Hi there!

I. They are the same.

Due to the Conservation of Momentum, an explosion as such means that the TOTAL momentum of the system (all of the pieces) is conserved.

See coulomb's law. Force is inversely proportional to the distance squared. So if you multiply r by 2, the force is multiplied by (½)² = ¼.

Learning Goal: To be able to calculate work done by a constant force directed at different angles relative to displacement

svlad2 [7]

Answer:

Woke done, W = 4156.92 Joules

Explanation:

The work done by the force can be calculated as :

$W=F\times s$

$W=Fs\ cos\theta$

$\theta$ is the angle between force and the displacement

It is assumed to find the work done for the given parameters i.e.

Force, F = 30 N

Distance travelled, s = 160 m

Angle between force and displacement, $\theta=30$

Work done is given by :

$W=Fs\ cos\theta$

$W=30\times 160\ cos(30)$

W = 4156.92 Joules

So, the work done by the object is 4156.92 Joules. Hence, this is the required solution.

An electron is accelrated by a unifor electric field (1000v/m) pointing vertically upward. Use energy methods to get the magnitu

ExtremeBDS [4]

Explanation:

In the given situation two forces are working. These are:

1) Electric force (acting in the downward direction) = qE

2) weight (acting in the downward direction) = mg

Therefore, work done by all the forces = change in kinetic energy

Hence, $qE \times S + mg \times S = 0.5 \times mv^{2}$

$1.6 \times 10^{-19} \times 1000 + 9.1 \times 10^{-31} \times 9.8 \times (\frac{0.10}{100}) = 0.5 \times 9.1 \times 10^{-31} \times v^{2}$

It is known that the weight of electron is far less compared to electric force. Therefore, we can neglect the weight and the above equation will be as follows.

$(1.6 \times 10^{-19} \times 1000) \times (\frac{0.10}{100}) = 0.5 \times 9.1 \times 10^{-31} \times v^{2
}$

v = $sqrt{\frac{1.6 \times 10^{-19}}{(0.5 \times 9.1 \times 10^{-31})}$

= 592999 m/s

Since, the electron is travelling downwards it means that it looses the potential energy.
