(a) The proton’s potential energy change is 3.6 x 10⁻¹⁸ J.
(b) The potential difference between the negative plate and a point midway between the plates is 11.25 V.
(c) The speed of the proton just before it hits the negative plate is 6.57 x 10⁴ m/s.
<h3>
Potential energy of the proton</h3>
U = qΔV
where;
- q is charge of the proton
- ΔV is potential difference
U = q(Ed)
U = (1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹)(1500 x 1.5 x 10⁻²)
U = 3.6 x 10⁻¹⁸ J
<h3>Potential difference between the negative plate and a point midway</h3>
ΔV = E(0.5d)
ΔV = 0.5Ed
ΔV = 0.5 (1500)(1.5 x 10⁻²)
ΔV = 11.25 V
<h3>Speed of the proton </h3>
U = ¹/₂mv²
U = mv²
v² = 2U/m
where;
- m is mass of proton = 1.67 x 10⁻²⁷ kg
v² = (2 x 3.6 x 10⁻¹⁸) / ( 1.67 x 10⁻²⁷)
v² = 4.311 x 10⁹
v = √(4.311 x 10⁹)
v = 6.57 x 10⁴ m/s
Thus, the proton’s potential energy change is 3.6 x 10⁻¹⁸ J.
The potential difference between the negative plate and a point midway between the plates is 11.25 V.
The speed of the proton just before it hits the negative plate is 6.57 x 10⁴ m/s.

It helps reduce the amount of carbon emissions released into the air
<span>An electrostatic precipitator is a filtration device that removes fine particles, like dust and smoke, from a flowing gas using the force of an induced electrostatic charge minimally impeding(slowing down) the flow of gases through the unit.

a device for removing small particles, as of smoke, dust, or oil, from a gas, as air, by passing the gas first through an electrically charged screen that gives a charge to the particles, then between two charged plates where the particles are attracted to one <span>surface.

(A) The total initial momentum of the system is
(1.30 kg) (27.0 m/s) + (23.0 kg) (0 m/s) = 35.1 kg•m/s
(B) Momentum is conserved, so that the total momentum of the system after the collision is
35.1 kg•m/s = (1.30 kg + 23.0 kg) <em>v</em>
where <em>v</em> is the speed of the combined blocks. Solving for <em>v</em> gives
<em>v</em> = (35.1 kg•m/s) / (24.3 kg) ≈ 1.44 m/s
(C) The kinetic energy of the system after the collision is
1/2 (1.30 kg + 23.0 kg) (1.44 m/s)² ≈ 25.4 J
and before the collision, it is
1/2 (1.30 kg) (27.0 m/s)² ≈ 474 J
so that the change in kinetic energy is
∆<em>K</em> = 25.4 J - 474 J ≈ -449 J
To find momentum you multiply the mass and velocity.
91 × 7 = 637 kg-m/s
Answer:
Subduction occurs and a trench is formed.
Explanation:
- When a tectonic plate carrying an oceanic crust collides with a tectonic plate carrying a continental crust then the oceanic plate will slide beneath the continental one, forming a trench.
- This is possible because the oceanic crust is less dense than the continental crust.
Subduction is a geological phenomenon in which the tectonic plates of one crustal plate descends below the edge of the other. The region where this happens is called a subduction zone.
