight and in staircase is in same angle the force applied is same .

Therefore <em>work done by both of you is same</em> . Both of you did equal work.

The power , is defined as amount of energy converted or transfered per second or rate at which work is done .

P =\frac{W}{t} =\frac{FL}{t}

Power spend by you P₁ = mgLsinθ/t

P₁ = 15*9.8*Lsinθ/30

P₁ = 4.9L sinθ  eqn 1

Power spend by your friend is P₂ = mgLsinθ/t

P₂ =15*9.8*Lsinθ/60

P₂ = 2.45Lsinθ    eqn 2

Dividing eqn 1 and eqn 2

P₁ = 2P₂

You have spend more power than your friend .

Hence Both of you did equal work but you spend more power.

Three people, John, Paul, and George, stand on top of Garage A to carry out a physics experiment by tossing tennis balls off the
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

1) John's ball lands last.

2) All three have the same total energy

Explanation:

John's ball will land last because his ball was projected at the largest angle. This means that the ball will spend more time in the air when compared to the other balls.

The total energy in a projected particle is the sum of its kinetic energy (0.5mv^2) and its potential energy due to its height (mgh). The total kinetic energy can be as a result of both, or at times fully transformed to either of the energy. For example, at the maximum height, the kinetic energy of John's ball is zero and is fully transformed into potential energy due to that height, whereas George's ball will mostly posses kinetic energy and a little potential energy. The three ball are assumed to have the same properties and are projected with the same initial velocity. This means that they all have the same kinetic energy at the instance of projection which can then be transformed into potential energy, or maintained as a combination of both throughout the flight or simply transformed into potential energy, but the total energy is always conserved.
