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

Elena L [17]

The variation of water depth at spreading centers (ridges) controlled by isostasy  as convective cooling cools the rocks much more effectively the than heat conduction.

<h3>What is convective heat transfer?</h3>

When heat transfer takes place between the two fluids in direct or indirect contact.

The lithosphere cools when it moves away from the ridge axis by sea floor spreading. The cooler rocks have low density, so the sea floor gets deeper as the lithosphere gets more dense.

Thus, the convective cooling cools the rocks much more effectively the than heat conduction.
