Answer:
Explanation:
As per mechanical energy conservation we can say that here since friction is present in the barrel so we will have
Work done by friction force = Loss in mechanical energy
so we will have
here we know that
Initial compression in the spring is given as
now from above equation
Answer:
Explanation:
For this exercise we must use the principle of conservation of energy
starting point. The proton very far from the nucleus
Em₀ = K = ½ m v²
final point. The point where the proton is stopped (v = 0)
Em_f = U = q V
where the potential is
V = k Ze / r²
Let us consider that all the charge of the nucleus is in the center, therefore r is the distance from this point to the proton that is approaching
Energy is conserved
Em₀ = Em_f
½ m v² = e ()
with this expression we can find the closest approach distance (r)
