A uranium and iron atom reside a distance R = 37.50 nm apart. The uranium atom is singly ionized; the iron atom is doubly ionize

postnew [5]

Answer:

r=15.53 nm

$F=9.57\times 10^{-13}N$

Explanation:

Lets take electron is in between iron and uranium

Charge on electron $q_1= -1.602\times 10^{-19}C$

Charge on iron $q_2= 2\times 1.602\times 10^{-19}C$

Charge on uranium $q_3= 1.602\times 10^{-19}C$

We know that force between two charge

$F=K\dfrac{q_1 q_2}{r^2}$

$K=9\times 10^9\dfrac{N-m^2}{c^2}$

For equilibrium force between electron and iron should be force between electron and uranium

Lets take distance between electron and uranium is r so distance between electron and iron will be 37.5-r nm

Now by balancing the force

$K\dfrac{q_1 q_2}{r^2}=K\dfrac{q_1 q_3}{(37.5-r)^2}$

$K\dfrac{q_1q_2}{(37.5-r)^2}=K\dfrac{q_1 q_3}{r^2}$

$q_2= 2\timesq_1,q_3=q_1$

$\dfrac{q_1\times 2\timesq_1}{r^2}=\dfrac{q_1\times q_1}{(37.5-r)^2}$

So r=15.53 nm

So force

$F=9\times 10^9\dfrac{1.602\times 10^{-19}\times 1.602\times 10^{-19}}{(15.53\times 10^{-9})^2}$

$F=9.57\times 10^{-13}N$

A train travels north at a speed of 50 m/s.

Gala2k [10]

The apparent velocity is B) 48 m/s north

Explanation:

Here we have a problem of relativity of velocities.

In fact, the train is travelling north at a speed of

$v_t = 50 m/s$

where this velocity is measured with respect to the ground.

At the same time, a passenger on the train is walking towards the rear (so, south) at a velocity of

$v'=2 m/s$

where this velocity is measured with respect to the train, which is in motion in the opposite direction.

Therefore, the apparent velocity of the passenger with respect to an observer standing on the ground is:

$v=V_t - v' = 50 - 2 = 48 m/s$

And the direction is north, since this number is positive.

Evangelista Torricelli was the first person to realize that we live at the bottom of an ocean of air. He correctly surmised that

Radda [10]

Answer:

a) h = 8.02 10³ m b) yes

Explanation:

a) The pressure in a fluid is given by

P = ρ g h

The pressure in this case is the atmospheric pressure, 1.013 105 Pa, let's clear the height (h)

h = P / ρ g

h = 1.013 10⁵ / (1.29 9.8)

h = 8.02 10³ m

b) The height of Mount Everest is 8848 m

It is above this height, according to this model there would be no air to breathe
