Two protons are released from rest when they are 0.720 nm apart. For related problem-solving tips and strategies, you may want t
Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

a) Speed of the electrons at maximum speed = (1.384 × 10⁴) m/s

The maximum speed occurs at the point where all of the initial potential energy is converted into kinetic energy.

b) Maximum acceleration of the protons = (2.660 × 10¹⁷) m/s²

The maximum acceleration occurs at the minimum distance apart for the two protons.

Explanation:

The maximum speed occurs when all the potential energy of the protons has been converted to kinetic energy.

The potential energy between the two protons at the instant of release is given by

U = (kq₁q₂/r)

k = Coulomb' s constant = (8.988 × 10⁹) Nm²/C²

q₁ = q₂ = charge on a proton = q = (1.602 × 10⁻¹⁹) C

r = separation between the two protons = 0.72 nm = (7.2 × 10⁻¹⁰) m

U = (kq²/r) = [(8.988 × 10⁹) × (1.602 × 10⁻¹⁹)²] ÷ (7.2 × 10⁻¹⁰) = (3.204 × 10⁻¹⁹) N/m or Joules

At the maximum speeds, the two protons will not possess any potential Energy, only kinetic energy.

The sum of kinetic and potential energies is always constant for the system

(Initial Kinetic Energy) + (Initial Potential Energy) = (Kinetic Energy at maximum speed) + (Potential Energy at maximum speed)

Initial Kinetic Energy of the system = 0 J (Since both protons were intially at rest)

Initial Potential Energy = (3.204 × 10⁻¹⁹) J

Kinetic Energy at maximum speed = Sum of the kinetic energies of the protons at this point = (½mv²) + (½mv²) = (mv²) J (Since theu are both protons, they have the same mass and the same speed at maximum speed)

Potential Energy at maximum speed = 0 J

0 + (3.204 × 10⁻¹⁹) = mv² + 0

mv² = (3.204 × 10⁻¹⁹)

m = mass of a proton = (1.673 × 10⁻²⁷) kg

v = speed of each of the protons at maximum speed = ?

v = √[(3.204 × 10⁻¹⁹) ÷ m]

v = √[(3.204 × 10⁻¹⁹) ÷ (1.673 × 10⁻²⁷)]

v = √(1.915 × 10⁸) = 13,838.8 m/s = (1.384 × 10⁴) m/s

b) Since the two protons repel each other and force of repulsion reduces as the dI stance between the protons increases, the maximum acceleration occurs at the minimum distance apart for the two protons.

Force of repulsion acting on each proton is given through Coulomb's law as

F = (kq₁q₂/r²)

And the force acting on each proton is obtainable using Newton's law that

F = ma

So, the acceleration of each proton at any time is obtainable through a relation of these 2 formulas.

ma = (kq₁q₂/r²)

a = (kq₁q₂/r²m)

k = Coulomb' s constant = (8.988 × 10⁹) Nm²/C²

q₁ = q₂ = charge on a proton = q = (1.602 × 10⁻¹⁹) C

r = separation between the two protons = 0.72 nm = (7.2 × 10⁻¹⁰) m

m = mass of a proton = (1.673 × 10⁻²⁷) kg

a = [(8.988 × 10⁹) × (1.602 × 10⁻¹⁹)²] ÷ [(7.2 × 10⁻¹⁰)² × (1.673 × 10⁻²⁷)]

a = (2.660 × 10¹⁷) m/s²

Hope this Helps!!!

When a solid is in the process of changing into a liquid and extra energy is added to the system, the temperature does not chang
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

D. The temperature does not change during a phase change because the average kinetic energy does not change. Therefore, the potential energy in the bonds between molecules must change.

Explanation:

When there is a change of state (for example, from solid into a liquid, as in this example), when energy is added to the system, the temperature of the substance does not change.

The reason for this is that the energy supplied is no longer used to increase the average kinetic energy of the particle, but instead it is used to break the bonds between the different particles/molecules. For instance, since in this case the substance is changing from solid to liquid, all the energy supplied during the phase change is used to break the bonds between the molecules of the solid: when the process is done, all the molecules will be free to slide past each other, and the substance has turned completely into a liquid.

The bonds between molecules store potential energy: therefore, this means that the energy supplied during the phase change is not used to change the kinetic energy, but to change the potential energy in the bonds between the molecules.

Consider a heat pump that operates on the reversed Carnot cycle with R-134a as the working fluid executed under the saturation d
Schach [20]

Answer:

Work out = 28.27 kJ/kg

Explanation:

For R-134a, from the saturated tables at 800 kPa, we get

h_{fg} = 171.82 kJ/kg

Therefore, at saturation pressure 140 kPa, saturation temperature is

T_{L} = -18.77°C = 254.23 K

At saturation pressure  800 kPa, the saturation temperature is

T_{H} = 31.31°C = 304.31 K

Now heat rejected will be same as enthalpy during vaporization since heat is rejected from saturated vapour state to saturated liquid state.

Thus, q_{reject} = h_{fg} = 171.82 kJ/kg

We know COP of heat pump

COP = \frac{T_{H}}{T_{H}-T_{L}}

        = \frac{304.31}{304.31-254.23}

         = 6.076

Therefore, Work out put, W = \frac{q_{reject}}{COP}

                                              = 171.82 / 6.076

                                              = 28.27 kJ/kg

What is the threshold frequency ν0 of cesium? note that 1 ev (electron volt)=1.60×10−19 j. express your answer numerically in he
andreyandreev [35.5K]

The threshold frequency fo of Cesium is 4.83 × 10¹⁴ Hz

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

The term of package of electromagnetic wave radiation energy was first introduced by Max Planck. He termed it with photons with the magnitude is:

\large {\boxed {E = h \times f}}

<em>E = Energi of A Photon ( Joule )</em>

<em>h = Planck's Constant ( 6.63 × 10⁻³⁴ Js )</em>

<em>f = Frequency of Eletromagnetic Wave ( Hz )</em>

The photoelectric effect is an effect in which electrons are released from the metal surface when illuminated by electromagnetic waves with large enough of radiation energy.

\large {\boxed {E = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 + \Phi}}

\large {\boxed {E = qV + \Phi}}

<em>E = Energi of A Photon ( Joule )</em>

<em>m = Mass of an Electron ( kg )</em>

<em>v = Electron Release Speed ( m/s )</em>

<em>Ф = Work Function of Metal ( Joule )</em>

<em>q = Charge of an Electron ( Coulomb )</em>

<em>V = Stopping Potential ( Volt )</em>

Let us now tackle the problem!

<u>Given:</u>

Φ = 2.1 eV = 2 × 1.60 × 10⁻¹⁹ Joule = 3.20 × 10⁻¹⁹ Joule

<u>Unknown:</u>

fo = ?

<u>Solution:</u>

\Phi = h \times fo

3.20 \times 10^{-19} = 6.63 \times 10^{-34} \times fo

fo = ( 3.20 \times 10^{-19} ) \div ( 6.63 \times 10^{-34} )

\large {\boxed{fo = 4.83 \times 10^{14} ~ Hz} }
