Two electrons are initially at rest separated by a distance of 2nm. At time t=0, they start to move apart due to Coulombic repul
Gnom [1K]

Answer:

t=2.5\times 10^{-14}\ s

Explanation:

We know that charge on electron

q=1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C

r= 2 nm

We know that force between two charge given

F=K\dfrac{Q_1Q_2}{r^2}

Now by putting the value

F=9\times10^9\dfrac{1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}}{(2\times 10^{-9})^2}

F=5.67\times 10^{-11}\ N

We know that mass of electron

The mass of electron

m=9.1\times 10^{-31}\ kg

F= m a

a= Acceleration of electron

a= F/m

a=\dfrac{5.67\times 10^{-11}}{9.1\times 10^{-31}}\ m/s^2

a=6.2\times 10^{19} m/s^2

S=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2

initial velocity given that zero ,u=0

20\times 10^{-9}=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 6.2\times 10^{19} t^2

t=\sqrt {\dfrac{40\times 10^{-9}}{6.2\times 10^{19}}}

t=2.5\times 10^{-14}\ s

When a hot and cold object are placed in contact, the hot one loses energy. Does this violate energy conservation? Why or why no
blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

This does not violate the conservation of energy.

Explanation:

This does not violate the conservation of energy because the hot body gives energy in the form of heat to the colder body, this second absorbs energy. This will be the case until both bodies reach the same temperature, reaching thermal equilibrium and reducing the transfer of thermal energy. In this way the energy was only transferred from one body to another but the total energy of the system (body 1 plus body 2) will be the same as in the beginning, respecting the principle of conservation of energy or also called the first principle of thermodynamics .

The part of physics that studies these processes is in turn called heat transfer or heat transfer or thermal transfer. Heat transfer occurs whenever there is a thermal gradient or when two systems with different temperatures come into contact. The process persists until thermal equilibrium is reached, that is, until temperatures are equalized. When there is a temperature difference between two objects or regions close enough, the heat transfer cannot be stopped, it can only be slowed down.
