<span>The proton differs from the electron in sign although they have the same value. Like the electron, a proton will gain 215 electron-volts of eV in Kinetic energy. So 1.602Ă—10^-19 J * 215 = 344.43 * 10^(-19) J. But K. E. = mv^2 / 2, so v^2 = 2 * K.E/m. The mass of a proton is 1.673 * 10^-27 kg. So v = âš(2 * 344.43 * 10^(-19))/1.673Ă—10^-27 = 688.86 * 10^(-19)/1.673Ă—10^(-27) = 411.75 * 10^(-19-(-27)) = âš411.75 * 10^(8) = 202196.56 Also for the electron we have v^2 = 2 * K.E/m but here mass, m, = 9.109 * 10^-31 kg. So we have v = âš(2 * 344.43 * 10^(-19)) / 9.109 * 10^-31 = 688.86 * 10^(-19)/ 9.109 * 10^-31 = 75.624 * 10^(-19 - (-31)) = 75.624 * 10^(21) and v = 2.749 * 10^11</span>

Which of the following is an example of a dry lubricant? oil grease graphite petroleum
Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

Dry lubricants or solid lubricants are materials that, despite being in the solid phase, are able to reduce friction between two surfaces sliding against each other without the need for a liquid oil medium.

Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Sound waves are not able to travel in a vacuum, sound requires a medium such as air or a solid for example.  Satellites are indeed in space, but radio waves are not sound waves they are a form of light.  Light can travel in a vacuum so the messages that satellites beam back to Earth are light waves not sound waves, that is why it is possible.

Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

the Hudson Bay was covered with alpine glaciers

Explanation:

During the last glacial period, large portions of North America were covered with ice. The majority of the ice was from the ice sheets that were covering Canada and the northern part of the United States, and the alpine glaciers on the mountain ranges. Hudson Bay was all frozen at this point of time. It was not covered with alpine glaciers though, instead it was covered with the ice of the extended ice sheets, with the ice cover reaching up to 2 km in thickness.

Henrietta is going off to her physics class, jogging down the sidewalk at a speed of 2.70 m/s. Her husband Bruce suddenly realiz
Katen [24]

Answer:

The velocity is v  =  6.66 \  m/s

Henrietta is at distance s=  18.17 \  m from the under the window

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The speed of Henrietta is v=  2.70 \ m/s

The height of the window from the ground is h  =  36.5 \  m

Generally the time taken for the lunch to reach the ground assuming it fell directly under the window is

t  =  \sqrt{\frac{2 *  h }{g} }

=> t  =  \sqrt{\frac{2 *  36.5 }{9,8} }

=> t  =  2.73 \  s

Generally the time taken for the lunch to reach Henrietta is mathematically represented as

T =  t +  t_1

Here t_1 is the time duration that elapsed after Henrietta has passed below the window the value is given as 4 s

Now

T = 2.73  +  4

=> T = 6.73 \  s

Generally the distance covered by Henrietta before catching her lunch is

s=  v  *  T

=> s=  2.70  * 6.73

=> s=  18.17 \  m

Generally the speed with which Bruce threw her lunch is mathematically represented as

v  =  \frac{18.17}{2.73}

v  =  6.66 \  m/s
