Complete Question:

A deuteron (a nucleus that consists of one proton and one neutron) is accelerated through a 4.01 kV potential difference. b) How much kinetic energy does it gain? The mass of a proton is 1.67262 × 10−27 kg, the mass of a neutron 1.67493 × 10−27 kg and the charge on an electron −1.60218 × 10−19 C. Answer in units of J\

b) what is the speed?

Answer:

a) the kinetic energy gained =  6.42 * 10⁻¹⁶ J

b) the speed of the particle, v = 619328.3 m/s

Explanation:

q = 1.602 *10⁻¹⁹C

V = 4.01 kV  = 4.01 * 10³ V

Work done by the deuteron = qV

Work done by the deuteron = 1.602 * 10⁻¹⁹ *  4.01 *10³

Work done = 6.42 * 10⁻¹⁶ J

Kinetic Energy gained = work done

Kinetic Energy gained by the deuteron =  6.42 * 10⁻¹⁶ J

B) The formula for Kinetic Energy is given by:

KE = 1/2 Mv²

Let the mass of the proton be m₁ = 1.67262 × 10⁻²⁷kg

Let the mass of the neutron be m₂ =   1.67493 × 10−27 kg

M = m₁ + m₂

KE = 1/2 ( m₁ + m₂)v²

Let v = speed of the deuteron

From part (a)

KE = 6.42 * 10⁻¹⁶ J

 1/2 ( m₁ + m₂)v²=  6.42 * 10⁻¹⁶

0.5 * (1.67262 + 1.6749) *10⁻²⁷ * v² =  6.42 * 10⁻¹⁶

v = 619328.3 m/s

How many mm are in a micro-m?
Dahasolnce [82]

For this case we have that by definition, a micrometer is equivalent to a thousandth of a millimeter, that is, 0.001 millimeters.

Then, in other words, we have 0.001 millimeters in a micrometer.

Answer:

In a micrometer there are 0.001 millimeters.

What is the relationship between Newton's second law and gravitational acceleration?
beks73 [17]

Answer:

Correct answer:  Fg = m · g

Explanation:

Newton's second law states that if a resultant force is applied to an object, the object begins to move at an accelerated rate.

The formula that presents this is:

F = m · a  

this formula applies to an object moving on some surface

where m is the mass of the object and a the acceleration of the object

Let's take it now and watch the free fall:

The formula that presents this is:

Fg = m · g  

this formula applies to an object moving at free fall in vertical direction

Free fall is also an accelerated movement to which Newton's second law applies.

where m is the mass of the object and g the gravitation acceleration of the object . We also know that g is equal:

g = γ · Me / d² where Me is mass of the earth

God is with you!!!
