Answer:

A book on its side exerts a greater force.

Explanation:

Pressure = Force / Area

Assuming that 1kg = 10N

2kg = 20N

Area of book lying flat = 0.3m × 0.2m

                                     = 0.6m²

Pressure of book lying flat = 20N / 0.6m²

                                            = 30Pa (1 s.f.)

Area of book on its side = 0.2m × 0.05m

                                        = 0.01m²

Pressure of book on its side = 20N / 0.01m²

                                               = 2000Pa (1 s.f.)

Since 2000Pa (1 s.f.) > 30Pa (1 s.f.), a book on its side applies greater pressure than lying flat.

Inside a vacuum tube, an electron is in the presence of a uniform electric field with a magnitude of 320 N/C. (a) What is the ma
nignag [31]

(a) The magnitude of the acceleration of the electron is 5.62 x 10¹³ m/s².

(b) The speed of the electron after the given time is  4.78 x 10⁵ m/s.

<h3>Acceleration of the electron</h3>

The acceleration of the electron is calculated as follows;

F = qE

ma = qE

a = qE/m

a = (1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ x 320)/(9.11 x 10⁻³¹)

a = 5.62 x 10¹³ m/s²

<h3>Speed of the electron</h3>

v = at

v = 5.62 x 10¹³ m/s² x  8.50 x 10⁻⁹ s

v = 4.78 x 10⁵ m/s

Can you explain to be the definition of Quantum Theory?
Vanyuwa [196]
Quantum Theory is commonly related to Quantum Mechanics, or the physics of sub-atomic particles. Quantum Theory defines the theories or educated ideas behind Quantum Mechanics. I believe this is the answer you are looking for.
