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

If the toy car weighs 250g and has a kinetic energy of 2.0 J, what is its velocity
sergejj [24]

Explanation:

Kinetic energy (J) = 2j

mass= 250g

velocity=?

1kg=1000g

mass= 250/1000

mass=0.25kg

Kinetic energy (J) = ½ x mass (kg) x [velocity]² (m/s)

2=1/2 × 0.25× [velocity]²

2=0.125× [velocity]²

[velocity]² = 2/0.125

[velocity]²=16

velocity= (16)^1/2

velocity= 4 m/s

1. A large turbine has an initial angular momentum of 6700 kgm^2/s. A storm is rolling in and the wind picks up. 8 seconds later
LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

262.5 Nm

Explanation:

Torque is the rate of change of angular momentum.

Hence, we have

\tau = \dfrac{\Delta L}{t}

Δ<em>L</em> is the change in angular momentum.

Using values in the question,

\tau = \dfrac{8800-6700 \text{ kg m}^2\text{/s}}{8\text{ s}}  = 262.5 \text{ Nm}

Two boats start together and race across a 68-km-wide lake and back. boat a goes across at 68 km/h and returns at 68 km/h. boat
e-lub [12.9K]
Boat speed is 68km/h both to and fro.
boat b speed to is 34km/h and back is 102km/h
time taken by boat to is distance/speed= 68 km/68km/h=1 hour
and fro is 68km/68km/h=1 hour
for the whole trip boat a took 2 hours
boat b speed to is 34km/h and distance is 68km, so it took 68km/34km/h = 2 hours to and fro it took 68km/102km/h=0.67 hours
for the whole trip boat b took 2.67 hours
so boat a is the winner as it took 2 hours to complete the challenge.
