The most common isotope of hydrogen contains a proton and an electron 'separated by about -11-27 5.0 x 10 m. The mass of proton
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

A)   F_g = 4.05 10⁻⁴⁷ N, B)   F_e = 9.2 10⁻⁸N, C)    \frac{F_e}{F_g} = 2.3 10³⁹

Explanation:

A) It is asked to find the force of attraction due to the masses of the particles

Let's use the law of universal attraction

            F = G \frac{m_1m_2}{r^2}

let's calculate

            F = 6.67 \ 10^{-11} \ \frac{9.1 \ 10^{-31} \ 1.67 \ 10 ^{-27} }{(5 \ 10^{-11})^2 }

            F_g = 4.05 10⁻⁴⁷ N

B) in this part it is asked to calculate the electric force

Let's use Coulomb's law

            F = k \  \frac{q_1q_2}{r^2}

let's calculate

            F = 9 \ 10^9 \  \frac{(1.6 \ 10^{-19} )^2}{(5 \ 10^{-11})^2}

             F_e = 9.2 10⁻⁸N

C) It is asked to find the relationship between these forces

        \frac{F_e}{F_g} = \frac{9.2 \ 10^{-8} }{4.05 \ 10^{-47} }

        = 2.3 10³⁹

therefore the electric force is much greater than the gravitational force

A boy throws a ball up into the air with a speed of 8.2 m/s. The ball has a mass of 0.3 kg. How much gravitational potential ene
diamong [38]
We can use the law of conservation of energy to solve the problem.

The total mechanical energy of the system at any moment of the motion is:
E=U+K = mgh + \frac{1}{2}mv^2
where U is the potential energy and K the kinetic energy.

At the beginning of the motion, the ball starts from the ground so its altitude is h=0 and therefore its potential energy U is zero. So, the mechanical energy is just kinetic energy:
E_i = K_i =  \frac{1}{2}mv^2 =  \frac{1}{2}(0.3 kg)(8.2 m/s)^2=10.09 J

When the ball reaches the maximum altitude of its flight, it starts to go down again, so its speed at that moment is zero: v=0. So, its kinetic energy at the top is zero. So the total mechanical energy is just potential energy:
E_f = U_f
But the mechanical energy must be conserved, Ef=Ei, so we have
U_f = K_i
and so, the potential energy at the top of the flight is
U_f = K_i = 10.09 J

The coefficient of performance of a residential heat pump is 1.6. Calculate the heating effect in kJ/s this heat pump will produ
grin007 [14]

Answer:

8 KJ/ s

Explanation:

Heat pumps Transfer thermal energy through absorbing of heat that comes from cold region and then release to warmer area by utilizing external power.

The coefficient of performance known as COP provide the ratio of both heating and cooling that are supplied to required work.

✓QH=The rate at which heat is produced = ?

✓COP= Coefficient of performance of a residential heat pump = 1.6

✓ W(in)= power consumption= 5KW

QH=The rate at which heat is produced=[Coefficient of performance of a residential heat pump] × [power consumption]

= 1.6 × 5KW

=8 KJ/ s

During a supernova, the outer layers of a star are blown off and the star's core shrinks down by a factor of 10,000 or more to f
Lana71 [14]

Answer:

a. the core will spin faster.

Explanation:

By law of conservation of angular momentum

(mvR)i= (mvR)f

m= mass of star

v= speed of star

R= radius of star

i= initial

f= final

since, size(R) of the star is reduced by factor of 10,000 and mass remains the same, the velocity must increase by the same factor to keep the angular momentum conserved.

Hence, a. the core will spin faster.

Zamir and Talia raced through a maze. Zamir walked 2 m north, 2 m east, 4 m south, 2 m east, 4 m north, 2 m east, 3 m south, 4 m
Alja [10]

Answer : Zamir's displacement and Talia's displacement is equal.

Explanation :

Displacement is explained to be the changing position of an object.

Zamir covers total distance 27 m and Talia covers total distance 19 m but  Zamir's initial and final position and Talia's initial and final position is same.

So, we can say that Zamir's displacement and Talia's displacement is equal.
