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

Blababa [14]

Answer:

<u>Please Mark As Brainliest!!</u>

a) 4.99 rad/sec b) 6.24 rad/sec c) 7.03 J

Explanation:

a)  If the student completes one turn in 1.26 sec, this is called the period of the movement.

If we take into account that the angle rotated during one turn is 2π rads, by definition of angular velocity, we can get this value as follows:

ω = Δθ / Δt = 2*π rad / 1.26 seg = 4.99 rad/sec.

b) As no external torques are acting on the system, the total angular momentum must be conserved, so we can write the following equation:

Li = Lf   ⇒  I₁ * ω₁  = I₂* ω₂

So, we can solve for ω₂, as follows:

ω₂ = (I₁ * ω₁) / I₂ = 6.24 rad/sec

c) Appying the work-energy theorem, we know that the work done by the student, must be equal to the change in the kinetic energy, which in this case is only rotational, so we can write:

W = 1/2 I₂* ω₂² - 1/2 I₁ ω₁²

W =1/2 ((2.25 kg.m² * (6.24)²) (rad/sec)² - (1.8 kg.m²* (4.99)²) (rad/sec)²)  

W = 7.03 J

How do we work out the world time zone differences​
Virty [35]
To find the time zone in hours of a particular location, you can take the longitude -- in degrees -- and divide it by 15. So, for example, 75° E would be 75/15 which equals 5. That translates to the time zone being 5 hours ahead of UTC or GMT time, which can also be labeled as UTC+5. i hope this helped if not then sorry

A speed boat increases its speed uniformly from vi = 20.0 m/s to vf = 30.0 m/s in a distance of 2.00 x 10^2m. (a) Draw a coordin
pychu [463]

a) See graph in attachment

b) The suvat equation to use is v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2as

c) The acceleration is a=\frac{v_f^2-v_i^2}{2s}

d) The acceleration is 1.25 m/s^2

e) The time needed is 8 s

Explanation:

a)

For this part, find in attachment the diagram representing this situation.

Since we are not given any particular direction for the motion, we choose the x-direction as the direction of motion of the boat.

Then we have the following:

- The initial position of the boat is x_i = 0, the origin

- The  final position of the boat is x_f = 200 m

- The initial velocity of the boat is v_i = 20.0 m/s

- The final velocity of the boat is v_f = 30.0 m/s

Note that the arrow representing the final velocity is longer than that of the initial velocity, since the final velocity is larger.

b)

The motion of the speed boat is a uniformly accelerated motion (motion at constant acceleration), therefore we can use one of the suvat equations. In this particular problem, we know the following quantities:

v_i = 20.0 m/s, the initial velocity

v_f = 30.0 m/s, the final velocity

s = x_f - x_i = 200 m, the  displacement of the boat

Therefore, the equation that best can be use to find the acceleration is

v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2as

where

a is the acceleration

c)

Now we have to solve the equation

v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2as

In order to find the acceleration.

This can be done by dividing both terms by 2s: this way, we find

\frac{v_f^2-v_i^2}{2s}=\frac{2as}{2s}

And so the acceleration is

a=\frac{v_f^2-v_i^2}{2s}

d)

Now we can use the equation found in part c) in order to find the acceleration.

We have the following data:

v_i = 20.0 m/s, the initial velocity

v_f = 30.0 m/s, the final velocity

s = x_f - x_i = 200 m, the  displacement of the boat

And substituting into the equation,

a=\frac{30^2-20^2}{2(200)}=1.25 m/s^2

e)

In order to find the time it takes the boat to travel the given distance, we can use the following suvat equation:

v_f = v_i + at

where:

v_i is the initial velocity

v_f is the final velocity

a is the acceleration

t is the time

Here we have:

v_i = 20.0 m/s

v_f = 30.0 m/s

a=1.25 m/s^2

Solving for t, we find:

t=\frac{v_f-v_i}{a}=\frac{30-20}{1.25}=8 s

If the object represented by the FBD below has a mass of 2.5 kg, what is the acceleration of the object?
Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

4 m/s² down

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the net force acting on the object.

The net force acting on the object from the left and right side is zero because the same force is applied on both sides.

Next, we shall determine the net force acting on the object from the up and down side. This can be obtained as follow:

Force up (Fᵤ) = 15 N

Force down (Fₔ) = 25 N

Net force (Fₙ) =?

Fₙ = Fₔ – Fᵤ

Fₙ = 25 – 15

Fₙ = 10 N down

Finally, we shall determine the acceleration of the object. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass (ml= 2.5 Kg

Net force (Fₙ) = 10 N down

Acceleration (a) =?

Fₙ = ma

10 = 2.5 × a

Divide both side by 2.5

a = 10 / 2.5

a = 4 m/s² down

Therefore, the acceleration of the object is 4 m/s² down
