Protons are released from rest in a Van de Graaff accelerator. They start from a region where the potential is 7.15 MV then trav

el through a vacuum region to a region where the potential is zero. Find the speed of the protons when they reach the zero potential region. (proton mass -1.66 x 1027 kg) A) 1.40 x 10 m/s B) 9.68 x 1014m/s C) 3.70x 10' m/s D) 2.62 x 10 m/s

Answer:

3.7 x 10⁷ m/s

Explanation:

ΔV = Potential difference through which the proton moves = 7.15 MV = 7.15 x 10⁶ Volts

q = magnitude of charge on the proton = 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C

v = speed of the proton as it reach zero potential region

m = mass of the proton = 1.66 x 10⁻²⁷ kg

Using conservation of energy

Kinetic energy gained by proton = Electric potential energy lost

(0.5) m v² = q ΔV

(0.5) (1.66 x 10⁻²⁷) v² = (1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹) (7.15 x 10⁶)

v = 3.7 x 10⁷ m/s

The graph below shows the energy sources used to generate electricity in the United States.
DedPeter [7]

The correct answer is - D. 1 percent.

The United States are the biggest consumer of electricity in the world. Because of that the United States are using multiple different sources in order to satisfy the demand for the electricity. The solar energy though accounts for only 1% of the total amount of produced electricity in the country and that is concerning. The biggest concern of course is the environmental one as the majority of the electricity is produced by sources that are polluting the environment. The other concern is that the United States are not using their potential in gaining more electricity from the solar radiation when taken in account that they have very large areas in the country that have a lot of intense solar radiation and clear skies throughout most of the year.

15.One girl was involved in a bus crash. She told the police that she was seated in the last line of seats and that when the bus
Alona [7]

Answer: It is not likely.

Explanation:

When the bus is moving forward, all the objects inside of it also are moving forward.

Now, as the objects inside the buss are not fixed to the bus, if the bus suddenly stops the objects inside of it will keep moving forward, because of the conservation of the momentum, defined as the quantity of motion (Similar to when you are in a car and it suddenly stops, you can feel the forward impulse).

Then is not likely that, in a case where the bus stops suddenly, an object inside the bus flies backward in opposite direction to the previous movement of the bus.

A harmonic wave on a string with a mass per unit length of 0.050 kg/m and a tension of 60 N has an amplitude of 5.0 cm. Each sec
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

Power of the string wave will be equal to 5.464 watt

Explanation:

We have given mass per unit length is 0.050 kg/m

Tension in the string T = 60 N

Amplitude of the wave A = 5 cm = 0.05 m

Frequency f = 8 Hz

So angular frequency \omega =2\pi f=2\times 3.14\times 8=50.24rad/sec

Velocity of the string wave is equal to v=\sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu }}=\sqrt{\frac{60}{0.050}}=34.641m/sec

Power of wave propagation is equal to P=\frac{1}{2}\mu \omega ^2vA^2=\frac{1}{2}\times 0.050\times 50.24^2\times 34.641\times 0.05^2=5.464watt

So power of the wave will be equal to 5.464 watt
