<h2>Answer:</h2>

(a) 3.96 x 10⁵C

(b) 4.752 x 10⁶ J

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

(a) The given charge (Q) is 110 A·h (ampere hour)

Converting this to A·s (ampere second) gives the number of coulombs the charge represents. This is done as follows;

=> Q = 110A·h

=> Q = 110 x 1A x 1h          [1 hour = 3600 seconds]

=> Q = 110 x A x 3600s

=> Q = 396000A·s

=> Q = 3.96 x 10⁵A·s = 3.96 x 10⁵C

Therefore, the number of coulombs of charge is 3.96 x 10⁵C

(b) The energy (E) involved in the process is given by;

E = Q x V           -----------------(i)

Where;

Q = magnitude of the charge = 3.96 x 10⁵C

V = electric potential = 12V

Substitute these values into equation (i) as follows;

E = 3.96 x 10⁵ x 12

E = 47.52 x 10⁵ J

E = 4.752 x 10⁶ J

Therefore, the amount of energy involved is 4.752 x 10⁶ J

What is the magnitude of the electric force between a proton and an electron when they are at a distance of 4.09 angstrom from e
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

F=1.38*10^{-9}N

Explanation:

According to Coulomb's law, the magnitude of the electric force between two point charges is directly proportional to the product of the magnitude of both charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance that separates them:

F=\frac{kq_1q_2}{d^2}

Here k is the Coulomb constant. In this case, we have q_1=-e, q_2=e and d=4.09*10^-10m. Replacing the values:

F=\frac{8.99*10^{9}\frac{N\cdot m^2}{C^2}(-1.6*10^{-19}C)(1.6*10^{-19}C)}{(4.09*10^{-10})^2}\\F=-1.38*10^{-9}N

The negative sign indicates that it is an attractive force. So, the magnitude of the electric force is:

F=1.38*10^{-9}N

What is the acceleration of the the object during the first 4 seconds?
AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

Velocity (m/s) over time (s) graph

Velocity (m/s) over time (s) graph

We could write out our average acceleration as:

a = Δv/ Δta=Δv/Δta, equals, Δ, v, slash, Δ, t

a = (15 m/s - 0 m/s) / 0.2 seconds

a = 15 m/s / 0.2 seconds

a = 75 m/s / second

Explanation:

What this formula is telling us is that if we know the acceleration of an object, and the ... we can plug in our acceleration of 12.5 m/s2 for a, and 4 seconds for t.

Velocity (m/s) over time (s) graph

We could write out our average acceleration as:

a = Δv/ Δta=Δv/Δta, equals, Δ, v, slash, Δ, t

a = (15 m/s - 0 m/s) / 0.2 seconds

a = 15 m/s / 0.2 seconds

a = 75 m/s / second
