The protons and electrons are held in place on the x axis.
The proton is at x = -d and the electron is at x = +d. They are released at the same time and the only force that affects movement is the electrostatic force that is applied on both subatomic particles. According to Newton's third law, the force Fpe exerted on protons by the electron is opposite in magnitude and direction to the force Fep exerted on the electron by the proton. That is, Fpe = - Fep. According to Newton's second law, this equation can be written as
Mp * ap = -Me * ae
where Mp and Me are the masses, and ap and ae are the accelerations of the proton and the electron, respectively. Since the mass of the electron is much smaller than the mass of the proton, in order for the equation above to hold, the acceleration of the electron at that moment must be considerably larger than the acceleration of the proton at that moment. Since electrons have much greater acceleration than protons, they achieve a faster rate than protons and therefore first reach the origin.
Answer:
-0.7 m/sec
Explanation:
Mass of first block = m1 =3.0 kg
Mass of second block = m2= 5.0 kg
Velocity of first block = V1= 1.2 m/s
Velocity of second block = V2 = ?
Momentum of Center of mass MVcom is sum of both blocks momentum and is given by
MVcom= m1v1+m2v2
Where
M= mass of center of mass
Vcom= Velocity of center of mass=0 m/s (because center of mass is at rest , so Vcom = 0 m.sec)
Putting values, we get;
0= 3×1.2+5v2
==> v2= 3.6/5= - 0.7 m/s
-ve sign indicates that block 2 is moving in opposite direction of block 1
Answer:
536,904 J/s
Explanation:
The energy output from motor is the input energy in the machine.
We know that efficiency is percentage energy ouput to energy input, and expressed as

Where n and E represent efficiency and energy respectively, subscripts o and i represent output and input respectively. Since for the machine we have the input energy then the output will be the product of efficiency and input energy
Energy output=0.6*1200 hp=720 hp
Converting hp to J/s we multiply by 745.7
Energy is 720*745.7=536,904 J/s
Answer:
The final velocity of the thrower is
and the final velocity of the catcher is
.
Explanation:
Given:
The mass of the thrower,
.
The mass of the catcher,
.
The mass of the ball,
.
Initial velocity of the thrower, 
Final velocity of the ball, 
Initial velocity of the catcher, 
Consider that the final velocity of the thrower is
. From the conservation of momentum,

Consider that the final velocity of the catcher is
. From the conservation of momentum,

Thus, the final velocity of thrower is
and that for the catcher is
.
