Answer:

$9.38\times 10^7 m/s$

Explanation:

We are given that

Potential ,V=25 kV= $25\times 10^3 V$

Distance,r =1 cm= $\frac{1}{100}=0.01 m$

1 m=100 cm

Mass of electron, m= $9.1\times 10^{-31} kg$

Charge, q= $1.6\times 10^{-19} C$

We have to find the final velocity of the electron.

Speed of electron, $v=\sqrt{\frac{2qV}{m}}$

Using the formula

$v=\sqrt{\frac{2\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 25\times 10^3}{9.1\times 10^{-31}}$

v= $9.38\times 10^7 m/s$

Hence, the final velocity of the electron= $9.38\times 10^7 m/s$

Electronegativity is ____ at the top of the periodic table.

DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

Electronegativity is a chemical property at the top of the periodic table

Explanation:

electronegativity is a chemical property that measures the ability of an atom to attract a bonding pair of electrons when it is part of a compound

it's a property of atom that increases as you go to the right and up.

One example is the Pauling scale. it is a numerical scale of electronegativities. It was first developed by Linus Pauling.

it is commonly used to calculate the ability of electronegativity to attract electrons to itself.

The most common electronegative element is Flourine, having an assigned value of 4.0, ranging down to caesium and francium, having the least electronegative at 0.7

When attempting to determine the coefficient of kinetic friction, why is it necessary to move the block with constant velocity

Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

In order to measure the coefficient of friction , we apply external force to move the body . When external force comes in motion , we adjust the external force so that it moves with zero acceleration or uniform velocity . In this case external force becomes equal to kinetic frictional force and then net force becomes zero because

net force = mass x acceleration = m x 0 = 0

Now frictional force = μ mg where μ is coefficient of kinetic friction

so F = μ mg where F is external force applied

μ = F / mg

Hence , to make external force equal to frictional force , it is necessary to make acceleration of body zero .

A 4000 kg satellite is placed 2.60 x 10^6 m above the surface of the Earth.

mash [69]

a) The acceleration of gravity is $4.96 m/s^2$

b) The critical velocity is 6668 m/s (24,006 km/h)

c) The period of the orbit is 8452 s

d) The satellite completes 10.2 orbits per day

e) The escape velocity of the satellite is 9430 m/s

f) The escape velocity of the rocket is 11,191 m/s

Explanation:

The acceleration of gravity for an object near a planet is given by

$g=\frac{GM}{(R+h)^2}$

where

G is the gravitational constant

M is the mass of the planet

R is the radius of the planet

h is the height above the surface

In this problem,

$M=5.98\cdot 10^{24} kg$ (mass of the Earth)

$R=6.37\cdot 10^6 m$ (Earth's radius)

$h=2.60\cdot 10^6 m$ (altitude of the satellite)

Substituting,

$g=\frac{(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})(5.98\cdot 10^{24}}{(6.37\cdot 10^6 + 2.60\cdot 10^6)^2}=4.96 m/s^2$

The critical velocity for a satellite orbiting around a planet is given by

$v=\sqrt{\frac{GM}{R+h}}$

where we have again:

$M=5.98\cdot 10^{24} kg$ (mass of the Earth)

$R=6.37\cdot 10^6 m$ (Earth's radius)

$h=2.60\cdot 10^6 m$ (altitude of the satellite)

Substituting,

$v=\sqrt{\frac{(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})(5.98\cdot 10^{24}}{(6.37\cdot 10^6 + 2.60\cdot 10^6)}}=6668 m/s$

Converting into km/h,

$v=6668 m/s \cdot \frac{3600 s/h}{1000 m/km}=24,006 km/h$

The period of the orbit is given by the circumference of the orbit divided by the velocity:

$T=\frac{2\pi (R+h)}{v}$

where

$R=6.37\cdot 10^6 m$

$h=2.60\cdot 10^6 m$

v = 6668 m/s

Substituting,

$T=\frac{2\pi (6.37\cdot 10^6 + 2.60\cdot 10^6)}{6668}=8452 s$

One day consists of:

$t = 24 \frac{hours}{day} \cdot 60 \frac{min}{hours} \cdot 60 \frac{s}{min}=86400 s$

While the period of the orbit is

T = 8452 s

So, the number of orbits completed by the satellite in one day is

$n=\frac{t}{T}=\frac{86400}{8452}=10.2$

The escape velocity for an object in the gravitational field of a planet is given by

$v=\sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R+h}}$

where here we have:

$M=5.98\cdot 10^{24} kg$

$R=6.37\cdot 10^6 m$

$h=2.60\cdot 10^6 m$

Substituting, we find

$v=\sqrt{\frac{2(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})(5.98\cdot 10^{24}}{(6.37\cdot 10^6 + 2.60\cdot 10^6)}}=9430 m/s$

We can apply again the formula to find the escape velocity for the rocket:

$v=\sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R+h}}$

Where this time we have:

$M=5.98\cdot 10^{24} kg$

$R=6.37\cdot 10^6 m$

$h=0$ , because the rocket is located at the Earth's surface, so its altitude is zero.

And substituting,

$v=\sqrt{\frac{2(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})(5.98\cdot 10^{24}}{(6.37\cdot 10^6)}}=11,191 m/s$
