The change in electrical potential energy of the electron is given by:
\Delta U = e \Delta V
where
e is the electron charge
\Delta V is the potential difference between the initial and final point of the electron.

The electron moves by a distance d=4.5 m in the electric field of intensity E=325 N/C, so the potential difference between the initial and final location of the electron is
\Delta V= -E d= -(325 N/C)(4.5 m)=-1462.5 V
where the negative sign is due to the fact that the electron is moving in the direction of the electric field, so it is moving from a point at higher potential to a point of lower potential, so the \Delta V must be negative.

Therefore, the change in electrical potential energy of the electron is
\Delta U= e \Delta V=(-1.6 \cdot 10^{-19} C)(-1462.5 V)=2.34 \cdot 10^{-16} J

If ?h°rxn and ?s°rxn are both negative values, what drives the spontaneous reaction and in what direction at standard conditions
irakobra [83]

The release of free energy drives the spontaneous reaction.

Spontaneity can be <span>determined using the change in </span>Gibbs free energy (the thermodynamic potencial):

delta G=delta H – T*delta S

where delta H is the enthalpy and delta S is the entropy.

The direction (the sign) of delta G depends of the changes of enthalpy and entropy. If delta G is negative then the process is spontaneous.

In our case, both delta H and delta S are negative values, the process as said is spontaneous which means that it may proceed in the forward direction.

When the saw slices wood, the wood exerts a 104-N force on the blade, 0.128 m from the blade’s axis of rotation. If that force i
Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

Explanation:

When saw slices wood by exerting a force on the wood , wood also exerts a reaction force on the saw in opposite direction which is equal to the force of action that is 104 N.

So torque exerted by wood on the blade

= force x perpendicular distance from the axis of rotation

= 104 x .128

=13.312 Nm.

Since this torque opposes the movement of blade , it turns the blade slower.
