The change in potential energy of the proton is  5.6 x 10^{-17} Joule

<h3>What is a Uniform Electric Field ?</h3>

A uniform electric field is where the electric field strength is the same at all points in the field. In the uniform field, the force experienced by a charge is the same no matter where it is placed in the field.

Given that a proton moves a distance 10 cm in a uniform electric field of 3.5 kN C, in the direction of the field.

  • The distance d = 10 cm = 0.1 m
  • Electric field E = 3.5 KN/C
  • Proton charge q = 1.6 x 10^{-19} C

The Work done = Fd

but F = Eq

Recall that Electric field E = F/q = V/d

Where V = potential difference.

Let us first calculate the V

E = V/d

V = Ed

Substitute all the parameters into the formula above

V = 3.5 × 10³ × 0.1

V = 350 v

from F/q = V/d

make F the subject of formula and substitute it in work formula

F = Vq/d

W.D = Vq/d x d

W.D = Vq

Substitute all the parameters into the formula above

W.D = 350 x 1.6 x 10^{-19}

W.D = 5.6 x 10^{-17} J

Work done = Energy = Potential Energy

Therefore, the change in potential energy of the proton is 5.6 x 10^{-17}<em> Joule</em>

A particle has velocity v⃗1 v → 1 as it accelerates from 1 to 2. What is its velocity vector v⃗2 v → 2 as it moves away from poi
Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

The velocity of the particle will be downward.

Explanation:

Given that,

The velocity of a particle is v₁. It is accelerated from 1 to 2.

If it moves away from point 2 on its way then

We need to find the velocity of particle

According to figure,

A particle moves downward from 1 to 2 with the velocity v₁ and after that the particle moves downward from 2 to 3 with the velocity v₂.

Hence, The velocity of the particle will be downward.

WITCHER [35]

Answer:

AM radio, FM radio, microwaves, sodium light.

Explanation:

Electromagnetic radiation are waves from electromagnetic field which spread through the space or any other material medium and carries radiating energy. Examples includes X rays, radio waves, Gamma rays, etc. Exposure to high level of electromagnetic radiation could be harmful to human body, on the other hand, science as not been able to prove that exposing humans to low level electromagnetic radiation is harmful to our health.

As a laudably skeptical physics student, you want to test Coulomb's law. For this purpose, you set up a measurement in which a p
kherson [118]

Explanation:

The Coulomb's law states that the magnitude of each of the electric forces between two point-at-rest charges is directly proportional to the product of the magnitude of both charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance that separates them:

F=\frac{kq_1q_2}{d^2}

In this case we have an electron (-e) and a proton (e), so:

F=-\frac{ke^2}{d^2}\\F=-\frac{8.99*10^9\frac{N\cdot m^2}{s^2}(1.6*10^{-19}C)^2}{(933*10^{-9}m)^2}\\F=-2.64*10^{-16}N

In this case, the electric force is negative, therefore, the force is repulsive and its magnitude is:

F=2.64*10^{-16}N
