Calculate the speed (in m/s) of an electron and a proton with a kinetic energy of 1.85 electron volt (eV). (The electron and pro

ton masses are me = 9.11 ✕ 10−31 kg and mp = 1.67 ✕ 10−27 kg. Boltzmann's constant is kB = 1.38 ✕ 10−23 J/K.)

Answer:

ve = 8.06 x 10^5 m/s

vp = 1.882 x 10^4 m/s

Explanation:

K = 1.85 eV = 1.85 x 1.6 x 10^-19 J = 2.96 x 10^-19 J

me = 9.11 ✕ 10^-31 kg,

mp = 1.67 ✕ 10^-27 kg

Let the speed of electron is ve and the proton is vp.

For electron :

K = 1/2 me x ve^2

2.96 x 10^-19 = 0.5 x 9.11 x 10^-31 x ve^2

ve^2 = 6.498 x 10^11

ve = 8.06 x 10^5 m/s

For proton:

K = 1/2 mp x vp^2

2.96 x 10^-19 = 0.5 x 1.67 x 10^-27 x vp^2

vp^2 = 3.5449 x 10^8

vp = 1.882 x 10^4 m/s

Why doesn't the force of gravity change the speed of a bowling ball as it rolls along a bowling lane?
Oliga [24]
Because the gravitational force, which points downward, is perfectly balanced by the normal reaction of the floor of the bowling lane, which points upward. The two forces are equal in magnitude, so the net force acting vertically on the bowling ball is zero, therefore there is no acceleration along this direction. Moreover, since the ball is moving in the horizontal direction, the gravitational force has no component along this direction, so it does not change the velocity of the ball.

I need help!!!!!!!

One simple use of the elements of the electromagnetic spectrum that we use during our everyday lives is our daily use of microwave radiation. microwave radiation is absorbed by water molecules which heats up and cooks the food whilst killing bacteria. Another would be ultraviolet radiation which we use daily in things such as light bulbs. The sun also uses this. Lastly, we use radio waves constantly. May it be tv programs, radio, or our cell phones.

A 1500kg car double its speed from 50km/h to 100km/h. By how many times does the kinetic energy from the car's forward motion in
Rashid [163]

Answer:

Explanation:

Inital KE = (1/2) m v^2 = (1/2) * 1500 * 50^2 = 1,875,000 J  

Final KE = (1/2) * 1500 * 100^2 = 7,500,000 J  

But  ,

4 * 1875000 = 7500000

so the KE has increased by 4 times.

State Pascal's principle of transmission of pressure​
bulgar [2K]

Answer:

Pascal's law (also Pascal's principle or the principle of transmission of fluid-pressure) is a principle in fluid mechanics given by Blaise Pascal that states that a pressure change at any point in a confined incompressible fluid is transmitted throughout the fluid such that the same change occurs everywhere.
