Atomic physicists usually ignore the effect of gravity within an atom. To see why, we may calculate and compare the magnitude of

the ratio of the electrical force and gravitational force Fe Fg between an electron and a proton separated by a distance of 3 m. What is the magnitude of the electrical force? The Coulomb constant is 8.98755 × 109 N · m 2 /C 2 , the gravitational constant is 6.67259 × 10−11 m3 /kg · s 2 , the mass of a proton is 1.67262 × 10−27 kg, the mass of an electron is 9.10939 × 10−31 kg, and the elemental charge is 1.602 × 10−19 C. Answer in units of N. What is the ratio of the magnitude of the electrical force to the magnitude of the gravitational force? Answer in units of N.

Answer:

2.27\cdot 10^{49}

Explanation:

The gravitational force between the proton and the electron is given by

F_G=G\frac{m_p m_e}{r^2}

where

G is the gravitational constant

m_p is the proton mass

m_e is the electron mass

r = 3 m is the distance between the proton and the electron

Substituting numbers into the equation,

F_G=(6.67259\cdot 10^{-11} m^3 kg s^{-2})\frac{(1.67262\cdot 10^{-27}kg) (9.10939\cdot 10^{-31}kg)}{(3 m)^2}=1.13\cdot 10^{-68}N

The electrical force between the proton and the electron is given by

F_E=k\frac{q_p q_e}{r^2}

where

k is the Coulomb constant

q_p = q_e = q is the elementary charge (charge of the proton and of the electron)

r = 3 m is the distance between the proton and the electron

Substituting numbers into the equation,

F_E=(8.98755\cdot 10^9 Nm^2 C^{-2})\frac{(1.602\cdot 10^{-19}C)^2}{(3 m)^2}=2.56\cdot 10^{-19}N

So, the ratio of the electrical force to the gravitational force is

\frac{F_E}{F_G}=\frac{2.56\cdot 10^{-19} N}{1.13\cdot 10^{-68}N}=2.27\cdot 10^{49}

So, we see that the electrical force is much larger than the gravitational force.

As a 3.0 kg bucket is being lowered into a 10 m deepwell, starting from top, the tension in the rope is 9.8 N. theacceleration o
777dan777 [17]

Answer:

A) 6.5 m/s²

Explanation:

Mass of the bucket, m = 3.0 kg

depth of the well, d = 10 m

tension on the rope, T = 9.8 N

The net downward force on the bucket is given as;

T = mg - ma

where;

a is downward acceleration of the bucket

9.8 = (3 x 9.8) - 3a

9.8 = 29.4 - 3a

3a = 29.4 - 9.8

3a = 19.6

a = 19.6 / 3

a = 6.53 m/s² downwards

Therefore, the acceleration of the bucket is 6.53 m/s² downwards

Along a horizontal snow-covered track, a sled, of mass m = 105 kg, slides by the action of a horizontal force of 230 N. The coef
Andrew [12]

Answer:

Explanation:

The only thing I can figure you need here is the accleration of the sled. The equation we need to find this is Newton's Second Law that says that sum of the forces acting on an object is equal to the object's mass times its acceleration. For us, that looks like this because of the friction working against the sled:

F - f = ma but of course it's much more involved than that simple equation! We have the F value as 230 N, and we have the mass as 105, but we do not have the frictional force, f, and we need it to solve for a in the above equation. We know that

f = μF_n where μ is the coefficient of friction, and F_n is the normal force, aka weight of the object. We will use the coefficient of friction and find the weight in order to fill in for f:

F_n=mg so

F_n=(105)(9.8) so the weight of the sled is

F_n= 1.0 × 10³ with the correct number of sig dig there. Now to find f:

f = (.025)(1.0 × 10³) so

f = 25 to the correct number of sig fig. Now on to our "real" equation:

F - f = ma and

230 - 25 = 105a. We have to do the subtraction first, round, and then divide since the rules for addition and subtraction are different from the rules for dividing and multiplying.

230 - 25 will round to the tens place giving us 210. Then

210 = 105a. 210 has 2 sig figs in it while 105 has 3, so we will divide and round to 2 sig fig:

a = 2.0 m/sec²
