Answer:

When electric voltage is applied, an electric field within the metal triggers the movement of the electrons, making them shift from one end to another end of the conductor. Electrons will move toward the positive side.

Bare free charges do not remain stationary when close together. To illustrate this, calculate the acceleration of two isolated p

Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

Acceleration, $a=9.91\times 10^{15}\ m/s^2$

Explanation:

It is given that,

Separation between the protons, $r=3.73\ nm=3.73\times 10^{-9}\ m$

Charge on protons, $q=1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C$

Mass of protons, $m=1.67\times 10^{-27}\ kg$

We need to find the acceleration of two isolated protons. It can be calculated by equating electric force between protons and force due to motion as :

$ma=\dfrac{kq^2}{r^2}$

$a=\dfrac{kq^2}{mr^2}$

$a=\dfrac{9\times 10^9\times (1.6\times 10^{-19})^2}{1.67\times 10^{-27}\times (3.73\times 10^{-9})^2}$

$a=9.91\times 10^{15}\ m/s^2$

So, the acceleration of two isolated protons is $9.91\times 10^{15}\ m/s^2$ . Hence, this is the required solution.

7) A kite 50 ft above the ground moves horizontally at a speed of 4 ft/sec. At what rate is the length of the string increasing

d1i1m1o1n [39]

Imagine a right triangle where the legs represent the horizontal and vertical lengths of the string and the hypotenuse represents the length of the string.

Let us assign some values:

x = horizontal length in feet

50 = vertical length in feet

L = length of the string in feet

Because we are modeling these quantities with a right triangle, we can use the Pythagorean theorem to relate them with the following equation:

L² = x² + 50²

We want to find an equation for the change of L over time, so first differentiate both sides with respect to time t then solve for dL/dt:

2L(dL/dt) = 2x(dx/dt)

dL/dt = (x/L)(dx/dt)

First let's solve for x at the moment in time described in the problem using the Pythagorean theorem:

L² = x² + 50²

Given values:

L = 100ft

Plug in and solve for x:

100² = x² + 50²

x = 86.6ft

Now let's find dL/dt. Given values:

x = 86.6ft, L = 100ft, dx/dt = 4ft/sec

Plug in and solve for dL/dt:

dL/dt = (86.6/100)(4)

dL/dt = 3.46ft/sec
