A 4.15-volt battery is connected across a parallel-plate capacitor. Illuminating the plates with ultraviolet light causes electr

ons to be emitted from the plates with a speed of 1.76 × 106 m/s. (a) Suppose electrons are emitted near the center of the negative plate and travel perpendicular to that plate toward the opposite plate. Find the speed of the electrons when they reach the positive plate. (b) Suppose instead that electrons are emitted perpendicular to the positive plate. Find their speed when they reach the negative plate.

Answer:

a ) 2.13 X 10⁶ m/s .

b ) 1.28 X 10⁶ m/s

Explanation:

When electrons are repelled by negative plates and attracted by positive plates , it will increase their kinetic energy.

Increase in their energy = 4.15 eV

= 4.5 X 1.6 X 10⁻¹⁹ J

= 6.64 x 10⁻¹⁹ J

Initial kinetic energy

= 1/2 mv²

= 1/2 x 9.1 x 10⁻³¹ x ( 1.76 x 10⁶)²

= 14.09 X 10⁻¹⁹ J

Total energy

= 6.64 x 10⁻¹⁹+14.09 X 10⁻¹⁹

= 20.73 x 10⁻¹⁹

If V be the increased velocity

1/2 m V² = 20.73 X 10⁻¹⁹

.5 X 9.1 X 10⁻³¹ V² = 20.73 X 10⁻¹⁹

V = 2.13 X 10⁶ m/s .

b ) When electrons are released from positive plate , their speed are reduced because of attraction between electrons and positively charge plates.

Initial kinetic energy

= 14.09 x 10⁻¹⁹ J (see above )

reduction in kinetic energy  

= 6.64 x 10⁻¹⁹ J ( See above )

Total energy with electron -

= 14.09 x 10⁻¹⁹  - 6.64 x 10⁻¹⁹

= 7. 45 x 10⁻¹⁹ J .

If V be the energy of electrons reaching the negative plate,

1/2 m V² =7. 45 x 10⁻¹⁹

V = 1.28 X 10⁶ ms⁻¹

yanalaym [24]

Answer:

5,000J

Explanation:

Work = Force x Distance

Distance back and forth is canceled out, so either the answer is + or -

5.0m + 5.0m = 10.0m

500N x 10.0m = 5,000J

What’s The Answer, To The Question In The Photo
Sedbober [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is the third option: The kinetic energy of the water molecules decreases.

Explanation:

Temperature is, in depth, a statistical value; kind of an average of the particles movement in any physical system (such as a glass filled with water). Kinetic energy, for sure, is the energy resulting from movement (technically depending on mass and velocity of a system; in other words, the faster something moves, the greater its kinetic energy.

Since temperature is related to the total average random movement in a system, and so is the kinetic energy (related to movement through velocity), as the thermometer measures <u>less temperature</u>, that would mean that the particles (in this case: water particles) are <u>moving slowly</u>, so that: the slower something moves, the lower its kinetic energy.

<u>In summary:</u> temperature tells about how fast are moving and colliding the particles within a system, and since it is <em>directly proportional</em> to the amount of movement, it can be related (also <em>directly proportional</em>) to the kinectic energy.

To have momentum, an object must be ______. A. heavy B. massive C. moving D. accelerating
Amiraneli [1.4K]
Momentum of the object can be calculated by multiplying the mass of the object and the velocity of the moving object. In this case, the starting situation should be the object should be moving, else there is no velocity and thus momentum is equal to zero .Answer is C
