Answer:

D. If a home were wired in series, every light and appliance would have to be turned on in order for any light or appliance to work.

Explanation:

In a series circuit, all the appliances are connected on the same branch of the circuit, one after the other. This means that the current flowing throught them is the same. However, this means also that if one of the appliance is turned off (so, its switch is open), that appliance breaks the circuit, so the current can no longer flow through the other appliances either.

On the contrary, when the appliances are connected in parallel, they are connected in different branches, so if one of them is switched off, the other branches continue working unaffacted by it.

coldgirl [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

charge, q = 1.6 x 10^-19 C

distance, r = 911 nm = 911 x 10^-9 m

The Coulomb's force is given by

F=\frac{Kq_{1}q_{2}}{r^{2}}

F=\frac{9\times 10^{9}\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}}{\left (911\times 10^{-9}  \right )^2}

F = 2.78 x 10^-16 N

The force between the electron and the proton is 2.78 x 10^-16 N.

As the proton approaches the uranium nucleus, the repulsive force slows down the proton until it comes momentarily to rest, afte
Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

 r^2 = \frac{ 2 k  \ Ze^2}{ 2m}

Explanation:

For this exercise we must use the principle of conservation of energy

starting point. The proton very far from the nucleus

          Em₀ = K = ½ m v²

final point. The point where the proton is stopped (v = 0)

          Em_f = U = q V

where the potential is

          V = k Ze / r²

Let us consider that all the charge of the nucleus is in the center, therefore r is the distance from this point to the proton that is approaching

Energy is conserved

          Em₀ = Em_f

           ½ m v² = e (k \frac{Ze}{r^2})

          r^2 = \frac{ 2 k  \ Ze^2}{ 2m}

with this expression we can find the closest approach distance (r)
