The work done by the electric field in moving a charge is the negative of the potential energy difference between the two locations, which is the product between the magnitude of the charge q and the potential difference \Delta V:
W=-\Delta U=-q\Delta V=-q (V_f -V_i)
The proton charge is q=1.6 \cdot 10^{-19}C, and the two locations have potential of V_i = +145 V and V_f=-55 V, therefore the work is
W=-(1.6 \cdot 10^{-19}C)(-55 V-(+145 V))=3.2 \cdot 10^{-17}J

If an airplane is flying at 300 km/h to the east and is facing a headwind of 18.0 km/h, what is the airplane's final velocity?
givi [52]
If an airplane is flying at 300 km/h to the east and is facing a headwind of 18.0 km/h, the final velocity can be calculated using simple vector addition. In this case, the planes velocity is positive (+330 km/h) and head wind has a negative component (-18.0 km/h). Vector addition yields +330 km / h + (-18.0 km /h) = 312 km / h.

In an experiment, an object is released from rest from the top of a building. Its speed is measured as it reaches a point that i
NikAS [45]

Answer:

so the speed will increase by 1.44 times then the initial speed if the distance is increased to double

Explanation:

As we know that the air friction or resistance due to air is neglected then we can use the equation of kinematics here

v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 a d

since we released it from rest so we have

v_i = 0

so here we have

v_f = \sqrt{2gd}

now if the distance is double then we have

v_f' = \sqrt{2g(2d)}

now from above two equations we can say that

v_f' = \sqrt2 v_f

so the speed will increase by 1.44 times then the initial speed if the distance is increased to double

Work of 5 Joules is done in stretching a spring from its natural length to 19 cm beyond its natural length. What is the force (i
densk [106]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,

5J work is done by stretching a spring

e = 19cm = 0.19m

Assuming the spring is ideal, then we can apply Hooke's law

F = kx

To calculate k, we can apply the Workdone by a spring formula

W=∫F.dx

Since F=kx

W = ∫kx dx from x = 0 to x = 0.19

W = ½kx² from x = 0 to x = 0.19

W = ½k (0.19²-0²)

5 = ½k(0.0361-0)

5×2 = 0.0361k

Then, k = 10/0.0361

k = 277.008 N/m

The spring constant is 277.008N/m

Then, applying Hooke's law to find the applied force

F = kx

F = 277.008 × 0.19

F = 52.63 N

The applied force is 52.63N
