Consider a model of a hydrogen atom in which an electron is in a circular orbit of radius r = 5.92×10−11 m around a stationary p
DaniilM [7]

Answer:

2.068 x 10^6 m / s

Explanation:

radius, r = 5.92 x 10^-11 m

mass of electron, m = 9.1 x 10^-31 kg

charge of electron, q = 1.6 x 10^-19 C

As the electron is revolving in a circular path, it experiences a centripetal force which is balanced by the electrostatic force between the electron and the nucleus.

centripetal force = \frac{mv^{2}}{r}

Electrostatic force = \frac{kq^{2}}{r^{2}}

where, k be the Coulombic constant, k = 9 x 10^9 Nm^2 / C^2

So, balancing both the forces we get

\frac{kq^{2}}{r^{2}}=\frac{mv^{2}}{r}

v=\sqrt{\frac{kq^{2}}{mr}}

v=\sqrt{\frac{9\times 10^{9}\times1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}}{9.1\times 10^{-31}\times 5.92\times10^{-11}}}

v = 2.068 x 10^6 m / s

Thus, the speed of the electron is give by  2.068 x 10^6 m / s.

Johnny travels to the moon explain what will happen to his mass and weight?
zlopas [31]
His weight on the moon would be less due to gravity and i also believe during your time under little gravity your spine decompresses so you get taller <span />

A 4 kg bowling ball moving at 1.4 m/s east impacts a 400 g pin that is stationary. After the impact, the ball is moving at 0.5 m
nignag [31]

The speed of the pin after the elastic collision is 9 m/s east.

<h3>Final speed of the pin</h3>

The final speed of the pin is calculated by applying the principle of conservation of linear momentum as follows;

m1u1 + mu2 = m1v1 + m2v2

where;

  • m is the mass of the objects
  • u is the initial speed of the objects
  • v is the final speed of the objects

4(1.4) + 0.4(0) = 4(0.5) + 0.4v2

5.6 = 2 + 0.4v2

5.6 - 2 = 0.4v2

3.6 = 0.4v2

v2 = 3.6/0.4

v2 = 9 m/s

Thus, The speed of the pin after the elastic collision is 9 m/s east.

Explain Energy Transformation using the image below and how the Law of Conservation of Energy is maintained.
Karolina [17]

The chemical energy of petrol is converted to heat energy on combustion. The heat energy is converted to kinetic energy by the use of internal combustion engines in vehicles. The law of conservation of energy is maintained in each process.

<h3>What is kinetic energy?</h3>

The kinetic energy of an object is associated with its motion. It can be related to the mass and velocity as

K.E = 1/2 mv²

Given is a diagram of energy conversion due to combustion.

The chemical energy of petrol is converted to heat energy on combustion. The heat energy is converted to kinetic energy by the use of internal combustion engines in vehicles.

The law of conservation of energy states that the energy can neither be created nor destroyed. It can be only converted to one form to the other.

In the given process, the mass decreases but energy remains the same in all forms of energy.

Hence, the law of conservation of energy is maintained in each process
