Answer:

Part A:

Electric potential =V=9.8821*10^5 V

Part B:

Electric Potential Energy=U=35.57556 MeV

Explanation:

Part A:

Charge on the fragment that has 36 Protons in it:

Charge on single roton=1.6*10^{-19} C

Charge on 36 protons=36*1.6*10^{-19} C

Charge on 36 protons=5.76*10^{-18}\ C

Distance=r=5.24*10^{-14}\ m

Formula For electric potential V:

V=\frac{kQ}{r}

Where

k is coulomb constant=8.99*10^9\ N.m^2/C^2

r is the distance

Q is the charge on 6 protons

V=\frac{5.76*10^{-18}*8.99*10^9}{5.24*10^{-14}}\\V=988213.7405 V\\V=9.8821*10^5 V

Electric potential =V=9.8821*10^5 V

Part B:

Electric Potential Energy=U

U=q*V

V is the electric potential

q is the number of protons

U=36*9.8821*10^5 \\U=35575560 eV\\U=35.57556 MeV

Electric Potential Energy=U=35.57556 MeV

A radio technician measures the frequency of an AM radio transmitter. The frequency is . What is the frequency in megahertz? Wri
sukhopar [10]

Complete Question

A radio technician measures the frequency of an AM radio transmitter. The frequency is 14603 kHz . What is the frequency in megahertz? Write your answer as a decimal.

Answer:

The value is  x =  14.6 \  MHz

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The  frequency is  f =  14603  \  kHz = 14603 *1000 = 14603000 \ Hz

Generally  

       1 Hz \to  1.0 *10^{-6} \  MHz

       14603000 \ Hz  \to x MHz

=>   x =  \frac{14603000 *  1.0*10^{-6}}{1 }

=>    x =  14.6 \  MHz

A 3.0kg mass tied to a string
dem82 [27]

Answer:

\boxed{\sf Tension \ in \ the \ string \ (T) = 3 \ kN}

Given:

Mass (m) = 3.0 kg

Uniform speed (v) = 20 m/s

Length of string (r) = 40 cm = 0.4 m

To Find:

Tension in the string (T)

Explanation:

Tension (T) is the string will be equal to centripetal force (\sf F_c).

\boxed{ \bold{ T = F_c  =  \frac{m {v}^{2} }{r} }}

Substituting value of m, v & r in the equation:

\sf \implies T =  \frac{3 \times  {20}^{2} }{0.4}  \\  \\  \sf \implies T = \frac{3 \times 400}{0.4}  \\  \\  \sf \implies T =3 \times 1000 \\  \\  \sf \implies T =3000 \: N \\  \\ \sf \implies T =3 \: kN

\therefore

Tension in the string (T) = 3 kN

A go-cart and rider have a mass of 14 kg. If the cart accelerates at 6m/s^2 during a 40 m sprint in 100 seconds, how much power
lara [203]

Answer:

P = 33.6 [N]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use Newton's second law, which tells us that the sum of forces on a body is equal to the product of mass by acceleration.

∑F = m*a

where:

F = forces [N]

m = mass = 14 [kg]

a = acceleration = 6 [m/s²]

F = 14*6\\F = 84 [N]

In the second part of this problem we must find the work done, where the work in physics is known as the product of force by distance, it is important to make it clear that force must be applied in the direction of movement.

W = F*d

where:

W = work [J]

F = force = 84 [N]

d = displaciment = 40 [m]

W = 84*40\\W = 3360 [J]

Finally, the power can be calculated by the relationship between the work performed in a given time interval.

P=W/t\\

where:

P = power [W]

W = work = 3360 [J]

t = time = 100 [s]

Now replacing:

P=3360/100\\P=33.6[W]

The power is given in watts

What happens to the work done when a force is doubled and the distance moved remain the same?​
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

Work done gets doubled.

Explanation:

The work done by a force is given by :

W = Fd

Where

F is force and d is distance move

If the force is doubled and the distance moved remain the same, it would mean that the work done becomes double of the initial work done.
