Real-time distance and velocity data is provided by NASA and JPL. At a distance of 153.88 AU (23.020 billion km; 14.304 billion mi) from Earth as of September 5, 2021, it is the most distant artificial object from Earth. The probe made successful flybys of Jupiter, Saturn, and Saturn's largest moon, Titan.
Given:
u = 10⁵ m/s, the entrance velocity
v = 2.5 x 10⁶ m/s, the exit velocity
s = 1.6 cm = 0.016 m, distance traveled
Let a = the acceleration.
Then
u² + 2as = v²
(10⁵ m/s)² + 2*(a m/s²)*(0.016 m) = (2.5 x 10⁶ m/s)²
0.032a = 6.25 x 10¹² - 10¹⁰ = 6.24 x 10¹²
a = 1.95 x 10¹⁴ m/s²
Answer: 1.95 x 10¹⁴ m/s²
An atom is defined as having the same number of electrons (negative charge), protons (positive charge) and neutrons (no charge). This means that it will have the same amount of negative and positive charge, giving it a net zero charge. On the other hand, an ion has different amount of electrons and protons.
Assuming Earth's gravity, the formula for the flight of the particle is:
<span>s(t) = -16t^2 + vt + s = -16t^2 + 144t + 160. </span>
<span>This has a maximum when t = -b/(2a) = -144/[2(-16)] = -144/(-32) = 9/2. </span>
<span>Therefore, the maximum height is s(9/2) = -16(9/2)^2 + 144(9/2) + 160 = 484 feet. </span>
