What is the change in potential energy if the distance separating the electron and proton is increased to 1.0 nm?

Answer:

Ep=-2.3*10^{-19}J

Explanation:

The change in potential energy can be expressed as:

Ep=K.\frac{q1.q2}{r}

where K is a constant with a value of 9*10^{9}\frac{N.m^{2}}{C^{2}}, q1 and q2 are the charges of the proton and the electron and r is the distance between them.

The charge for the proton is +1.6*10^{-19}C and the charge for the electron is -1.6*10^{-19}C.

Converting r=1.0nm to m:

1.0nm*\frac{1*10^{-9}m}{1.0nm}=1*10^{-9}m

Replacing values:

Ep=9*10^{9}\frac{N.m^{2}}{C^{2}}.\frac{(+1.6*10^{-19}C).(-1.6*10^{-19}C)}{1*10^{-9}m}

Ep=-2.3*10^{-19}J

pantera1 [17]

Answer:

Part a)

v = \sqrt{xg + \frac{MLg}{m}}

Part b)

t = 12 s

Explanation:

Part a)

Tension in the rope at a distance x from the lower end is given as

T = \frac{m}{L}xg + Mg

so the speed of the wave at that position is given as

v = \sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu}}

here we know that

\mu = \frac{m}{L}

now we have

v = \sqrt{\frac{ \frac{m}{L}xg + Mg}{m/L}

v = \sqrt{xg + \frac{MLg}{m}}

Part b)

time taken by the wave to reach the top is given as

t = \int \frac{dx}{\sqrt{xg + \frac{MLg}{m}}}

t = \frac{1}{g}(2\sqrt{xg + \frac{MLg}{m}})

t = \frac{2}{9.8}(\sqrt{(39.2\times 9.8) + \frac{8(39.2)(9.8)}{1}})

t = 12 s

Explain the term inertia<br>​
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer: See explanation

Explanation:

Inertia is the force that keeps an object at rest. Inertia is referred to as the property which results in it continuing in the state of rest that it is unless there's an external force that acts upon it.

Inertia keeps objects and things in place and it holds the universe together. When there's no force that's acting in an object, such object will continue to move in a straight line and also at a constant speed.
