    Help With Balancing CO2+ Mg -> MgC + O2

    well... the problem only gave me the first part of the equation which was the CO2 + Mg. This is the chemical process that occurs when dry ice is mixed with burning Magnesium pellets, which creates this fire work type of reaction. I figured that the magnesium and carbon will combine and release...

    What am I suppose to do?

    Wahh... 1) it's watts not joules ... sorry. :cry: 2) wow.. I^2 R --> (5.00Amps)^2 (0.200 ohms) = 5.00 watts

    What am I suppose to do?

    lol.. ur funny. Well... here's what I have now: a) emf =1.00 V b) I=5.00 Amps, Fmag=1.25N c) Fv=5.00j wait.. u got me.. crap.. I keep messing up. Thnx for dealing with my overwhelming stupidity.

    What am I suppose to do?

    Ok. a) emf= Bvl --> (4.00m/s)(0.500T)(0.0500m) = .100 V b) I=emf/R --> (0.100V)/(0.200 ohms) = 0.500 A Fmag= IBl --> (.500Amps)(0.500T)(0.0500m) = 0.0125N

    More Magnetism problems

    Well... since I knew how much volts there is, I figured that it is faster to just use that formula where k is the Coulomb constant (8.99x10^9 Nm^2/C^2), then just solve for the radius. Is it possible to use this equation like that?

    I'm confused if I am using the right equations to solve this problem. P: A singly charged Li^7 ion has a mass of 1.16x10^-26kg. It is accelerated through a potential difference of 500 Volts and then enters a magnetic field of 0.4 Teslas, moving perpendicular to the field. What is the radius...

    What is the magnitude of the field?

    So what you're trying to say is that since I know the voltage, I should multiply it by the charge of an electron (1.60 x 10^-19 C). By doing so, I will get the total energy, which I can use in the kinetic energy equation to solve for the velocity. That sounds great. So there's no need for me to...

    What is the magnitude of the field?

    Sorry, I don't know the answer. I wasn't sure about the velocity part either. Because I used U=1/2 mv^2, which is for springs, i think. How did u solve it? And the V= U/q is for volts.
