In a certain region of space, a uniform electric field has a magnitude of 4.30 x 104 n/c and points in the positive x direction.

find the magnitude and direction of the force this field exerts on a charge of +6.80 μc.

The magnetic force exerted by a field E to a charge q is given by F=Eq. In this case, F=4.30*10^4*(6.80mu C). 1mu C=10^-6C, so F=4.30*6.80=10^-2=0.29N. The direction is in the x direction, the direction that the field is applied because the charge is positive.

What do you mean by velocity ratio of a wheel and axle

IgorC [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

In wheel and axle. …with the system is the velocity ratio, or the ratio of the velocity (VF) with which the operator pulls the rope at F to the velocity at which the weight W is raised (VW). This ratio is equal to twice the radius of the large drum divided by the difference…

Accelerating charges radiate electromagnetic waves. Calculate the wavelength of radiation produced by a proton of mass mp moving

Iteru [2.4K]

Explanation:

Let $m_p$ is the mass of proton. It is moving in a circular path perpendicular to a magnetic field of magnitude B.

The magnetic force is balanced by the centripetal force acting on the proton as :

$\dfrac{mv^2}{r}=qvB$

r is the radius of path,

$r=\dfrac{mv}{qB}$

Time period is given by :

$T=\dfrac{2\pi r}{v}$

$T=\dfrac{2\pi m_p}{qB}$

Frequency of proton is given by :

$f=\dfrac{1}{T}=\dfrac{qB}{2\pi m_p}$

The wavelength of radiation is given by :

$\lambda=\dfrac{c}{f}$

$\lambda=\dfrac{2\pi m_pc}{qB}$

So, the wavelength of radiation produced by a proton is $\dfrac{2\pi m_pc}{qB}$ . Hence, this is the required solution.

A mass free to vibrate on a level, frictionless surface at the end of a horizontal spring is pulled 35 cm from its equilibrium p

saul85 [17]

Answer:

0.67 s

Explanation:

This is a simple harmonic motion (SHM).

The displacement, $x$ , of an SHM is given by

$x = A\cos(\omega t)$

A is the amplitude and $\omega$ is the angular frequency.

We could use a sine function, in which case we will include a phase angle, to indicate that the oscillation began from a non-equilibrium point. We are using the cosine function for this particular case because the oscillation began from an extreme end, which is one-quarter of a single oscillation, when measured from the equilibrium point. One-quarter of an oscillation corresponds to a phase angle of 90° or $\frac{\pi}{4}$ radian.

From trigonometry, $\sin A =\cos B$ if A and B are complementary.

At $t = 0$ , $x = 3.5$

$3.5 = A\cos(\omega \times0)$

$A =3.5$

So

$x = 3.5\cos(\omega t)$

At $t = 0.12$ , $x = 1.5$

$1.5 = 3.5\cos(0.12\omega)$

$\cos(0.12\omega)=\dfrac{1.5}{3.5}=0.4286$

$0.12\omega =\cos^{-1}0.4286$

$0.12\omega = 1.13$

$\omega = 9.4$

The period, $T$ , is related to $\omega$ by

$T = \dfrac{2\pi}{\omega} = \dfrac{2\times3.14}{9.4}=0.67$
