An electron is placed in a region with a 1010 V/m electric field directed in the positive x-direction. The electron escapes this region after traveling 14.0 cm. What is the kinetic energy of the electron? What is the particle's velocity? Will a proton placed at the same initial position and traveling through a similar 14.0 cm path acquire the same amount of kinetic energy? Will the proton experience the same change in velocity? Why or why not?
I have seen this question on here before but the velocity portion was not present.

As part of a liability defence (see the Wikipedia page on
Liebeck v. McDonald's for a similar case), lawyers at Tim Hortons
have hired you to determine the temperature of a cup of Tim
Horton's coffee when it was initially poured. However, you only
have measurements of the coffee's temperature taken after it has
been purchased. According to Newton's Law of Cooling, an object
that is warmer than a fixed environmental temperature will cool
over time according to the following relationship:
T(t)=E+(Tinit−E)e−ktT(t)=E+(Tinit−E)e−kt
where EE is the constant environmental temperature, and TT is the
temperature of the object at time tt. The object has initial
temperature TinitTinit.
Below you are given a data set measured from a purchased cup of
coffee. The external temperature of the room is 2020 °C. The
temperature of the coffee TiTi is given for several titi, where
titi is the time in minutes since the coffee was poured.
Transform the solution T(t)T(t) by putting the exponential term on
one side and everything else on the other and taking natural logs
of both sides to get:
ln(T(t)−E)=ln(Tinit−E)−kt.ln(T(t)−E)=ln(Tinit−E)−kt.
Now transform the data below in the same way so that you can use
linear least squares to estimate the unknown parameters TinitTinit
and kk. Fit the transformed data to a line yi=b+axiyi=b+axi, i.e.,
find the values of aa and bb which minimize
f(a,b)=∑i=1((yi)−(b+axi))2f(a,b)=∑i=1((yi)−(b+axi))2:
| t_i (in minutes) | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 |
| T_i (in °C) | 86.1914 | 84.3832 | 88.5955 | 86.5824 | 86.7775 | 79.0971 | 80.4190 | 75.3221 | 74.7302 |
Use the computed coefficients aa and bb to calculate the
following quantities:
What was the initial temperature TinitTinit of the coffee when it
was poured? °C
What is the time constant kk? /min

In Trites v Renin Corp. the court held that there is no constructive dismissal where a temporary layoff has been rolled out in accordance with Ontario’s Employment Standards Act. Subsequent cases in Ontario have
|
a
|
confirmed this
principle
|
|
b
|
confirmed this principle but only
as long as the employer acted reasonably and in good faith in
placing the employee on temporary layoff
|
|
c
|
overturned this principle by findng
that a temporary layoff may constitute constructive dismissal even
where the employer complies with the requirements of Ontario’s
Employment Standards Act
|
|
d
|
overturned this principle in some
cases while confirming it in others, depending on the specific
facts of the case

A snake of proper length 100 cm is moving at speed v = 0.6c to the right across the table. A mischievous boy, wishing to tease the snake, holds two hatchets 100 cm apart and plans to bounce them simultaneously on the table so that the left hatchet lands immediately behind the snake’s tail 1 .
The boy argues as follows: “The snake is moving with v = 0.6c, therefore, its length measured in my frame is 100cm γ = 80 cm. This implies that the right hatchet will fall 20 cm in front of the snake, and the snake will be unharmed”. On the other hand, the snake argues “the hatchets are approaching me at 0.6c, and the distance between them is 80 cm. Since I am 100 cm long, I will be cut in pieces when they fall” (it’s a very smart snake).
Use Lorentz transformation to resolve this apparent paradox. In other words, resolve it quantitatively, not just with a qualitative argument about non-simultaneity.
Please show work quantitatively, thanks!
