An electron of kinetic energy 1.59 keV circles in a plane perpendicular to a uniform magnetic field. The orbit radius is 35.4 cm
Blizzard [7]

Answer:

a) v = 2.36 \cdot 10^{7} m/s

b) B = 3.80 \cdot 10^{-4} T

c) f = 1.06 \cdot 10^{7} Hz

d) T = 9.43 \cdot 10^{-8} s

Explanation:

a) We can find the electron's speed by knowing the kinetic energy:

K = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2}

Where:    

K: is the kinetic energy = 1.59 keV

m: is the electron's mass = 9.11x10⁻³¹ kg

v: is the speed =?

v = \sqrt{\frac{2K}{m}} = \sqrt{\frac{2*1.59 \cdot 10^{3} eV*\frac{1.602 \cdot 10^{-19} J}{1 eV}}{9.11 \cdot 10^{-31} kg}} = 2.36 \cdot 10^{7} m/s

b) The electron's speed can be found by using Lorentz's equation:

F = q(v\times B) = qvBsin(\theta)   (1)

Where:

F: is the magnetic force

q: is the electron's charge = 1.6x10⁻¹⁹ C

θ: is the angle between the speed of the electron and the magnetic field = 90°

The magnetic force is also equal to:

F = ma_{c} = m\frac{v^{2}}{r}   (2)

By equating equation (2) with (1) and by solving for B, we have:

B = \frac{mv}{rq} = \frac{9.11 \cdot 10^{-31} kg*2.36 \cdot 10^{7} m/s}{0.354 m*1.6 \cdot 10^{-19} C} = 3.80 \cdot 10^{-4} T

c) The circling frequency is:

f = \frac{1}{T} = \frac{\omega}{2\pi} = \frac{v}{2\pi r}

Where:

T: is the period = 2π/ω

ω: is the angular speed = v/r

f = \frac{v}{2\pi r} = \frac{2.36 \cdot 10^{7} m/s}{2\pi*0.354 m} = 1.06 \cdot 10^{7} Hz

d) The period of the motion is:

T = \frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{1.06 \cdot 10^{7} Hz} = 9.43 \cdot 10^{-8} s

I hope it helps you!

A 40kg rock is perched atop a cliff that is 50 m high. What is it’s potential energy?
LekaFEV [45]
Potential energy, is energy due to its position.

Given: Mass m = 40 Kg;  Height h = 50 m

Required: Potential energy P.E = ?

Formula:  P.E = mgh   P.E = (40 Kg)(9.8 m/s²)(50 m)

                P.E = 19,600 J

An astronaut goes out for a space-walk at a distance above the earth equal to the radius of the earth. What is her acceleration
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:\frac{g}{4}

Explanation:

Let m be the mass of Astronaut

M=mass of earth

G=Gravitational constant

R=radius of Earth

Force Exerted by Earth on Astronaut

F=\frac{GmM}{R^2}

acceleration due to gravity is =\frac{F}{m}=g

g=\frac{GM}{R^2}

When it is at r=2R

g'=\frac{GM}{(2R)^2}

g'=\frac{GM}{4R^2}=\frac{g}{4}
