Answer:

407 steps

Explanation:

From the question,

P = mgh/t........... Equation 1

Where P = power, m = mass, g = acceleration due to gravity, h = height, t = time.

Make h the subject of the equation

h = Pt/mg............. Equation 2

Given: P = 746 W, t = 1 minute = 60 seconds, m = 70 kg.

Constant: g = 9.8 m/s²

Substitute into equation 2

h = 746(60)/(70×9.8)

h = 44760/686

h = 65.25 m

h = 6525 cm

number of steps = 6525/16

number of steps = 407 steps

A 1.2-m radius cylindrical region contains a uniform electric field along the cylinder axis. It is increasing uniformly with tim
eduard

Answer:

The magnitude of rate of change of electric field is 49.95\ V/m{\cdot} s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Radius of the cylindrical region contains a uniform electric field along the cylinder axis, r = 1.2 m

Total displacement current through a cross section of the region, I=2\times 10^{-9}\ A

We need to find the rate of change of electric field. Its is given by the formula as follows :

\dfrac{dE}{dt}=\dfrac{I}{A\epsilon_o}\\\\\dfrac{dE}{dt}=\dfrac{2\times 10^{-9}}{\pi (1.2)^2\times 8.85\times 10^{-12}}\\\\\dfrac{dE}{dt}=49.95\ V/m{\cdot} s

So, the magnitude of rate of change of electric field is 49.95\ V/m{\cdot} s.

A proton, starting from rest, accelerates through a potential difference of 1.0 kV and then moves into a magnetic field of 0.040
adell [148]

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
