A proton and an electron are released from rest, with only the electrostatic force acting. Which of the following statements mus
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

their electrical potential energy decreases. True, because of the negative sign as the distance decreases, it becomes more negative.

The kinetic energy increases. True, the force is attractive as the distance decreases the force increases, so acceleration and therefore the speed

Explanation:

The only force between the proton and the electron is electric

      Fe = k q1q2 / r2

      Fe = - k e2 / r2

We can see that it is an attractive force (negative sign)

The electric power energy is

       U = k q1 q2 / r

       U = -k e2 / r

 

The kinetic energy is

       K = ½ m v2

With the expressions for each term we can analyze the sentences :

Their electric potential energy increases. False,

their electrical potential energy decreases. True, because of the negative sign as the distance decreases, it becomes more negative.

The kinetic energy increases. True, the force is attractive as the distance decreases the force increases, so acceleration and therefore the speed

Kinetic energy decreases False

The acceleration decreases.  False, as the force increases so does the acceleration

Two automobiles traveling at right angles to each other collide and stick together. Car A has a mass of 1200 kg and had a speed
sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer:

v_{B0}=15.73 m/s

Explanation:

We can use the conservation of momentum. The initial momentum is equal to the final momentum:

x-coordinate

p_{0x}=p_{fx}

m_{A}v_{A0}=(m_{A}+m_{B})v_{cx}  

m_{A}v_{A0}=(m_{A}+m_{B})v_{c}cos(40) (1)

y-coordinate

p_{0y}=p_{fy}

m_{B}v_{B0}=(m_{A}+m_{B})v_{cy}  

m_{B}v_{B0}=(m_{A}+m_{B})v_{c}sin(40) (2)

We can divide equations (2) and (1):

\frac{m_{B}v_{B0}}{m_{A}v_{A0}}=\frac{sin(40)}{cos(40)}

\frac{m_{B}v_{B0}}{m_{A}v_{A0}}=tan(40)

v_{B0}=\frac{m_{A}v_{A0}}{m_{B}}*tan(40)

v_{B0}=\frac{1200*25}{1600}*tan(40)

v_{B0}=15.73 m/s

I hope it helps you!

A ray of light incident in water strikes the surface separating water from air making an angle of 10 ° with the normal to the su
labwork [276]

Answer:

a

 \theta _2  = 13^o

b

 \theta _1  =32.94^o

c

 \theta_c  =  53.05^o    

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The angle of incidence is  \theta_1 =  10^o

    The refractive index of water is  n_1 = 1.3

  Generally Snell's law is mathematically represented as

          n_1 sin(\theta_1) =  n_2 sin(\theta_ 2)

Here n_2 is the refractive index of air with value  n_2 =  1

         \theta_2  is the angle of refraction

So  

        \theta _2  =  sin^{-1}[\frac{n_1 * sin(\theta _1)}{n_2} ]

=>     \theta _2  =  sin^{-1}[\frac{1.3 * sin(10)}{1} ]

=>     \theta _2  = 13^o

Given that the angle should not be greater than \theta _2 =45^o  then the angle of incidence will be

       \theta _1  =  sin^{-1}[\frac{n_2 * sin(\theta _2)}{n_1} ]

=>     \theta _1  =  sin^{-1}[\frac{1 * sin(45)}{1.3} ]

=>     \theta _1  =32.94^o

Generally for critical angle is mathematically represented as

        \theta_c  =  sin^{-1}[\frac{n_2}{n_1} ]

=>     \theta_c  =  sin^{-1}[\frac{1}{1.3} ]  

=>     \theta_c  =  53.05^o
