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

Calculate the velocity of a wave that has a frequency of 60 Hz and wavelength of 2.0 m/s
mote1985 [20]

Answer:We have , a relation in frequency f and wavelength  λ of a wave having the velocity v as ,

           v=fλ ,

given f=60Hz , λ=20m ,

therefore velocity of wave , v=60×20=1200m/s

What would happen if a proton were added to the nucleus of the atom? (Check all that apply)
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

It would become a different element.

Explanation:

When you change the number of protons i.e, add a proton in the nucleus of an atom, you will change the atom from one element to a different element and also positive charge of the atom also increased by 1.

For example, adding a proton to the nucleus of an atom of hydrogen creates an atom of helium.

So, we conclude that by adding a proton the atom will change from one element to another element.

A bag is dropped from a hovering helicopter. After 42.4s, calculate the bag’s displacement.
Ann [662]

Answer:

8,809.024m

Explanation:

Displacement , y = (gt^2/2 )

g = 9.8 m/s^2

t = 42.4s

y = (9.8 (42.4*42.4)) / 2

y = 8,809.024m
