Answer:

Acceleration, $a=3.6\times 10^{16}\ m/s^2$

Explanation:

It is given that, two isolated protons are separated by 2 nm. The force due to charged particles is given by :

$F_e=\dfrac{kq^2}{d^2}$

Force due to mass of proton, $F_g=ma$

$ma=\dfrac{kq^2}{d^2}$

$a=\dfrac{kq^2}{md^2}$

$a=\dfrac{9\times 10^9\times (1.6\times 10^{-19})^2}{1.6\times 10^{-27}\times (2\times 10^{-9})^2}$

$a=3.6\times 10^{16}\ m/s^2$

So, the acceleration of two isolated protons is $3.6\times 10^{16}\ m/s^2$ . Hence, this is the required solution.

elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

Technician A only

Explanation:

Both high-side pressures and low-side pressures are low with the engine running and the selector set to the air-conditioning position. Technician A says that the system is undercharged. Technician B says the cooling fan could be inoperative. Which technician is correct?

usually . An overcharged system will result in lower than normal low side pressures

An undercharged system will not enable the compressor to create pressure. As a result of the low amount of refrigerant, the cooling ability is reduced. When we say undercharged, we mean the refrigerant in the system is low, so the both the high side pressures and low side pressures will be low.

A 42.0-kg parachutist is moving straight downward with a speed of 3.85 m/s. (a) If the parachutist comes to rest with constant a

RideAnS [48]

Answer:

-414.96 N

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration

$v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2s}\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{0^2-3.85^2}{2\times 0.75}\\\Rightarrow a=-9.88\ m/s^2$

$F=ma\\\Rightarrow F=42\times -9.88\\\Rightarrow F=-414.96\ N$

The force the ground exerts on the parachutist is -414.96 N

If the distance is shorter than 0.75 m then the acceleration will increase causing the force to increase

20.0 moles, 1840 g, of a nonvolatile solute, C 3H 8O 3 is added to a flask with an unknown amount of water and stirred. The solu

Anastasy [175]

Answer:

0.144 kg of water

Explanation:

From Raoult's law,

Mole fraction of solvent = vapor pressure of solution ÷ vapor pressure of solvent = 423 mmHg ÷ 528.8 mmHg = 0.8

Let the moles of solvent (water) be y

Moles of solute (C3H8O3) = 2 mole

Total moles of solution = moles of solvent + moles of solute = (y + 2) mol

Mole fraction of solvent = moles of solvent/total moles of solution

0.8 = y/(y + 2)

y = 0.8(y + 2)

y = 0.8y + 1.6

y - 0.8y = 1.6

0.2y = 1.6

y = 1.6/0.2 = 8

Moles of solvent (water) = 8 mol

Mass of water = moles of water × MW = 8 mol × 18 g/mol = 144 g = 144/1000 = 0.144 kg

You plan to take a trip to the moon. Since you do not have a traditional spaceship with rockets, you will need to leave the eart

hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

$v = 3.5 \times 10^5 m/s$

Explanation:

At some distance from the Earth the force of attraction due to moon is balanced by the force due to Moon

so we will have

$\frac{GM_em}{r^2} = \frac{GM_m}{(d-r)^2}$

now we have

$\frac{d - r}{r} = \sqrt{\frac{M_m}{M_e}}$

$\frac{3.844\times 10^8 - r}{r} = \sqrt{\frac{7.36 \times 10^{22}}{5.9742\times 10^{24}}}$

so we will have

$r = 3.46 \times 10^8 m$

Now by energy conservation

$-\frac{GM_e}{R_e} - \frac{GM_m}{d - (R_e + R_m)} + \frac{1}{2}v^2 = -\frac{GM_e}{r} - \frac{GM_m}{d - r}$

$-6.26 \times 10^{8} - 13046 + \frac{1}{2}v^2 = -1.15 \times 10^6 - 1.28 \times 10^5$

$v = 3.5 \times 10^5 m/s$

A water tower is a familiar sight in many towns. The purpose of such a tower is to provide storage capacity and to provide suffi

Mademuasel [1]

The image of the water tower and the houses is in the attachment.

Answer: (a) P = 245kPa;

(b) P = 173.5 kPa

Explanation: <u>Gauge</u> <u>pressure</u> is the pressure relative to the atmospheric pressure and it is only dependent of the height of the liquid in the container.

The pressure is calculated as: P = hρg

where

ρ is the density of the liquid, in this case, water, which is ρ = 1000kg/m³;

When it is full the reservoir contains 5.25×10⁵ kg. So, knowing the density, you know the volume:

ρ = $\frac{m}{V}$

V = ρ/m

V = $\frac{5.25.10^{5}}{10^{3}}$

V = 525 m³

To know the height of the spherical reservoir, its diameter is needed and to determine it, find the radius:

V = $\frac{4}{3}.\pi.r^{3}$

$r = \sqrt[3]{ \frac{3}{4\pi } .V}$

r = $\sqrt[3]{\frac{525.3}{4\pi } }$

r = 5.005 m

diameter = 2*r = 10.01m

(a) Height for House A:

h = 15 + 10.01

h = 25.01

P = hρg

P = 25.01.10³.9.8

P = 245.10³ Pa or 245kPa

(b) h = 25 - 7.3

h = 17.71

P = hρg

P = 17.71.1000.9.8

P = 173.5.10³ Pa or 173.5 kPa
