What potential difference is needed to stop an electron that has an initial velocity v=6.0

Physics
1 answer:
Assoli18 [71]3 years ago
7 0

Formula for kinetic energy of an object:

KE = 0.5mv²

m is the mass and v is the velocity.

Formula for the work done on a charged object by moving it through a potential difference:

W = ΔVq

ΔV is the potential difference and q is the charge of the object.

To find the potential difference needed to decelerate an electron to rest, set the work done on the electron equal to its kinetic energy:

W = KE

Substitute W = ΔVq and KE = 0.5mv²

ΔVq = 0.5mv²

Given values:

q = 1.6×10⁻¹⁹C

m = 9.11×10⁻³¹kg

v = 6.0m/s

Plug in the given values and solve for ΔV

ΔV×1.6×10⁻¹⁹ = 0.5×9.11×10⁻³¹×6.0²

ΔV = 1.02×10⁻¹⁰V

A car accelerates from zero to a speed of 110
Verizon [17]

The car's rate of  acceleration : a = 2.04 m/s²

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

speed = 110 km/hr

time = 15 s

Required

The acceleration

Solution

110 km/hr⇒30.56 m/s

Acceleration is the change in velocity over time

a = Δv : Δt

Input the value :

a = 30.56 m/s : 15 s

a = 2.04 m/s²

Answer:

Precisely, water has to absorb 4,184 Joules of heat (1 calorie) for the temperature of one kilogram of water to increase 1°C. For comparison sake, it only takes 385 Joules of heat to raise 1 kilogram of copper 1°C.
