To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to kinetic energy and energy conservation. The kinetic energy will be expressed in terms of mass and speed, as well as load and voltage. From this last expression we will find the charges by electron and by Helium nucleus.

a ) Kinetic Energy is given as

KE = \frac{1}{2} mv^2

Replacing with our values we have that

KE = \frac{1}{2} (6.64*10^{-27})(2.0\% (3.00*10^8))^2

KE = 1.1935*10^{-13}J

Therefore the kinetic energy of the helium nucleus is 1.1935*10^{-13}J

PART B) Now for calculate the electron volts we use the kinetic energy as a expression between the charge and the voltage, that is

KE = qV

Here,

q = Charge of an electron

V = Voltage

Rearranging to find the potential we have,

V = \frac{KE}{q}

V = \frac{1.19*10^{-13}}{1.6*10^{-19}}

V = 743750eV

Therefore the kinetic energy in electron vols is 743750eV

PART C) Applying the same relationship but now using the Helium core load, we will have to

KE = QV

Here,

Q = Charge of a helium nucleus

V = Voltage

Rearranging to find the potential we have

V = \frac{KE}{Q}

But we need to note that the charge is equal to the number of charge for the unit charge, then

Q = \text{No. Charge} \times \text{Unit Charge}

Q = (2)(1.6*10^{-19}C)

Q = 3.2*10^{-19}C

Now replacing we have that

V= \frac{1.19*10^{-13}}{32*10^{-19}}

V = 371875V

Therefore the voltage applied is  371875V

an empty boat floats in water with 10% of its volume submerged. and when it is loaded with 1200kg , the volume submerged will in
Lostsunrise [7]

Let volume of empty boat be = 100% = 1V

and mass of boat be M

In water 10%, 0.1V of the volume is submerged.

Mass, m of 1200kg increases the submerging from 10%, 0.1V to 70%, 0.7V

M leads to 0.1V boat submerging

boat submerging.

M + 1200kg leads to 0.7V boat submerging.

This is 60%, 0.6 V increase

By comparison

(M+1200kg) * 0.1V = 0.7V * M

0.1M + 120kg = 0.7M

120kg = 0.7M - 0.1M

120kg = 0.6M

M = (120/0.6)kg

M = 200kg.

The mass of the boat is 200kg.

Calculate the acceleration of a 270000-kg jumbo jet just before takeoff when the thrust on the aircraft is 160000 N .
Radda [10]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 0.59 m/s²</h3>

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object given it's mass and the force acting on it can be found by using the formula

a =  \frac{f}{m}  \\

f is the force

m is the mass

From the question we have

a =  \frac{160000}{270000}  =  \frac{16}{27}  \\  = 0.592592...

We have the final answer as

<h3>0.59 m/s²</h3>

Hope this helps you

An object is moving at 2.50 m/s [E]. At a time 3.00 seconds later the object is traveling at 1.50 m/s
babunello [35]

Given parameters:

First velocity  = 2.50m/s

Time of travel = 3s

Second velocity  = 1.50m/s

Unknown:

The displacement during the first interval = ?

Velocity is the displacement of a body with time. Displacement is a distance move in a specific direction by a body.

    Velocity  = \frac{Displacement}{Time taken}

So;

      Displacement  = Velocity x Time taken

Now input the parameter for the first velocity and time of travel;

      Displacement  = 2.5 x 3  = 7.5m

The displacement id 7.5m
