If a proton and an electron are released when they are 2.50×10^-10m apart (typical atomic distances), find the initial accelerat

katrin [286]

To solve this exercise, we will first proceed to calculate the electric force given by the charge between the proton and the electron (it). From the Force we will use Newton's second law that will allow us to find the acceleration of objects. The Coulomb force between two charges is given as

$F = k \frac{q_1q_2}{r^2}$

Here,

k = Coulomb's constant

q = Charge of proton and electron

r = Distance

Replacing we have that,

$F = (9*10^9)(\frac{(1.602*10^{-19})^2}{2.5*10^{-10}})$

$F = 3.6956*10^{-9}N$

The force between the electron and proton is calculated. From Newton's third law the force exerted by the electron on proton is same as the force exerted by the proton on electron.

The acceleration of the electron is given as

$a_e = \frac{F}{m_e}$

$a_e = \frac{3.6956*10^{-9}}{9.11*10^{-31}}$

$a_e = 4.0566*10^{21}m/s^2$

The acceleration of the proton is given as,

$a_p = \frac{F}{m_p}$

$a_p = \frac{3.6956*10^{-9}}{1.672*10^{-27}}$

$a_p = 2.21*10^{18}m/s^2$

Objects in space are moving at a constant velocity in a straight line.

tigry1 [53]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

An object in motion will stay in motion unless acted on by a net positive or negative force.

For answer A. If the object were to be in an orbit, it would inevitably accelerate due to it being acted on by the gravitational force from the object it is orbiting. At different points in the orbit, the object will move at different speeds and continuously transfer between kinetic and potential energy.

For answer B. The object would would not stop their motion. In order for the object to lose energy, it would have to transfer it through friction or through its interaction with a gravitational field.

For answer D. No energy is "required" to maintain constant motion unless the object is willingly fighting against a resistive force like friction or a graviational well.

A sled is pulled at a constant velocity across a horizontal snow surface. If a force of 100 N is being applied to the sled rope

tangare [24]

Answer:

60.18 N

Explanation:

Given that:

The force applied on the sled = 100 N

Suppose, the angle between the sled rope and the ground = 53°

The horizontal force which acts in the horizontal direction can be expressed as:

$F_x = F \ cos \theta$
