An electric field can be created by a single charge or a distribution of charges. The electric field a distance from a point charge has magnitude E = k|q'|/r^2. The electric field points away from positive charges and toward negative charges. A distribution of charges creates an electric field that can be found by taking the vector sum of the fields created by individual point harges. Note that if a charge is placed in an electric field created by q', q will not significantly affect the electric field if it is small compared to q'. Imagine an isolated positive point charge with a charge Q (many times larger than the charge on a single electron).
1. There is a single electron at a distance from the point charge. On which of the following quantities does the force on the electron depend?
a. the distance between the positive charge and the electron
b. the charge on the electron
c. the mass of the electron
d. the charge of the positive charge
e. the mass of the positive charge
f. the radius of the positive charge
g. the radius of the electron
2. For the same situation as in Part A, on which of the following quantities does the electric field at the electron's position depend?
a. the distance between the positive charge and the electron
b. the charge on the electron
c. the mass of the electron
d. the charge of the positive charge
e. the mass of the positive charge
f. the radius of the positive charge
g. the radius of the electron

As part of an industrial process, air as an ideal gas at 10 bar, 400k expands at steady state through a valve to a pressure of 4 bar. the mass flow rate of air is 0.5 kg/s. the air then passes through a heat exchanger where it is cooled to a temperature of 295k with negligible change in pressure. the valve can be modeled as a throttling process, and kinetic and potential energy effects can be neglected. (a) for a control volume enclosing the valve and heat exchanger and enough of the local surroundings that the heat transfer occurs at the ambient temperature of 295 k, determine the rate of entropy production, in kw/k. (b) if the expansion valve were replaced by an adiabatic turbine operating isentropically, what would be the entropy production? compare the results of parts (a) and (b) and discuss.

Acyclotron is used to produce a beam of high-energy deuterons that then collide with a target to produce radioactive isotopes for a medical procedure. deuterons are nuclei of deuterium, an isotope of hydrogen, consisting of one neutron and one proton, with total mass 3.34×10−27kg. the deuterons exit the cyclotron with a kinetic energy of 6.40 mev .a-what is the speed of the deuterons when they exit? b-if the magnetic field inside the cyclotron is 1.25 t, what is the diameter of the deuterons' largest orbit, just before they exit? c-if the beam current is 350 μa how many deuterons strike the target each second?
