The answer is because we use different measurements than any other country (assuming you live int he U.S) so you would become easlily confused

In nuclear fission, a nucleus splits roughly in half. (a) What is the potential 2.00 × 10−14 m from a fragment that has 46 proto

Valentin [98]

Answer:

electric potential is 3.31 × $10^{6}$ V

potential energy is 152 MeV

Explanation:

given data

fragment charge Q = 46 protons = 46 × 1.6 × $10^{-19}$ C

to find out

electric potential and potential energy

solution

we know here distance from fragment d = 2 × $10^{-14}$ m

and constant for electric force k that is 9 × $10^{9}$ N-m²/C²

so that we can find electric potential = kQ/d

electric potential = 9 × $10^{9}[/tex ×46 × 1.6 × [tex]10^{-19}$ / ( 2 × $10^{-14}$ )

electric potential = 3.31 × $10^{6}$ V

and

we know relation between electric potential and potential

that is V = U/q

so U will be = qV

now put all value

we get potential energy U

potential energy = 46 × 3.31 × $10^{6}$

potential energy = 1.52 × $10^{8}$ eV

so potential energy = 152 MeV

A 2000 kg car moving at 100 km/h crosses the top of a hill with a radius of curvature of 100 m. What is the normal force exerted

Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

The normal force the seat exerted on the driver is 125 N.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the car, m = 2000 kg

speed of the car, u = 100 km/h = 27.78 m/s

radius of curvature of the hill, r = 100 m

mass of the driver, = 60 kg

The centripetal force of the driver at top of the hill is given as;

$F_c = F_g - F_N$

where;

Fc is the centripetal force

$F_g$ is downward force due to weight of the driver

$F_N$ is upward or normal force on the drive

$F_N = F_g-F_c\\\\F_N = mg - \frac{mv^2}{r} \\\\F_N = (60 \times 9.8) -\frac{60 \ \times \ 27.78^2 \ }{100} \\\\F_N = 588 \ N - 463 \ N\\\\F_N = 125 \ N$

Therefore, the normal force the seat exerted on the driver is 125 N.

Through what potential difference should electrons be accelerated so that their speed is 1.0 % of the speed of light when they h

omeli [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Considering non - relativistic approach : ----

Speed of electron = 1 % of speed of light

= .01 x 3 x 10⁸ m /s

= 3 x 10⁶ m /s

Kinetic energy of electron = 1/2 m v²

= .5 x 9.1 x 10⁻³¹ x ( 3 x 10⁶ )²

= 40.95 x 10⁻¹⁹ J

Kinetic energy in electron comes from lose of electrical energy equal to

Ve where V is potential difference under which electron is accelerated and e is electronic charge .

V x e = kinetic energy of electron

V x 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ = 40.95 x 10⁻¹⁹

V = 25.6 Volt .
