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>

In a sonometer by what change in linear density of wire its velocity becomes double? Keeping tension of wire constant
faltersainse [42]

Answer:

Explanation:

In a sonometer , expression for speed of wave produced can be given as follows .

v = \sqrt{\frac{T}{m} }

v is velocity , T is tension in wire , m is density per unit length .

Here v is inversely proportional to square root of m . So if m becomes m / 4

velocity changes as follows .

velocity = \sqrt{\frac{T}{\frac{m}{4} } }

= \sqrt{\frac{4T}{m} }

= 2v

velocity becomes two times . Hence to make velocity two times , mass per unit length  has to be changed to one fourth value , keeping tension constant .
