Two protons are 1 × 10−10 m apart (about one atomic radius). Which interaction between two protons is stronger, the gravitationa

l attraction or the electric repulsion? Note that since both the gravitational and electric forces depend on the inverse square distance, this comparison holds true at all distances, not just at a distance of 1 × 10−10 m. Use the accurate values of G = 6.67 × 10−11 N·m2/kg2, proton mass of 1.67 × 10−27 kg, and electron mass of 9.11 × 10−31 kg.
a) First, calculate the electric force |Felec| = ___ N

b) Next, calculate the gravitational force |F grav| = ___ N

c) Calculate the ratio of the two forces |Felec|/|Fgrav| = ___

atroni [7]

Answer:

0.8214 m/s^2

Explanation:

Fnet= Fpushed - Ffriction

Fpushed = 12.7N      Ffriction = 8.33N

Fnet = 12.7N - 8.33N = 4.37N

Fnet= mass(acceleration)

Fnet = 4.37N    mass = 5.32 kg

4.37N = 5.32 kg(acceleration)

acceleration= 0.8214 m/s^2

What is the speed of a wave in (m/s) with a 5 meter wavelength and a period of 20 seconds?
arlik [135]

Answer: 0.25 m/s

Explanation:  Speed = wavelengt · frequency  

v = λf   and frequency is 1/period  f = 1/T

Then v = λ/T = 5 m / 20 s = 0.25 m/s

What is the moment of inertia of an object that rolls without slipping down a 3.5-m- high incline starting from rest, and has a
Daniel [21]

Answer:

I = 0.287 MR²

Explanation:

given,

height of the object = 3.5 m

initial velocity = 0 m/s

final velocity  = 7.3 m/s

moment of inertia = ?

Using total conservation of mechanical energy

change in potential energy will be equal to change in KE (rotational) and KE(transnational)

PE = KE(transnational) + KE (rotational)

mgh = \dfrac{1}{2}mv^2 + \dfrac{1}{2}I\omega^2

v = r ω

mgh = \dfrac{1}{2}mv^2 + \dfrac{1}{2}\dfrac{Iv^2}{r^2}

I = \dfrac{m(2gh - v^2)r^2}{v^2}

I = \dfrac{mr^2(2\times 9.8 \times 3.5 - 7.3^2)}{7.3^2}

I =mr^2(0.287)

I = 0.287 MR²

I NEED HELP PLEASE, THANKS! :)
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

Radio waves have a wavelength between 10^{-9}m and 10^{-12}m

While,

X rays have a wavelength between 1m and 10km.

=> It is one of the condition of diffraction that the obstacle (coming in the way) must be comparable with the size of the wavelength.

=> This shows, that radio waves have a wavelength which is comparable with the size of buildings and can really easily diffract through it

=> While, X-rays are big enough to diffract through the wall.

So, if an X-ray technician stands behind a wall during the use of her machine, she will remain safe.
