Answer:

Dispersion

Explanation:

<u>Dispersion is the phenomenon of the splitting of the light into its constituent colors when it passes through the prism.</u> White light is composed of seven colors which are Violet, Indigo, Blue, Green, Yellow, Orange, Red, written in the form of increasing wavelength. When the light passes through the prism it splits into these seven colors.

What is the velocity of a proton that has been accelerated by a potential difference of 15 kV? (i)\:\:\:\:\:9.5\:\times\:10^5\:m
andre [41]

Answer:

Velocity of a proton, v=1.7\times 10^6\ m/s    

Explanation:

It is given that,

Potential difference, V=15\ kV=15\times 10^3\ V

Let v is the velocity of a proton that has been accelerated by a potential difference of 15 kV.

Using the conservation of energy as :

\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2=qV

q is the charge of proton

m is the mass of proton

v=\sqrt{\dfrac{2qV}{m}}

v=\sqrt{\dfrac{2\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C\times 15\times 10^3\ V}{1.67\times 10^{-27}\ kg}

v=1695361.75\ m/s

v=1.69\times 10^6\ m/s

or

v=1.7\times 10^6\ m/s

So, the velocity of a proton is 1.7\times 10^6\ m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

What information and measurements would you need to calculate the rate of movement?
aliina [53]
When you talk about rate, you will expect that it will be in terms of a time unit. It measures how fast it is going. So, you would expect that the denominator is in time units. For the movement, you can measure this with either distance or velocity.

So, for the first variety, you would need distance and time to measure the rate of how far you go at a certain time. It is also called as velocity. For the second variety, you would need velocity and time to measure the rate of how fast you are going at a certain interval. It is also called as acceleration.
