Answer:

a. It starts at point B.

vp = 2.53*10⁴ m/s

a. it starts at point A.

ve= 1.08*10⁶ m/s

Explanation:

a)  As the proton is a positive charge, when released from rest, it will be accelerated due to the potential difference, from the higher potential to the lower one, so it is at the point B when released.

Once released, as the total energy must be conserved, the increase in kinetic energy must be equal (in magnitude) to the change in the electric potential energy, as follows:

ΔK + ΔUe = 0 ⇒ ΔK = -ΔUe =- (e*ΔV)

⇒ -( e* (VA-VB) ) = \frac{1}{2}*mp*v^{2}

where e= elementary charge= 1.6*10⁻¹⁹ C,  VA = 1.83 V, VB= 5.17V, and mp= mass of proton = 1.67*10⁻²⁷ kg.

Replacing by these values, and solving for v, we have:

v = \sqrt{\frac{2*1.6e-19C*3.34 V}{1.67e-27kg} } = 2.53e4 m/s

⇒ vp = 2.53*10⁴ m/s

b) If, instead of a proton, the charge realeased from rest, had been an electron, a few things would change:

First, as the electrons carry negative charges, they move from the lower potentials to the higher ones, which means that it would have started at point A.

Second, as its charge is (-e) the change in electric potential energy had been negative also:

ΔUe = -e*ΔV = -e* (VB-VA)

In order to find the speed of the electron when it is just passing point B, we can apply the conservation of energy principle as for the proton, as follows:

-( (-e)* (VB-VA) ) = \frac{1}{2}*me*v^{2}

where e= elementary charge= 1.6*10⁻¹⁹ C,  VA = 1.83 V, VB= 5.17V, and me= mass of electron = 9.1*10⁻³¹ kg.

Replacing by these values, and solving for v, we have:

v = \sqrt{\frac{2*1.6e-19C*3.34 V}{9.1e-31kg} } = 1.08e6 m/s

⇒ ve = 1.08*10⁶ m/s

A 125 g pendulum bob hung on a string of length 35 cm has the same period as when the bob is hung from a spring and caused to os
Bingel [31]

Answer:

k = 3.5 N/m

Explanation:

It is given that the time period the bob in pendulum is the same as its time period in spring mass system:

Time\ Period\ of\ Pendulum = Time\ Period\ of\ Spring-Mass\ System\\2\pi \sqrt{\frac{l}{g}} = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k}

\frac{l}{g} = \frac{m}{k}\\\\ k = g\frac{m}{l}

where,

k = spring constant = ?

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

m = mass of bob = 125 g = 0.125 kg

l = length of pendulum = 35 cm = 0.35 m

Therefore,

k = (9.81\ m/s^2)(\frac{0.125\ kg}{0.35\ m})\\\\

<u>k = 3.5 N/m</u>

just olya [345]
<span>I would say greater than because as you do deeper, the pressure strengthens. If you were in a 10 ft deep pool and you dive all the way to the bottom, the ears usually pop. That's because of the pressure. Whereas if you were to go five feet, your ears wouldn't. It depends on the age of the person. Hope this helps.</span>

A descending elevator of mass 1,000 kg is uniformly decelerated to rest over a distance of 8 m by a cable in which the tension i
Stolb23 [73]

The speed  V_{i} of the elevator at the beginning of the 8 m descent is nearly 4 m/s. Hence, option A is the correct answer.

We are given that-

the mass of the elevator (m) = 1000 kg ;

the distance the elevator decelerated to be y = 8m ;

the tension is T = 11000 N;

let us determine the acceleration 'a' by using Newton's second law of motion.

∑Fy = ma

W - T = ma

(1000kg x 9.8 m/s² ) - 11000N = 1000 kg x a

9800 - 11000 = 1000

a = - 1.2 m/s²

Using the equation of kinematics to determine the initial velocity.

V_{f} ² = V_{i}² + 2ay

V_{i} = √ ( 2 x 1.2m/s² x 8 m )

V_{i} = √19.2 m²/s²

V_{i} = 4.38 m/s   ≈ 4 m/s

Hence, the initial velocity of the elevator is 4m/s.

Based on what you have just read, what are the advantages of storing music digitally compared to using an analog system?
melamori03 [73]

Storing music digitally requires less storage room than analog records or tapes. Digital music is easier to copy and the copies are the same as the original. The quality of the signal does not degrade over long periods of time.
