Consider an electron and a proton that are initially at rest and are separated by 2.00 nm. Neglecting any motion of the much mor

e massive proton, what is the minimum (a) kinetic energy and (b) speed that the electron must be projected at so it reaches a point a distance of 12.0 nm from the proton? Assume the electron’s velocity is directed radially away from the proton. (c) How far will the electron travel away from the proton if it has twice that initial kinetic energy?

Answer:

a)W = 57.6\times10^{-19} J

b) v =   3.556\times10^6 m/s

c) displacment = 400nm

Explanation:

Given that

charge of the electron and proton q =1.6\times10^{-19} C

the distance between electron and proton = 2.0 nm

The force between the proton and electron

F = kq^/r^2

Here k = 9\times10^9 N.m^2/C^2

F = (9\times10^9)(1.6\times10^-19)(1.6\times10^-19)/(2.0\times10^-9)^2   \\= 5.76\times10^-11N

The work done in displacing the electron from 2.0 nm to 12 nm

is the minimum kinetic energy

W = F .s

W = (5.76\times10^{-11}N)(10\times10^{-9} m)\\W = 57.6\times10^{-19} J

(b)

If this energy is the kinetic energy of the electron

(1/2) m v^2 \\= 57.6\times10^{-19} J

Here m is the mass of the electron =9.0\times10^{-31} kg

The speed of the electron v =   3.556\times10^6 m/s

(c)

If the kinetic energy is twice the initial kinetic energy

2*(initial kinetic energy) = F*displacement

displacement = 2*(initial kinetic energy)/F

Displacement = 2(57.6\times10^{-19} J)/(5.76\time10^{-11}N)

displacement = 400 nm

salantis [7]

Answer:

A. Time Division multiple Access (TDMA)

Explanation:

Time-division multiple access (TDMA) is a channel access method for shared-medium networks

It allows several users to share the same frequency channel by dividing the signal into different time slots. The users transmit in rapid succession, one after the other, each using its own time slot.

An astronaut finds herself in a predicament in which she has become untethered from her shuttle. She figures that she could get
Blizzard [7]

In order to solve the problem, it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the conservation of momentum, especially when there is an impact or the throwing of an object.

The equation that defines the linear moment is given by

mV_i = (m-m_O)V_f - m_OV_O

where,

m=Total mass

m_O = Mass of Object

V_i = Velocity before throwing

V_f = Final Velocity

V_O = Velocity of Object

Our values are:

m_1=5.3kgm_2=7.9kg\\m_3=10.5kg\\m_A=75kg\\m_{Total}=m=98.7Kg

Solving to find the final speed, after throwing the object we have

V_f=\frac{mV_0+m_TV_O}{m-m_O}

We have three objects. For each object a launch is made so the final mass (denominator) will begin to be subtracted successively. In addition, during each new launch the initial speed will be given for each object thrown again.

That way during each section the equations should be modified depending on the previous one, let's start:

A) 5.3Kg\rightarrow 15m/s

V_{f1}=\frac{mV_0+m_TV_O}{m-m_O}

V_{f1}=\frac{(98.7)*0+5.3*15}{98.7-5.3}

V_{f1}=0.8511m/s

B) 7.9Kg\rightarrow 11.2m/s

V_{f2}=\frac{mV_{f1}+m_TV_O}{m-m_O}

V_{f2}=\frac{(98.7)(0.8511)+(7.9)(11.2)}{98.7-5.3-7.9}

V_{f2} = 2.0173m/s

C) 10.5Kg\rightarrow 7m/s

V_{f3}=\frac{mV_{f2}+m_TV_O}{m-m_O}

V_{f3}=\frac{(98.7)(2.0173)+(10.5)(7)}{98.7-5.3-7.9-10.5}

V_{f3} = 3.63478m/s

Therefore the final velocity of astronaut is 3.63m/s
