Two electrons are initially at rest separated by a distance of 2nm. At time t=0, they start to move apart due to Coulombic repul

Gnom [1K]

Answer:

$t=2.5\times 10^{-14}\ s$

Explanation:

We know that charge on electron

$q=1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C$

r= 2 nm

We know that force between two charge given

$F=K\dfrac{Q_1Q_2}{r^2}$

Now by putting the value

$F=9\times10^9\dfrac{1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}}{(2\times 10^{-9})^2}$

$F=5.67\times 10^{-11}\ N$

We know that mass of electron

The mass of electron

$m=9.1\times 10^{-31}\ kg$

F= m a

a= Acceleration of electron

a= F/m

$a=\dfrac{5.67\times 10^{-11}}{9.1\times 10^{-31}}\ m/s^2$

$a=6.2\times 10^{19} m/s^2$

$S=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2$

initial velocity given that zero ,u=0

$20\times 10^{-9}=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 6.2\times 10^{19} t^2$

$t=\sqrt {\dfrac{40\times 10^{-9}}{6.2\times 10^{19}}}$

$t=2.5\times 10^{-14}\ s$

You are at the edge of a diving board that is 9 meters above the water. If you weigh 500 Newtons, what is your potential energy?

Semenov [28]

Answer:

4500 J

Explanation:

First, let's define some equations and derivations.

Our potential energy formula is:

$\displaystyle U = mgh$

Where m is mass (in kg), g is the gravitational constant (in m/s²), and h is height (in m).

We also know that mg is equal to the weight of an object (in N), from Newton's 2nd Law of Motion: F = ma (Force is equal to [constant] mass times acceleration).

Therefore, we can simply substitute force into the equation:

$\displaystyle U = Fh$

Where F is the force (in N) and h is still height (in m).

Now we can calculate the amount of potential energy in our system, measured in joules.

Substitute in the given variables, F = 500 N and h = 9 m:

$\displaystyle U = (500 \ N)(9 \ m)$

Using simple Pre-Algebra rules, we find that:

$\displaystyle U = 4500 \ J$

This tells us that the we have 4500 joules of potential energy when I am 9 meters above the water on the edge of the diving board.

Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

The current will decrease.

Explanation:

When another bulb is added, the resistance is going to increase. Keep in mind that the current is inversely proportional to the resistance (Ohm's law: R= V/I ). Therefore when the resistance increase, the current running in the circuit will decrease.

how many times does the kinectic energy of a car increase when traveling 60 mph as opposed to traveling 30 mph

Bumek [7]

The car at 60 kph has 9 times more kinetic energy than the car traveling at 20 kph. This assumes that both cars have the same mass. Kinetic energy depends on the square of thee speed so if one car is going 3 times faster, its kinetic energy will be 3^2 ( = 9 ) greater. The car going at 60 kph will have 4 times the KE of the car going at 30 kph ( again assuming that the cars have the same mass.)
