An electron moving along the x axis has an initial speed of 1 × 106 m/s at the origin. Its speed is reduced to 5 × 105 m/s at th
mina [271]

Answer:

-2.13 V

Explanation:

Given parameters are:

v_i = 1 * 10^6 m/s

v_f = 5 * 10^5 m/s

q = -e = 1.602 * 10^{-19} C

m = 9.109 * 10^{-31} kg

By conservation of energy principle, we know that the potential difference between two points is equal to the change in the kinetic energy between these points.

-\Delta U = \Delta KE\\\\-e\Delta V = \frac{1}{2} mv_f^2 - \frac{1}{2} mv_i^2

Hence,

1.602*10^{-19}\Delta V = \frac{1}{2}*9.11*10^{-31}((5*10^5)^2 - (1*10^6)^2)

⇒ \Delta V = -2.13 V

What scientists do that is the basis of their investigations
matrenka [14]
<span>The "scientific method" consists of forming a hypothesis (a statement about what the researchers think is true), collecting data that might confirm or refute the hypothesis, and then examining the data to see how well or poorly they support the original hypothesis.</span>

Calculate the acceleration of a bus full speed changes from 6 miles to 12 miles over a period of three seconds
Jet001 [13]

Answer:

0.90m/s²

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Initial speed  = 6miles/hr

Final speed  = 12miles/hr

Time taken = 3 seconds

Unknown:

Acceleration = ?

Solution:

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with time. It is mathematically given as:

         Acceleration  = \frac{Final speed - Initial speed}{Time}

We need to convert miles/hr to meters/seconds

Initial speed = 6 x \frac{miles }{hour} x \frac{1hr}{3600s}  x \frac{1609.34m}{1mile}

                      = 2.68m/s

Final speed = 12 x \frac{1609.34}{3600}  = 5.37m/s

      Acceleration  = \frac{5.37  - 2.68}{3}   = 0.90m/s²
