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 charge of 0.14 C is moved from a position where the electric potential is 20 V to a position where the electric potential is 5
alukav5142 [94]

The change in electric potential energy is given by:

ΔU = ΔVq

ΔU = change in PE, ΔV = potential difference, q = charge

Given values:

ΔV = 50V - 20V = 30V, q = 0.14C

Plug in and solve for ΔU:

ΔU = 30(0.14)

ΔU = 4.2J

Suppose you drop a tennis ball from a height of 6 feet. After the ball hits the floor, it rebounds to 80% of
sasho [114]
The formula to solve this is (.80)^3 X 6 and the answer would be 3.1 feet. That is how high the ball will rebound after its third bounce. Thank you for posting your question. I hope that this answer helped you. Let me know if you need more help.

A 2500-N net force acting on a 880-kg car accelerates it at a rate of ______ m/s/s
Bond [772]

Answer:

a = 2.84 m/s²

Explanation:

Given that,

Net force, F = 2500 N

Mass of the car, m = 880 kg

We need to find the acceleration of the car. Net force is given by :

F = ma

a=\dfrac{F}{m}\\\\a=\dfrac{2500\ N}{880\ m/s^2}\\\\a=2.84\ m/s^2

So, the acceleration of the car is 2.84 m/s².
