A proton is moving horizontally halfway between two parallel plates that are separated by 0.60 cm. The electric field due to the plates has magnitude 720,000 N/C between the plates away from the edges. If the plates are 5.6 cm long, find the minimum speed of the proton if it just misses the lower plate as it emerges from the field.

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

v = 4,244,699 m/s = (4.245 × 10⁶) m/s

Explanation:

The electric force on the proton is given by

F = qE

where q = charge on the proton = (1.602 × 10⁻¹⁹) C

E = Electric field = 720,000 N/C

F = (1.602 × 10⁻¹⁹ × 720000)

F = (1.153 × 10⁻¹³) N

But this force will accelerate the proton in this magnetic field in a form of trajectory motion.

We can obtain the acceleration using Newton's first law of motion relation

F = ma

m = mass of a proton = (1.673 × 10⁻²⁷) kg

a = (F/m)

a = (1.153 × 10⁻¹³)/(1.673 × 10⁻²⁷)

a = 68,944,411,237,298 m/s²

a = (6.894 × 10¹³) m/s²

This acceleration directs the proton from the positive plate to the negative plate, covering a distance of y = 0.006 m (the distance between the plates)

Using Equations of motion, we can obtain the time taken for the proton to move from the rest at the positive plate to the negative one.

u = initial velocity of the proton = 0 m/s

y = vertical distance covered by the proton = 0.006 m

a = acceleration of the proton in this direction = (6.894 × 10¹³) m/s²

t = time taken for the proton to complete this distance = ?

y = ut + (1/2) at²

0.006 = 0 + [(1/2)×(6.894 × 10¹³)×t²]

0.006 = (3.447 × 10¹³) t²

t² = (0.006)/(3.447 × 10¹³)

t² = 1.741 × 10⁻¹⁶

t = (1.32 × 10⁻⁸) s

Then we can then calculate the minimum speed to navigate the entire length of the plates without hitting the plates.

v = ?

x = 0.056 n

t = (1.32 × 10⁻⁸)

v = (x/t)

v = (0.056)/(1.32 × 10⁻⁸)

v = 4,244,699 m/s = (4.245 × 10⁶) m/s

Hope this Helps!!!

Answer 2
Answer:

Answer:

v = 9.09×10⁵m/s

Explanation:

Given

d = the distance between plates = 0.6cm = 0.006

E = Electric field strength = 720000N/C

m =mass of the proton = 1.67 ×10-²⁷ kg

The

Electric potential energy of the field is converted into the the kinetic energy of the proton.

So

qV = 1/2mv²

But V = Ed

So q(Ed) = 1/2mv²

v² = 2qEd/m

v = √(2qEd/m)

v = √(2×1.6×10-¹⁹×720000×0.006/1.67×10-²⁷)

v = 9.09×10⁵m/s

A magnet of mass 0.20 kg is dropped from rest and falls vertically through a 35.0 cm copper tube. Eddy currents are induced, causing the copper to warm up. The speed of the magnet as it emerges from the tube is 1.10 m/s. How much heat energy is dissipated to the environment?

Answers

Answer:

0.58 J

Explanation:

We know that Total energy is conserved.

Initial Kinetic energy + Initial potential energy = final kinetic energy+ final potential energy + dissipated heat energy

Initial kinetic energy = 0 ( magnet is at rest initially)

Initial Potential energy = m g h = (0.20 kg)(9.81 m/s²)(0.35 m) = 0.69 J

Final kinetic energy = 0.5 m v² = 0.5 ×0.20 kg × 1.10 m/s = 0.11 J

Final potential energy = 0

∴ Dissipated heat energy = (0.69 -0.11) J = 0.58 J

Air that enters the pleural space during inspiration but is unable to exit during expiration creates a condition called a. open pneumothorax. b. empyema. c. pleural effusion. d. tension pneumothorax.

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is d. tension pneumothorax.

Explanation:

The increasing build-up of air that is in the pleural space is what we call the tension pneumothorax and this happens due to the lung laceration that lets the air to flee inside the pleural space but it does not return.

Rapid increase in knowledge

International collaboration

Explanation:

Our knowledge of the solar system has increased greatly in the past few years due to to some factors which are listed below.

Improvement in observational, and exploratory technology: In recent years, developments in technology has led to the invention of advanced observational instruments and probes, that are used to study the solar system. Also more exploratory units are now developed to go out into the solar system and gather useful data which is then further processed to yield more results about our solar system.

Rapid increase in knowledge: The past few years has seen an increased number of theories proposed to explain phenomena in the solar system. Some of these theories have been seen to be accurate under experimentation, leading to newer and fresher insights into our solar system. Also, new experiments and research are carried out, all these leading to an exponential growth in our knowledge of the solar system.

International Collaboration: The sharing of knowledge by scientists all over has led to a better, quick understanding of the solar system. Also, scientists from  different countries, working together on different experiment and data sharing regarding our solar system now allows our knowledge of the solar system to deepen faster.
