A proton (mass=1.67x10^-27 kg, charge= 1.60x10^-19 C) moves from point A to point under the influence of an electrostatic force

only. At point A the proton moves with a speed of 50 m/s. At point B the speed of the proton is 80 km/s. Determine the potential difference VB-VA in volts.

Answer:

VB -  VA  =  - 33.4

Explanation:

Generally the workdone in moving the proton is mathematically represented as

     W  =  KE_f  - KE_i

Where KE_i \ and \  KE_f \  are\  the\  initial  \  and  \  final \  kinetic \  energy

So

    KE_i  =  \frac{1}{2} m v_a^2

Here v_a is the velocity at A with value  50 m/s

So

    KE_i  =  \frac{1}{2} (1.67*10^{-27}) * 50^2

    KE_i  = 2.09 *10^{-24} \  J

Also  

     KE_f  =  \frac{1}{2} m v_b^2

Here v_a is the velocity at A with value 80 km/s = 80000 m/s

=>   KE_f  =  \frac{1}{2} (1.67*10^{-27}) * 80000^2

=>   KE_f  = 5.34 *10^{-18} \  J

 So

    W  =   5.34 *10^{-18}  - 2.09 *10^{-24}

     W  =   5.34 *10^{-18}  m/s

Now this workdone is also mathematically represented as

     W =  q *  V

So  

    q *  V =   5.34 *10^{-18}

Here  q =  1.60*10^{-19} C

So

        V =   \frac{5.34 *10^{-18} }{1.60*10^{-19}}

         V =   33.4 \  V

Generally proton movement is in the direction of the electric field it means that  VA>VB

So

    VB -  VA  =  - 33.4

Can someone please explain number 8?
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer: Ax=(Vx-Vox)/(T)

Vx=Vox+Ax*T

Solving for Ax in terms of Vx, Vox, T

Vx-Vox=Ax*t

Ax=(Vx-Vox)/(T)

This is saying the acceleration in the x-direction can be found by taking the difference between the finial and initial Velocity in x-direction and dividing it by the Total Time.

Any questions please feel free to ask. Thanks

The drag force pushes opposite your motion as you ride a bicycle. If you double your speed, what happens to the magnitude of the
PIT_PIT [208]

The drag force is directly proportional to the square of the velocity of motion of the object. So as the speed is doubled, the magnitude of drag force will get quadrupled.

<u>Explanation: </u>

Drag force is the opposing or resisting force acting on any object by the medium in which it is moving. So in this case, you are riding a bicycle, thus the medium can be considered as air.

The formula for calculating drag force is as below:

               \text {Drag force }=\frac{1}{2} \rho v^{2} C_{D} A

Here, ρ is the density of the air molecules, v is the velocity or speed of the bicycle, CD is the drag coefficient and A is the area of the bicycle.

In the above equation, only the term velocity will be a varying quantity with respect to time and other quantities will remain constant throughout the single situation of riding of bicycle.

So, the equation can be,

             \text { Drag force }=k v^{2}

Where ,  

     k=\frac{1}{2} \rho C_{D} A (constant for this whole condition)

Now given the speed of bicycle increased from v to 2v, so the initial drag force will be

                   N_{i}=k v^{2}

After increase in speed, the final drag force will be  

                   N_{f}=k(2 v)^{2}

                   N_{f}=4 k v^{2}=4 N_{i}

Thus, if the speed of the bicycle is doubled, the drag force will get increased by four times.

.<br> Why are objects that fall near Earth's surface rarely in free fall?
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

Objects that fall near Earth’s surface are rarely in free fall.

"Free fall" is the situation where the ONLY force on an object is

the force of gravity, and nothing else.

Objects near Earth's surface are almost always surrounded by air.

If they are falling, then the air is exerting forces on them, and they

are not in "free fall".
