At surface,
v = kq/r

And potential energy of an electron is given by,
PE = -ev = -ekq/r

At escape velocity,
PE + KE = 0.
Therefore,
1/2mv^2 - ekq/r =0
1/2mv^2 = ekq/r
v = Sqrt [2ekq/mr], where v = escape velocity, e = 1.6*10^-19 C, k = 8.99*10^9 Nm^2/C^2, m = 9.11*10^-31 kg, r = 1.1*10^-2 m, q = 8*10^-9 C

Substituting;
v = Sqrt [(2*1.6*19^-19*8.99*10^9*8*10^-9)/(9.11*10^-31*1.1*10^-2)] = 47949357.23 m/s ≈ 4.795 *10^7 m/s

saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

21.28 m

Explanation:

height, h = 71 m

velocity of raft, v = 5.6 m/s

let the time taken by the stone to reach to raft is t.

use second equation of motion for stone

h = ut + \frac{1}{2}at^{2}

u = 0 m/s, h = 71 m, g = 9.8 m/s^2

71 = 0 + 0.5 x 9.8 x t^2

t = 3.8 s

Horizontal distance traveled by the raft in time t

d = v x t = 5.6 x 3.8 = 21.28 m

pentagon [3]

Answer:

240m/s

Explanation:

The equation to calculate is wavelength= velocity/ frequency so to find the velocity you would have to multiply frequency by wavelength.

An airplane traveling at half the speed of sound emits a sound of frequency 5.84 kHz. (a) At what frequency does a stationary li
sergejj [24]

Answer:

Stationary listener frequency = 77.68 kHz

Explanation:

Given:

Speed of airplane = 344/2 = 172 m/s

Sound of frequency = 5.84 kHz

Computation:

f0 = fs[(v+v0)/(v-vs)]

f0 = 5.84[(344+0)/(344-172)]

f0 = 5.84[(344)/172]

Stationary listener frequency = 77.68 kHz
