The electric force between two charge objects is calculated through the Coulomb's law.
F = kq₁q₂/d²
The value of k is 9.0 x 10^9 Nm²/C² and the charge of proton is 1.602 x10^-19 C. Substituting the known values from the given,
2.30x10^-26 = (9.0 x 10^9 Nm²/C²)(1.602 x10^-19C)²/d²
The value of d is equal to 0.10 m.

Answer:

0.079m

Explanation:

According to coulombs law, the force of attraction between two charges is directly proportional to the product of the charges and inversely proportional to the square of their distance between them.

Mathematically, F = kq1q2/d² where

k is the coulombs constant

F is the force between the charges

q1 and q2 are the charges

d is the distance between the charges

Given F = 2.30×10^-26

d = ?

q1 = q2 = 1.602 x10^-19 C.

k = 9×10^9N/C²m²

Note that charge of proton is 1.602 x10^-19 C.

Substituting the values in the formula to get 'd' we have;

2.3×10^-26 = 9×10^9×(1.602×10^-19)²/d²

2.3×10^-26d² = 9×10^9×(1.602×10^-19)²

2.3×10^-26d² = 9×10^9×1.602×10^-38

2.3×10^-26d² = 1.442×10^-28

d² = 1.442×10^-28/2.3×10^-26

d² = 0.627×10^-2

d² = 0.00627

d = √0.00627

d = 0.079m

It means they are 0.079m apart

Answers:

a) 5400000 J

b) 45.92 m

Explanation:

a) The kinetic energy $K$ of an object is given by:

$K=\frac{1}{2}mV^{2}$

Where:

$m=12000 kg$ is the mass of the train

$V=30 m/s$ is the speed of the train

Solving the equation:

$K=\frac{1}{2}(12000 kg)(30 m/s)^{2}$

$K=5400000 J$ This is the train's kinetic energy at its top speed

b) Now, according to the Conservation of Energy Law, the total initial energy is equal to the total final energy:

$E_{i}=E_{f}$

$K_{i}+P_{i}=K_{f}+P_{f}$

Where:

$K_{i}=5400000 J$ is the train's initial kinetic energy

$P_{i}=0 J$ is the train's initial potential energy

$K_{f}=0 J$ is the train's final kinetic energy

$P_{f}=mgh$ is the train's final potential energy, where $g=9.8 m/s^{2}$ is the acceleration due gravity and $h$ is the height.

Rewriting the equation with the given values:

$5400000 J=(12000 kg)(9.8 m/s^{2})h$

Finding $h$ :

$h=45.918 m \approx 45.92 m$

Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

the longest wavelength of incident sunlight that can eject an electron from the platinum is 233 nm

Explanation:

Given data

Φ = 5.32 eV

to find out

the longest wavelength

solution

we know that

hf = k(maximum) +Ф ...............1

here we consider k(maximum ) will be zero because photon wavelength max when low photon energy

so hf = 0

and hc/ λ = +Ф

so λ = hc/Ф ................2

now put value hc = 1240 ev nm and Φ = 5.32 eV

so hc = 1240 / 5.32

hc = 233 nm

the longest wavelength of incident sunlight that can eject an electron from the platinum is 233 nm
