The speed is changing its direction all the time. There
is an acceleration which changes the direction of the speed – that is called
centripetal acceleration. Only uniform linear motions are considered to have no
acceleration.
This is the general formula for acceleration
a = dv/dt
When calculating dv, you should keep in mind the change
in the velocity vector’s direction. You can easily see in a graph that with dt
tending to 0 (so the length of the arc covered is also tending to 0), the difference
between vectors Vf and V0 has a direction which is perpendicular to velocity
(the shorter the arc, the closest the angle is to 90 degrees).
There is a formula (which can be deducted from the
previous formula) which allows you to calculate the acceleration:
a = v^2/r
Let’s talk about the units:
v is in m/s
r is in m
so v^2/r
is in (m/s)^2/m = (m^2/s^2)/m = m/s^2
which is the same unit as dv/dt:
dv/dt = (m/s)/s= m/s^2
Answer:
#_photons = 30 photons / s
Explanation:
Let's start by finding the energy of a photon of light, let's use the Planck relation
E = h f
the speed of light is related to wavelength and frequency
c = λ f
we substitute
E = h c /λ
E₀ = 6.63 10⁻³⁴ 3 10⁸/500 10⁻⁹
E₀ = 3.978 10⁻¹⁹ J
now let's use a direct proportion rule. If the energy of a photon is Eo, how many fornes has an energy E = 1.2 10⁻¹⁷ J in a second
#_photons = 1 photon (E / Eo)
#_photons = 1 1.2 10⁻¹⁷ /3.978 10⁻¹⁹
#_photons = 3.0 10¹
#_photons = 30 photons / s
The electron is accelerated through a potential difference of
, so the kinetic energy gained by the electron is equal to its variation of electrical potential energy:
where
m is the electron mass
v is the final speed of the electron
e is the electron charge
is the potential difference
Re-arranging this equation, we can find the speed of the electron before entering the magnetic field:
Now the electron enters the magnetic field. The Lorentz force provides the centripetal force that keeps the electron in circular orbit:
where B is the intensity of the magnetic field and r is the orbital radius. Since the radius is r=25 cm=0.25 m, we can re-arrange this equation to find B:
Answer:
A mutation is a change in DNA, the hereditary material of life. An organism's DNA affects how it looks, how it behaves, and its physiology. So a change in an organism's DNA can cause changes in all aspects of its life. Mutations are essential to evolution; they are the raw material of genetic variation

You will need t find the volume of the sphere
4/3 pi r^3 divide into the mass
