Answer:

This does not violate the conservation of energy.

Explanation:

This does not violate the conservation of energy because the hot body gives energy in the form of heat to the colder body, this second absorbs energy. This will be the case until both bodies reach the same temperature, reaching thermal equilibrium and reducing the transfer of thermal energy. In this way the energy was only transferred from one body to another but the total energy of the system (body 1 plus body 2) will be the same as in the beginning, respecting the principle of conservation of energy or also called the first principle of thermodynamics .

The part of physics that studies these processes is in turn called heat transfer or heat transfer or thermal transfer. Heat transfer occurs whenever there is a thermal gradient or when two systems with different temperatures come into contact. The process persists until thermal equilibrium is reached, that is, until temperatures are equalized. When there is a temperature difference between two objects or regions close enough, the heat transfer cannot be stopped, it can only be slowed down.

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

A particle moves along a straight path through a displacement d = 2.5i + cj while a force F = 8.5i + -8.5j acts on it. The displ
Zanzabum

Answer:

Explanation:

Work is defined as the scalar product of force and distance

W=F•d

Given that

F = 8.5i + -8.5j. +×-=-

F=8.5i-8.5j

d = 2.5i + cj

If the work in the practice is zero, then W=0

therefore,

W=F•ds

0=F•ds

0=(8.5i -8.5j)•(2.5i + cj)

Note that

i.i=j.j=k.k=1

i.j=j.i=k.i=i.k=j.k=k.j=0

So applying this

0=(8.5i -8.5j)•(2.5i + cj)

0= (8.5×2.5i.i + 8.5×ci.j -8.5×2.5j.i-8.5×cj.j)

0=21.25-8.5c

Therefore,

8.5c=21.25

c=21.25/8.5

c=2.5
