Answer:

Use F = m*a

Explanation:

If you are given the mass of the two different bodies, you could rearrange these equations, plug in the mass of the unknown body to find the unknown force

An electron is released from rest at a distance of 6.00 cm from a proton. If the proton is held in place, how fast will the elec

lana66690 [7]

Answer:

91.87 m/s

Explanation:

Given:

x = initial distance of the electron from the proton = 6 cm = 0.06 m

y = initial distance of the electron from the proton = 3 cm = 0.03 m
u = initial velocity of the electron = 0 m/s

Assume:

m = mass of an electron = $9.1\times 10^{-31}\ kg$
v = final velocity of the electron
e = magnitude of charge on an electron = $1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C$

p = magnitude of charge on a proton = $1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C$

We know that only only electric field due to proton causes to move from a distance of 6 cm from proton to 3 cm distance from it. This means the electric force force does work on the electron to move it from one initial position to the final position which is equal to the change in potential energy of the electron due to proton.

Now, according to the work-energy theorem, the total work done by the electric force on the electron due to proton is equal to the kinetic energy change in it.

$\therefore \textrm{Kinetic energy change}= \textrm{Change in potential energy}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{2}m(v^2-u^2)= \dfrac{kpe}{y}-\dfrac{kpe}{x}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{2}m(v^2-(0)^2)= \dfrac{kpe}{0.03}-\dfrac{kpe}{0.06}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{2}mv^2= \dfrac{100kpe}{3}-\dfrac{100kpe}{6}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{2}mv^2= \dfrac{100kpe}{6}\\$

$\Rightarrow v^2= \dfrac{100kpe\times 2}{6m}\\\Rightarrow v^2= \dfrac{100kpe}{3m}\\\Rightarrow v^2= \dfrac{100\times 9\times 10^9\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}}{3\times 9.1\times 10^{-31}}\\\Rightarrow v^2=8.44\times 10^3\\\Rightarrow v=91.87\ m/s\\$

Hence, when the electron is at a distance of c cm from the proton, it moves with a velocity of 91.87 m/s.

Which statement correctly differentiates between transmitters and receivers?

jeka94

Answer:

Transmitters send radio waves, and receivers capture radio waves.

Explanation:

Let us look at each of the choices one by one:

(1).Transmitters have antennas, and receivers do not have antennas.

Nope. To send signals transmitters need antennas, and to receive signals the receivers need antennas as well.

(2). Transmitters send radio waves, and receivers capture radio waves.

This is true. Transmitters are for transmitting and receivers are for receiving EM signals.

(3). Transmitters have demodulators, and receivers have modulators.

No, it is the other way around. Transmitters have modulators, and receivers have demodulators.

(4). Transmitters do not have amplifiers, and receivers have amplifiers.

Nope. Both the transmitters and the receivers need amplifiers. Transmitters need them to increase the power of the broadcast, and receivers need them to amplify the signal for processing.

Therefore, only the 2nd statement "Transmitters send radio waves, and receivers capture radio waves." is correct.

A tiny 0.0250 -microgram oil drop containing 15 excess electrons is suspended between to horizontally closely-spaced metal plate

qaws [65]

Answer:

(a) 12 × 10⁻³ C = 12 mC (b) The lower plate

Explanation:

Given

mass of oil drop, m = 0.025 μg = 0.025 × 10⁻⁶

radius of plates, r = 6.50 cm = 6.5 × 10⁻² m

k = 1/4πε₀ = 9.0 × 10⁹ Nm²/C²

electric charge, e= 1.6 × 10⁻¹⁹ C

charge on oil drop, q = 15e

charge on plates, Q = ?

First, we find the charge density of the plates, D = Q/A where Q = charge on plates and A = area of plates. Since the plates are circular, the area is given by A=πr² where r = radius of plates. D=Q/πr²

Also, the electric field, E between the plates is given by E = D/ε =Q/Aε = Q/ε₀πr².

The force on the oil drop due to the electric field between the plates is given by F = qE = qQ/ε₀πr².

Since the oil drop is suspended between the plates, it means that the electric force due to the field on the oil drop balances the weight of the oil drop. So, since weight of oil drop W = mg where g = 9.8 m/s². F =W (for oil drop suspension).

So, qQ/ε₀πr²=mg

So, Q=mgε₀πr²/q

From k = 1/4πε₀, ε₀=1/4πk

So, Q = mgπr²/4πkq = mgr²/4kq = (0.025 × 10⁻⁶ × 9.8 × (6.5 × 10⁻²)²)÷(4 × 9 × 10⁹ × 15 × 1.6 × 10⁻¹⁹)= 0.012 C = 12 mC

(b) The lower plate must be positive because, the direction of the electric field must be upwards, so as to balance out the weight of the oil drop so as to suspend it.
