Charge q is accelerated starting from rest up to speed v through the potential difference V. What speed will charge q have after

adoni [48]

Answer: v = $1.19 * 10^{6} m/s$

Explanation: q = magnitude of electronic charge = $1.609 * 10^{-19} c$

mass of an electronic charge = $9.10 * 10^{-31} kg$

V= potential difference = 4V

v = velocity of electron

by using the work- energy theorem which states that the kinetic energy of the the electron must equal the work done use in accelerating the electron.

kinetic energy = $\frac{mv^{2} }{2}$ , potential energy = qV

hence, $\frac{mv^{2} }{2} = qV$

$\frac{9.10 *10^{-31} * v^{2} }{2} = 1.609 * 10^{-16} * 4\\\\\\\\9.10*10^{-31} * v^{2} = 2 * 1.609 *10^{-16} * 4\\\\\\9.10 *10^{-31} * v^{2} = 1.287 *10^{-15} \\\\v^{2} = \frac{1.287 *10^{-15} }{9.10 *10^{31} } \\\\v^{2} = 1.414*10^{15} \\\\v = \sqrt{1.414*10^{15} } \\\\v = 1.19 * 10^{6} m/s$

What is the idea behind the law of multiple proportions?

Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

The law of multiple proportions states that when two elements can combine in different ratios to form different compounds, the masses of the element combining with the fixed mass of another element result in whole number ratios. This shows that the law of multiple proportions is followed

The velocity of sound apparatus is used in an investigation to determine the frequency of an unknown tuning fork. The temperatur

Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

Explanation:

The relationship of the speed of sound, its frequency, and wavelength is the same as for all waves: vw = fλ, where vw is the speed of sound, f is its frequency, and λ is its wavelength.

What is the wavelength of a wave with a frequency of 200Hz while traveling at 125.5m/s

nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

0.6275 metres

Explanation:

v = fl

125.5 = 200 * wavelength

125.5 / 200 = wavelength = 0.6275m

An initially stationary object experiences an acceleration of 6 m/s2 for a time of 15 s. How far will it travel during that time

umka21 [38]

Answer:

Explanation:

s = s₀ + v₀t + ½at²

s = 0 + 0(15) + ½(6)(15²)

s = 675 m

Not sure what the free fall acceleration is needed for, but if the object is dropped from a high enough point, it will travel in 15 seconds

s = ½10(15²) = 2250 m if air resistance is ignored
