Answer:

Explanation:

q = - 15 n C = - 15 x 10^-9 c

(a) d = 0.9 cm = 0.009 m

electric field on proton, E = Kq/d²

E = 9 x 10^9 x 15 x 10^-9 / (0.009)²

E = 1.67 x 10^6 N/C

Force on proton, F = charge on proton x Electric field

F = 1.6 x 10^-19 x 1.67 x 10^6 = 2.67 x 10^-13 N

acceleration of proton, a = F / m

a = (2.67 x 10^-13) / (1.67 x 10^-27)

a = 1.6 x 10^14 m/s²

(B) the direction of acceleration is towards the bead, as the force is attractive.

electric field on proton, E = Kq/d²

E = 9 x 10^9 x 15 x 10^-9 / (0.009)²

E = 1.67 x 10^6 N/C

Force on electron, F = charge on electron x Electric field

F = 1.6 x 10^-19 x 1.67 x 10^6 = 2.67 x 10^-13 N

acceleration of proton, a = F / m

a = (2.67 x 10^-13) / (9.1 x 10^-31)

a = 3 x 10^17 m/s²

(D) the direction of acceleration is away from the bead, as the force is repulsive.

A woman places her briefcase on the backseat of her car. As she drives to work, the car negotiates an unbanked curve in the road

PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

The force that cause the centripetal acceleration is the static friction, and the briefcase begin to move if the force of centripetal acceleration exceeds the force due to the static friction

Explanation:

Given data:

r = radius = 54.5 m

v = speed of the car = 12.4 m/s

The force due to the static friction that is exerted on the curve in the road is what causes the centripetal acceleration. If the force due to centripetal acceleration is greater than the force of static friction, then the briefcase will begin to roll.

Explain how forces of attraction and repulsion exist within an atom

Stels [109]

Answer:

Oppositely charged particles attract each other, while like particles repel one another. Electrons are kept in the orbit around the nucleus by the electromagnetic force, because the nucleus in the center of the atom is positively charged and attracts the negatively charged electrons.

How does the sun transmit energy from millions of miles away into the Earth system? 'Energy' and 'power' are often confused, but

Leona [35]

Answer:

Energy from sun travels to the earth by radiation of waves.

Energy is the capacity to do the work whereas power is the rate of doing work or the rate of energy transfer.

Energy always transforms from higher grade to a lower grade.

Positive feedback are not good when it disturbs the stability too much over a wide range.

No, negative feedback are not always bad because they enhance the stability of our system, resist the change in a system making it consistent and have a narrower range of variation.

Explanation:

The energy from the sun travels a huge distance in vacuum and atmosphere.

The solar energy travels to the earth in the form of electromagnetic radiations which do not require any medium of transmission and are capable of travelling in vacuum by the mode called radiation. In this mode the packets of energy get directly transmitted from the source to its surroundings. This packet of energy is called quanta.

Energy is the capacity to do work. Everything that we see and feel around us is some sort of energy. Every matter is the condensed form of energy the other forms that we cannot touch or feel is the wave form of energy. The wave form of energy stays in two form either stored in a mass or it is in transition. Now the concept of power arises form the energy in motion, power is defined as the rate of doing work or the rate of energy transfer. We usually use the term power for the energy in motion.

We can burn a gallon of fuel only once because it undergoes a chemical change and the chemical changes are mostly permanent in nature. There is a certain direction to which the energy can flow spontaneously. When we burn the fuel then the stored chemical energy of the fuel gets converted into heat and light and the heat energy released during the combustion of the fuel is sufficient to further provide the heat of combustion of fuel.

Energy always transforms from high grade to the lower grade and the converse is not possible spontaneously.

Positive feedback are not good when it disturbs the stability too much over a wide range.

No, negative feedback are not always bad because they enhance the stability of our system, resist the change in a system making it consistent and have a narrower range of variation.
