A proton has been accelerated from rest through a potential difference of -1350 V. What is the proton's kinetic energy, in elect
Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

1 eV = 1.60 * 10^-19 J      work done in accelerating electron thru 1 V

KE (total energy) = 1350 ^ 1 eV     (note proton goes from +  to -)

KE = 1.60 * 10^-19 * 1350 = 2.16 * 10^-16 Joules

1/2 m v^2 = KE = 2.16 * 10^-16 J

v^2 = 4.32 * 10E-16 / 1.67 * 10-27 = 2.59 * 10^11

v = 5.09 * 10^5 m/s

Jupiter's moon Io has active volcanoes (in fact, it is the most volcanically active body in the solar system) that eject materia
Anton [14]

Answer:

91.64 km

91.64 km high material would go on earth if it were ejected with the same speed as on Io.

Explanation:

According to Newton Law of gravitation:

g=\frac{Gm}{r^2}

Where:

G is gravitational constant=6.67*10^{-11} m^3/kg.s^2

For Moon lo g is:

g_M=\frac{6.67*10^{-11}*8.93*10^{22}}{(1821*10^3)^2m^2} \\g_M=1.7962 m/s^2

According to law of conservation of energy

Initial Energy=Final Energy

K.E_i+mgh_i=K.E_f+mgh_f

\frac{1}{2}m(v_0)^2+mgh_o= \frac{1}{2}m(v_f)^2+mgh_f\\At\ maximum\ height\ v_f=0\\\frac{1}{2}m(v_0)^2+0=mgh_f\\v_0=\sqrt{2gh_f}

For Jupiter's moon Io:

Velocity is given by:

v_0_M=\sqrt{2g_Mh_f_M}

For Earth Velocity is given by:

v_0_E=\sqrt{2g_Eh_f_E}

Now:

v_o_M=v_o_E

\sqrt{2g_Mh_f_M}=\sqrt{2g_Eh_f_E}\\h_f_E=\frac{g_Mh_f_M}{g_E}

g_E=9.8 m/s^2

g_m=1.7962 m/s^2, As\ Calculated\ above

h_f_E=\frac{1.7962*500*10^3m}{9.8} \\h_f_E=91642.85 m\\h_f_E=91.64Km

91.64 km high material would go on earth if it were ejected with the same speed as on Io.

konstantin123 [22]
Each successive graph is at a later time. You can see from these graphs how the amplitude of the total electric field changes, but the positions of the crests and troughs (called antinodes) and places of zero field (called nodes) never change.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
