Find the horizontal components vcos30 ...one goes right and one goes left so they cancel each other.
Find vertical components vsin30.....there are two of them.... so 2vcos30....hey presto... resultant velocity = 2vCos30

Calculate the speed of a proton after it accelerates from rest through a potential difference of 350 V.

AVprozaik [17]

The speed of a proton after it accelerates from rest through a potential difference of 350 V is $25.86 \times 10^4 ~m/s$ .

Initial velocity of the proton $u = 0$

Given potential difference $\Delta V = 350V$

let's assume that the speed of the proton is $v$ ,

Since the proton is accelerating through a potential difference, proton's potential energy will change with time. The potential energy of a particle of charge $q$ when accelerated with a potential difference $\Delta V$ is,

$U = q \Delta V$

Due to Work-Energy Theorem and Conservation of Energy - If there is no non-conservative force acting on a particle then loss in Potential energy P.E must be equal to gain in Kinetic Energy K.E i.e

$\Delta K = \Delta V$

If the initial and final velocity of the proton is $u$ and $v$ respectively then,

change in Kinetic Energy $\implies \Delta K = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 -\frac{1}{2}mu^2 = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 - 0$

change in Potential Energy $\implies \Delta U = q\Delta V$

from conservation of energy,

$v= \sqrt{\frac{2q\Delta V}{m}}$

so, $v = \sqrt{\frac{2\times 350 \times 1.6\times 10^{-19}}{1.67 \times 10^{-27}}$

$= 25.86 \times 10^4 ~m/s$

A proton is 0.9 meters away from a 1.4 C charge. What is the magnitude of the electric force between the proton and the charge

Digiron [165]

Answer:

F = 2.49 x 10⁻⁹ N

Explanation:

The electrostatic force between two charged bodies is given by Colomb's Law:

$F = \frac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}\\$

where,

F = Electrostatic Force = ?

k = colomb's constant = 9 x 10⁹ N.m²/C²

q₁ = charge on proton = 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C

q₂ = second charge = 1.4 C

r = distace between charges = 0.9 m

Therefore,

$F = \frac{(9\ x\ 10^9\ N.m^2/C^2)(1.6\ x\ 10^{-19}\ C)(1.4\ C)}{(0.9\ m)^2}$

F = 2.49 x 10⁻⁹ N

What is the difference between balanced force and action reaction force

Vilka [71]

Answer:

Balanced forces are equal and opposite forces that act on the same object. ... Action-reaction forces are equal and opposite forces that act on different objects, so they don't cancel out. In fact, they often result in motion.
