The kinetic energy of the electron is
K= \frac{1}{2}mv^2
where m=9.1 \cdot 10^{-31} kg is the mass of the electron and v its speed. Since we know the value of the kinetic energy, K=4.1 \cdot 10^{-18} J, we can find the value of the speed v:
v= \sqrt{ \frac{2K}{m} }= \sqrt{ \frac{2\cdot 4.1 \cdot 10^{-18}J}{9.1 \cdot 10^{-31}kg} }  = 3\cdot 10^6 m/s

How would you compare and contrast the 3 types of friction?
vlabodo [156]
Rolling friction .<span> the force that slows down the movement of a rolling object</span>
sliding friction.
Sliding friction : The opposing force that comes into play when one body is actually sliding over the surface of the other body is called sliding friction. e.g. A flat block is moving over a horizontal table.

Kinetic or dynamic friction: If the applied force is increased further and sets the body in motion, the friction opposing the motion is called kinetic friction

Leni [432]

Answer:

The length of line is 78 cm or 0.78 m.

Explanation:

initial reading 2 mark

final reading 80 cm

The length of the line

= final reading - initial reading

= 80 - 2

= 78 cm

1 cm = 0.01  m

So, 78 cm = 0.78 m

Estimated speed of the vehicle
SSSSS [86.1K]

Really, Gundy ? ! ?

The formula for the car's speed is given and discussed in the box.  The formula is

v = √(2·g·μ·d)

Then they <em>tell</em> you that μ is 0.750 , and then they <em>tell</em> you that d = 52.9 m .  Also, everybody knows that 'g' is gravity = 9.8 m/s² .

They also tell us that the mass of the car is 1,000 kg, and they tell us that it took 3.8 seconds to skid to a stop.  But we already <em>have</em> all the numbers in the formula <em>without</em> knowing the car's mass or how long it took to stop.  The police don't need to weigh the car, and nobody was there to measure how long the car took to stop.  All they need is the length of the skid mark, which they can measure, and they'll know how fast the guy was going when he hit the brakes !

Now, can you take the numbers and plug them into the formula ? ! ?

v = √(2·g·μ·d)

v = √( 2 · 9.8 m/s² · 0.75 · 52.9 m)

v = √( 777.63 m²/s²)

v = 27.886 m/s

Rounded to 3 digits, that's  <em>27.9 m/s </em>.

That's about 62.4 mile/hour .
