Answer:

K.E = 15.57 x 10⁻¹⁷ J

Explanation:

First, we find the acceleration of the electron by using the formula of electric field:

E = F/q

F = Eq

but, from Newton's 2nd Law:

F = ma

Comparing both equations, we get:

ma = Eq

a = Eq/m

where,

E = electric field intensity = 120 N/C

q = charge of electron = 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C

m = Mass of electron = 9.1 x 10⁻³¹ kg

Therefore,

a = (120 N/C)(1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C)/(9.1 x 10⁻³¹ kg)

a = 2.11 x 10¹³ m/s²

Now, we need to find the final velocity of the electron. Using 3rd equation of motion:

2as = Vf² - Vi²

where,

Vf = Final Velocity = ?

Vi = Initial Velocity = 1.4 x 10⁷ m/s

s = distance = 3.5 m

Therefore,

(2)(2.11 x 10¹³ m/s²)(3.5 m) = Vf² - (1.4 x 10⁷)²

Vf = √(1.477 x 10¹⁴ m²/s² + 1.96 x 10¹⁴ m²/s²)

Vf = 1.85 x 10⁷ m/s

Now, we find the kinetic energy of electron at the end of the motion:

K.E = (0.5)(m)(Vf)²

K.E = (0.5)(9.1 x 10⁻³¹ kg)(1.85 x 10⁷ m/s)²

<u>K.E = 15.57 x 10⁻¹⁷ J</u>

Talja [164]
The solution to the problem is as follows:

 <span>Average = 80 
So Sum = 80 * 5 = 400 
Mode = 88, so two results are 88 (if three results were 88, then the median would be 88). 
Three results are 81, 88, and 88. 
That leaves 143. We could still have one 81 score, so that leaves the lowest score as 62. 

Greg is in a car at the top of a roller-coaster ride. The distance, d, of the car from the ground as the car descends is determined by the equation d = 144 - 16t2, where t is the number of seconds it takes the car to travel down to each point on the ride. How many seconds will it take Greg to reach the ground? 
d = 144 - 16t2 
0 = 144 - 16t2 
16t^2=144 
t^2=9 
t=3</span>

A 100 Kg man is diving off a 50 meter cliff. What is his kinetic energy when he is 20 meters from the water?
iren2701 [21]

Answer:

K.E=29.403125J

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

Mass M=100

Height 50-20=30m

Generally the equation for velocity before impact is is is mathematically given by

v=\sqrt{2gh}

v=\sqrt{2*9.8*30}

v=24.25

Generally the equation for Kinetic Energy is is mathematically given by

K.E=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

K.E=\frac{1}{2}*100*(24.25)^2\\

K.E=29403.125J

K.E=29.403125J
