Work done to bring three electrons from a great distance apart to 3.0×10−10 m from one another (at the corners of an equilateral triangle) is $2.301*10^{-18} Joules$

Explanation:

The potential energy is given by:

U=Q*V

where:

Q is the charge

V is the potential difference

Potential Difference=V= $\frac{kq}{r}$

So,

$Potential\ Energy=\frac{Qkq}{r} \\Q=q\\Potential\ Energy=\frac{kq^2}{r}$

Where:

k is Coulomb Constant= $8.99*10^9 Nm^2/C^2$

q is the charge on electron= $-1.6*10^-19 C$

r is the distance= $3.0*10^{-10}m$

For 3 Electrons Potential Energy or work Done is:

$Potential\ Energy=3*\frac{kq^2}{r}$

$Potential\ Energy=3*\frac{(8.99*10^9)(-1.6*10^{-19})^2}{3*10^{-10}}\\Potential\ Energy=2.301*10^{-18} J$

Work done to bring three electrons from a great distance apart to 3.0×10−10 m from one another (at the corners of an equilateral triangle) is $2.301*10^{-18} Joules$

A dumbell has a mass of 95 kg. What force must be applied to accelerate it upward at 2.2 m/s2?

Sveta_85 [38]

A :-) F = ma
Given - m = 95 kg
a = 2.2 m/s^2
Solution -
F = ma
F = 95 x 2.2
F = 209

.:. The force is 209 N
