A proton is moving at 425 m/s. (a) How much work must be done on it to stop it? (A proton has a mass of 1.67×10−27 kg.) (b) Assu

me the net braking force acting on it has magnitude 8.01×10−16 N and is directed opposite to its initial velocity. Over what distance must the force be applied? Watch your negative signs in this problem.

Answer:

a)1.51*10^-22joules b) 1.89*10^-7m

Explanation:

Work done to stop the proton = the kinetic energy of the proton = 1/2 mv^2 = 1/2* 1.67*10^-27* 425*425 = 1.51* 10 ^ -22 joules

b) net force acting to stop the proton = 8.01*10^-16

Work done needed to stop the proton = net force acting opposite the motion * distance

Distance covered = need work done/ net force

Distance = 1.51*10^-22/8.01*10^-16= 1.89*10^-7m

Your current exam mean is 97.2. if you receive a 99 on the next exam, this will have the effect of ______.
GarryVolchara [31]

If your current exam mean is 97.2. and you receive a 99 on the next exam, then this will have the effect of increasing the mean.

<h3>What is the mean?</h3>

In statistics, the mean is an average value used to calculate when taking different measurements, which can be fundamental to collecting statistically significant information.

In conclusion, if your current exam mean is 97.2. and you receive a 99 on the next exam, then this will have the effect of increasing the mean.

Sloan [31]

Answer:

r = 0m is the Minimum distance from the axis at which the block can remain in place wothout skidding.

Explanation:

From a sum of forces:

Ff = m*a   where Ff = μ * N    and a = \frac{V^2}{r}=\omega^2*r

N - m*g = 0   So, N = m*g.   Replacing everything on the original equation:

\mu*m*g = m*\omega^2*r   (eq2)

Solving for r:

r = \frac{\mu*g}{\omega^2}=1.41m

If we analyze eq2 you can conclude that as r grows, the friction has to grow (assuming that ω is constant), so the smallest distance would be 0 and the greatest 1.41m. Beyond that distance, μ has to be greater than 0.83.
