What is the energy stored between 2 Carbon nuclei that are 1.00 nm apart from each other? HINT: Carbon nuclei have 6 protons and

Andrei [34K]

Answer:

$A. 8.29\times 10^{-18}\ J$

Explanation:

Given that:

p = magnitude of charge on a proton = $1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C$

k = Boltzmann constant = $9\times 10^{9}\ Nm^2/C^2$

r = distance between the two carbon nuclei = 1.00 nm = $1.00\times 10^{-9}\ m$

Since a carbon nucleus contains 6 protons.

So, charge on a carbon nucleus is $q = 6p=6\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C=9.6\times 10^{-19}\ C$

We know that the electric potential energy between two charges q and Q separated by a distance r is given by:

$U = \dfrac{kQq}{r}$

So, the potential energy between the two nuclei of carbon is as below:

$U= \dfrac{kqq}{r}\\\Rightarrow U = \dfrac{kq^2}{r}\\\Rightarrow U = \dfrac{9\times10^9\times (9.6\times 10^{-19})^2}{1.0\times 10^{-9}}\\\Rightarrow U =8.29\times 10^{-18}\ J$

Hence, the energy stored between two nuclei of carbon is $8.29\times 10^{-18}\ J$ .

Welcome to this IE. You may navigate to any page you've seen already using the IE Outline tab on the right. A particle beam is m

Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

the magnitude of a uniform electric field that will stop these protons in a distance of 2 m is 10143.57 V/m or 1.01 × 10⁴ V/m

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

Kinetic energy of each proton that makes up the beam = 3.25 × 10⁻¹⁵ J

Mass of proton = 1.673 × 10⁻²⁷ kg

Charge of proton = 1.602 × 10⁻¹⁹ C

distance d = 2 m

we know that

Kinetic Energy = Charge of proton × Potential difference ΔV

so

Potential difference ΔV = Kinetic Energy / Charge of proton

we substitute

Potential difference ΔV = ( 3.25 × 10⁻¹⁵ ) / ( 1.602 × 10⁻¹⁹ )

Potential difference ΔV = 20287.14 V

Now, the magnitude of a uniform electric field that will stop these protons in a distance of 2 m will be;

E = Potential difference ΔV / distance d

we substitute

E = 20287.14 V / 2 m

E = 10143.57 V/m or 1.01 × 10⁴ V/m

Therefore, the magnitude of a uniform electric field that will stop these protons in a distance of 2 m is 10143.57 V/m or 1.01 × 10⁴ V/m

I push a box with mass 10 kg across a 15 m room. If I apply a force of 20N to do this how much work is being done on the box?

devlian [24]

You could use the formula

W=Fd

F(force)=20N

D(distance/displacement) =15m

W=(20N)(15m)

W= 300 J

You have a grindstone (a disk) that is 90.0 kg, has a 0.340-m radius, and is turning at 90.0 rpm, and you press a steel axe agai

QveST [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given mass of grindstone $m=90\ kg$

radius of stone $r=0.34\ m$

angular speed of disc $\omega =90\ rpm$

Steel Axle applying a force of $F=20\ N$

coefficient of kinetic friction $\mu =0.2$

Frictional Torque applied by steel is given by

$\tau=r\times f_r$

$\tau =r\times \mu F$

where $f_r$ =frictional force

$\tau =r\times \mu \times F$

$\tau =0.34\times 0.2\times 20$

$\tau =1.36\ N-m$

Torque is also given by

$\tau =I\cdot \alpha$

where $\alpha$ =angular acceleration

I=moment of Inertia

$\tau =0.5Mr^2\times \alpha$

$0.5Mr^2\times \alpha =1.36\ N-m$

$0.5\times 90\times 0.34^2\times \alpha =1.36$

$\alpha =0.261\ rad/s^2$
