The net force on the block perpendicular to the floor is

∑ F[perp] = F[normal] - mg = 0

so that

F[normal] = (5 kg) g = 49 N

Then

F[friction] = 0.1 F[normal] = 4.9 N

so that the net force parallel to the floor is

∑ F[para] = -4.9 N = (5 kg) a

Solve for the acceleration a :

a = (-4.9 N) / (5 kg) = -0.98 m/s²

Starting with an initial velocity of 5 m/s, the box comes to a stop after time t such that

0 = 5 m/s - (0.98 m/s²) t

⇒   t ≈ 5.1 s

By what potential difference must a proton [m_0 = 1.67E-27 kg) be accelerated to have a wavelength lambda = 4.23E-12 m? By what
Vinil7 [7]

Explanation:

1. Mass of the proton, m_p=1.67\times 10^{-27}\ kg

Wavelength, \lambda_p=4.23\times 10^{-12}\ m

We need to find the potential difference. The relationship between potential difference and wavelength is given by :

\lambda=\dfrac{h}{\sqrt{2m_pq_pV}}

V=\dfrac{h^2}{2q_pm_p\lambda^2}

V=\dfrac{(6.62\times 10^{-34})^2}{2\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 1.67\times 10^{-27}\times (4.23\times 10^{-12})^2}

V = 45.83 volts

2. Mass of the electron, m_p=9.1\times 10^{-31}\ kg

Wavelength, \lambda_p=4.23\times 10^{-12}\ m

We need to find the potential difference. The relationship between potential difference and wavelength is given by :

\lambda=\dfrac{h}{\sqrt{2m_eq_eV}}

V=\dfrac{h^2}{2q_em_e\lambda^2}

V=\dfrac{(6.62\times 10^{-34})^2}{2\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 9.1\times 10^{-31}\times (4.23\times 10^{-12})^2}

V=6.92\times 10^{34}\ V

V = 84109.27 volt

Hence, this is the required solution.

Consider a loop of wire with a resistor. In the same plane, (with switch S closed) a long wire has a current I flowing from left
Ulleksa [173]

Solution :

The given figure is a loop of a wire with a resistor.

When the switch S is closed for long time and is suddenly opened, the direction of the induced current can be find out by using the rule of right hand screw. According to the right hand screw rule, the direction of the magnetic field at the loop is in the direction that points outwards. The strength of the current rapidly decreases as it is switch off and the magnetic flux that is linked with the loop wire will also decrease.

According to the Lenz's law, the direction of the induced current must be such $\text{that it opposes}$ the decrease in the magnetic flux.  It means the direction of the magnetic field must be outwards and also normal to the plane of the screen. The direction of the induced anti clockwise or from right to left in the resistance.
