By what factors does the speed of the elctron exceed that of the proton?

____ [38]

Answer:

» An electron is lighter than a proton.

explanation:

${ = \: \sf{an \: electron \: has \: formula \: \: }}{ \bf{ {}^{0}_{ - 1}e }}$

hence it's mass number is zero

${ = \: \sf{an \: electron \: is \: helium \: particle \: \: }}{ \bf{ {}^{4} _{2}He }}$

hence it's mass number is 4

Therefore, proton is heavier than electron

» An electron has a small charge magnitude than a proton.

Explanation:

An electron has charge of -1 while proton has charge of +2, therefore electron is less deflected by any energetic fields than a proton

An unstrained horizontal spring has a length of 0.31 m and a spring constant of 220 N/m. Two small charged objects are attached

Kruka [31]

The solution you should use is Hooke's law: F=-kx

It should have the same signs because they repel due to the stretch of the spring.

a. Since there is a constant energy within the spring, then Hooke's law will determine the possible algebraic signs. The solution should be
F = kx
270 N/m x 0.38 m = 102.6 N

b. Then use Coulomb's law; F=kq1q2/r^2 to find the charges produced in the force.

A tow truck is pulling 25,000 kg van with a tow hook that meets the van at an angle of 30° with the ground. How much force must

Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

86605.08 N

Explanation:

The equation to calculate the force is:

Force = mass * acceleration

The force and the acceleration does not have the same direction in this case, so we need to decompose the force into its horizontal component, which is the force that will generate the horizontal acceleration:

Force_x = Force * cos(30)

Then, we have that:

Force_x = mass * acceleration

Force * cos(30) = 25000 * 3

Force * 0.866 = 75000

Force = 75000 / 0.866 = 86605.08 N
