To solve this problem we will apply the principles of energy conservation. The kinetic energy in the object must be maintained and transformed into the potential electrostatic energy. Therefore mathematically
Here,
m = mass (At this case of the proton)
v = Velocity
k = Coulomb's constant
= Charge of each object
r= Distance between them
Rearranging to find the second charge we have that
Replacing,
Therefore the charge on the sphere is 3.6531nC
Answer:
2361 Newtons
Explanation:
From the second Newton's law of motion;
F = ma
In this case;
we are given;
Mass as 9.5 g
Initial speed as 0 m/s
Final velocity as 650 m/s
Distance is 0.85 m
Using the equation;
V² = U² + 2as
But u = 0
v² = 2as
Therefore;
a = v² ÷ 2s
= 650² ÷ 2(0.85)
= 248,529.40 m/s²
But;
F = ma
= 0.0095 kg × 248,529.40 m/s²
= 2361 Newtons
Therefore;
The average net force required to accelerate the bullet is 2361 Newtons.
Answer:
Almost all skin cancers (approximately 99% of non-melanoma skin cancers and 95% of melanoma) are caused by too much UV radiation from the sun or other sources such as solaria (solarium, sunbeds, and sun lamps).
Explanation:
Skin cancer develops in the cells in the epidermis – the top or outer layer of the skin. UV radiation is made up of UVA and UVB rays which are able to penetrate the skin and cause permanent damage to the cells below:
UVA penetrates deeply into the skin (the dermis) causing genetic damage to cells, photo-ageing (wrinkling, blotchiness etc) and immune-suppression.
UVB penetrates into the epidermis (top layer of the skin) causing damage to the cells. UVB is responsible for sunburn – a significant risk factor for skin cancer, especially melanoma.
If the body is unable to repair this damage the cell can begin to divide and grow in an uncontrolled way. This growth can eventually form a tumor.
UVA and UVB both contribute to sunburn, skin ageing, eye damage and melanoma and other skin cancers.
Newton's second law also helps to explain what happens every time an athlete lands during running. When the foot hits the track, it will decelerate to a stop before leaving the track again. The faster the deceleration, the greater the force of impact on the foot.
