If the speed of the particle is doubled. Then the value of the momentum also gets doubled.

<h3>What is momentum?</h3>

The sum of an entity's speed and mass is known as its linear momentum, translational momentum, or simply momentum in Newton's laws of motion. It has both a magnitude and a direction, making it a vector quantity. The SI unit of momentum is kg-m / s.

Let m be the mass and v be the velocity of an object. Then the momentum is given as,

P = mv kg-m / s

A particle is moving at a speed less than c / 2. If the speed of the particle is doubled.

P = m(2v)

P = 2mv

If the particle's speed is twice. The momentum's value is then increased by two.

More about the momentum link is given below.

An air-filled capacitor consists of two parallel plates, each with an area of 7.60 cm2, separated by a distance of 1.70 mm. A 21

Inga [223]

Answer:

12353 V m⁻¹ = 12.4 kV m⁻¹

Explanation:

Electric field between the plates of the parallel plate capacitor depends on the potential difference across the plates and their distance of separation.Potential difference across the plates V over the distance between the plates gives the electric field between the plates. Potential difference is the amount of work done per unit charge and is given here as 21 V. Electric field is the voltage over distance.

E = V ÷ d = 21 ÷ 0.0017 = 12353 V m⁻¹

Charge is placed on two conducting spheres that are very far apart and connected by a long thin wire. The radius of the smaller

mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

surface charge density on each sphere is $440 \times 10^{-9}$ C

Explanation:

given data

radius of smaller sphere = 5 cm

radius of larger sphere is 12 cm

electric field at surface of larger sphere = 660 kV/m = 660 × 1000 v/m

solution

we apply here electric field formula that is express as

E = $(\frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon })\times (\frac{Q_{1} }{R^{2} } )$ .................1

put here value

660000 = $9 \times 10^9 \times \frac{Q1}{0.12^2}$

Q1 = 1056 × $10^{-9}$

and

here field inside a conductor is zero so that electric potential ( V ) is constant

$\frac{Q{1} }{R} = \frac{Q{2} }{r}$ ..................2

so Q2 will be

Q2 = $\frac{5}{12} \times 1056 \times 10^{-9}$

Q2 = $440 \times 10^{-9}$ C

xConsider the following reduction potentials: Cu2+ + 2e– Cu E° = 0.339 V Pb2+ + 2e– Pb E° = –0.130 V For a galvanic cell employi

slega [8]

Answer:

Approximately $\rm 90\; kJ$ .

Explanation:

Cathode is where reduction takes place and anode is where oxidation takes place. The potential of a electrochemical reaction ( $E^{\circ}(\text{cell})$ ) is equal to

$E^{\circ}(\text{cell}) = E^{\circ}(\text{cathode}) - E^{\circ}(\text{anode})$ .

There are two half-reactions in this question. $\rm Cu^{2+} + 2\,e^{-} \rightleftharpoons Cu$ and $\rm Pb^{2+} + 2\,e^{-} \rightleftharpoons Pb$ . Either could be the cathode (while the other acts as the anode.) However, for the reaction to be spontaneous, the value of $E^{\circ}(\text{cell})$ should be positive.

In this case, $E^{\circ}(\text{cell})$ is positive only if $\rm Cu^{2+} + 2\,e^{-} \rightleftharpoons Cu$ is the reaction takes place at the cathode. The net reaction would be

$\rm Cu^{2+} + Pb \to Cu + Pb^{2+}$ .

Its cell potential would be equal to $0.339 - (-0.130) = \rm 0.469\; V$ .

The maximum amount of electrical energy possible (under standard conditions) is equal to the free energy of this reaction:

$\Delta G^{\circ} = n \cdot F \cdot E^{\circ} (\text{cell})$ ,

where

$n$ is the number moles of electrons transferred for each mole of the reaction. In this case the value of $n$ is $2$ as in the half-reactions.
$F$ is Faraday's Constant (approximately $96485.33212\; \rm C \cdot mol^{-1}$ .)

$\begin{aligned}\Delta G^{\circ} &= n \cdot F \cdot E^{\circ} (\text{cell})\cr &= 2\times 96485.33212 \times (0.339 - (-0.130)) \cr &\approx 9.0 \times 10^{4} \; \rm J \cr &= 90\; \rm kJ\end{aligned}$ .

Please Help!!

kotegsom [21]

Answer:

Potential energy of spring = 24 Joules.

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Spring constant = 85N/m

Extension, e = 0.75m

Mass = 25kg

To find the potential energy of a spring

Potential energy of a spring is given by the formula;

P.E = ½ke²

Substituting into the equation, we have

P.E = ½*85*0.75²

P.E = 42.5 * 0.5625

P.E = 23.91 ≈ 24 Joules

P.E = 24 Joules
