Answer:

r = 0.114 m

Explanation:

To find the speed of the proton, from conservation of energy, we know that

KE = PE

Thus, we have;

(1/2)mv² = qV

Where;

V is potential difference = 1kv = 1000V

q is charge on proton which has a value of 1.6 x 10^(-19) C

m is mass of proton with a constant value of 1.67 x 10^(-27) kg

Let's make the velocity v the subject;

v =√(2qV/m)

v = √(2•1.6 x 10^(-19)•1000)/(1.67 x 10^(-27))

v = 4.377 x 10^(5) m/s

Now to calculate the radius of the circular motion of charge we know that;

F = mv²/r = qvB

Thus, mv²/r = qvB

Divide both sides by v;

mv/r = qB

Thus, r = mv/qB

Value of B from question is 0.04T

Thus,

r = (1.67 x 10^(-27) x 4.377 x 10^(5))/(1.6 x 10^(-19) x 0.04)

r = 0.114 m

r = 8.76 m

There is an electromagnetic wave traveling in the -z direction in a standard right-handed coordinate system. What is the directi
wlad13 [49]

Answer: The direction of the electric field, E→, is pointed in the +y direction.

Explanation:

One can use the right hand rule to illustrate the direction of travel of an electromagnetic and thereby get the directions of the electric field, magnetic field and direction of travel of the wave.

The right hand rule states that the direction of the thumb indicate the direction of travel of the electromagnetic wave (<em>in this case the -z direction</em>) and the curling of the fingers point in the direction of the magnetic field  B→ (<em>in this case the +x direction</em>), therefore, the electric field direction E→ is in the direction of the fingers which would be pointed towards the +y direction.

A 4.0-mF capacitor initially charged to 50 V and a 6.0-mF capacitor charged to 30 V are connected to each other with the positiv
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

<em>The final charge on the 6.0 mF capacitor would be 12 mC</em>

Explanation:

The initial charge on 4 mF capacitor  = 4 mf  x 50 V = 200 mC

The initial Charge on 6 mF capacitor  = 6 mf x 30 V =180 mC

Since the negative ends are joined together  the total charge on both capacity would be;

q = q_{1} -q_{2}

q = 200 - 180

q = 20 mC

In order to find the final charge on the 6.0 mF capacitor we have to find the combined voltage

q = (4 x V) + (6 x V)

20 = 10 V

V = 2 V

For the final charge on 6.0 mF;

q = CV

q = 6.0 mF x 2 V

q =  12 mC

Therefore the final charge on the 6.0 mF capacitor would be 12 mC

A 1000-kg car is driving toward the north along a straight horizontal road at a speed of 20.0 m/s. The driver applies the brakes
OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

Explanation:

mass of car, m = 1000 kg

initial velocity, u = 20 m/s

final velocity, v = 0 m/s

distance, s = 120 m

Let a be the acceleration of motion

use third equation of motion

v² = u² + 2 as

0 = 20 x 20 + 2 x a x 120

a = - 1.67 m/s²

Let F be the force

Force, F  mass x acceleration

F = - 1000 x 1.67

F = - 1666.67 N

The direction of force is towards south and the magnitude of force is 1666.67 N.

The heating curve of an ice-water mixture that is slowly heated to 125??C contains three sloped and two level portions. What do
BigorU [14]
I believe the answer is D. phase changes. The two level portions represents change of state that does not involve change in temperature (at a constant temperature). The first level represents a change of solid to liquid;p where the ice melts and becomes water by gaining the latent heat of fusion, while the other level represents a change of state from liquid to gas; the water changes to steam (water vapor) by gaining the latent heat of vaporization.

Aldis is swinging a ball tied to the end of a string over his head. Suddenly, the string breaks and the ball flies away. Arrow b
prisoha [69]

Answer:

Straight line in the direction of the tangential velocity the ball had at the moment the string broke

Explanation:

After the string breaks, the ball now disconnected from the centripetal force that was exerted via the string, continues its travel in a straight line in the direction of the tangential velocity it had at the moment the string broke.
