Answer:
a) 17.33 V/m
b) 6308 m/s
Explanation:
We start by using equation of motion
s = ut + 1/2at², where
s = 1.2 cm = 0.012 m
u = 0 m/s
t = 3.8*10^-6 s, so that
0.012 = 0 * 3.8*10^-6 + 0.5 * a * (3.8*10^-6)²
0.012 = 0.5 * a * 1.444*10^-11
a = 0.012 / 7.22*10^-12
a = 1.66*10^9 m/s²
If we assume the electric field to be E, and we know that F =qE. Also, from Newton's law, we have F = ma. So that, ma = qE, and E = ma/q, where
E = electric field
m = mass of proton
a = acceleration
q = charge of proton
E = (1.67*10^-27 * 1.66*10^9) / 1.6*10^-19
E = 2.77*10^-18 / 1.6*10^-19
E = 17.33 V/m
Final speed of the proton can be gotten by using
v = u + at
v = 0 + 1.66*10^9 * 3.8*10^-6
v = 6308 m/s
Answer:
a) 3.43 m/s
Explanation:
Due to the law of conservation of momentum, the total momentum of the bullet - rifle system must be conserved.
The total momentum before the bullet is shot is zero, because they are both at rest, so:
Instead the total momentum of the system after the shot is:
where:
m = 0.006 kg is the mass of the bullet
M = 1.4 kg is the mass of the rifle
v = 800 m/s is the velocity of the bullet
V is the recoil velocity of the rifle
The total momentum is conserved, therefore we can write:
Which means:
Solving for V, we can find the recoil velocity of the rifle:
where the negative sign indicates that the velocity is opposite to direction of the bullet: so the recoil speed is
a) 3.43 m/s
When Sam presses the brake lever, a pair of rubber shoes clamps onto the metal inner rim of the front and back wheels. As the brake shoes rub against the wheels, friction is caused and the kinetic energy possessed by the vehicle is converted into heat which slows down the vehicle.
Answer:
Explanation:
Stress is the force applied to a rock and may cause deformation. The three main types of stress are typical of the three types of plate boundaries: compression at convergent boundaries, tension at divergent boundaries, and shear at transform boundaries.
