Imagine a particle that has three times the mass of the electron. All other quantities given above remain the same. What is the

ratio of the kinetic energy Kheavy that this heavy particle would have when it reaches the upper plate to the kinetic energy Ke that the electron would have? That is, what is KheavyKe? g

Answer:

The only parameter that changes is mass m

It is only necessary to calculate the ratio Eh/Ee

m_{h}=3m_{e}\\E_{h}=\frac{3m_{e}v^{2}}{2}\\E_{e}=\frac{m_{e}v^{2}}{2}\\\frac{E{h}}{E{e}}=3

The kinetic energy of the heavy paricle is three times the kinetic energy of an electron

Choose all facts that increase the orbital velocity of a vessel around planet B. Bigger mass of planet B smaller mass of planet
telo118 [61]

Answer:

- Bigger mass of planet B  

- orbiting closer to planet B

Explanation:

The orbital velocity of the vessel around the planet can be found by equalizing the force of gravity between the vessel and the planet and the centripetal force:

G\frac{mM}{r^2}=m\frac{v^2}{r}

where

G is the gravitational constant

m is the mass of the vessel

M is the mass of the planet

r is the distance between the vessel and the centre of the planet

v is the orbital velocity of the vessel

Re-arranging the formula, we find an expression for v:

v=\sqrt{\frac{GM}{r}}

We see that:

- the bigger the mass of the planet, M, the bigger the velocity

- the bigger the distance between the vessel and the planet, r, the smaller the velocity

So, the correct choices that increase the orbital velocity are:

- Bigger mass of planet B  

- orbiting closer to planet B

How long would it take to travel 10 light years at the speed of light?
Vladimir79 [104]

A light year is the DISTANCE light travels through vacuum in 1 year.

If light is traveling through vacuum, then it's traveling at the speed of light in vacuum. If a student at home at the beginning of the trip is holding the clock, then ...

Traveling 1 light year takes 1 year.

Traveling 2 light years takes 2 years.

Traveling 3 light years takes 3 years.

Traveling 10 light years takes 10 years.

If the light is traveling through some other substance, or if the clock is traveling along with the light, then these numbers all change.

YOU cannot travel at the speed of light. We have to just leave it at that

What is the magnitude of an electric field that balances the weight of a plastic sphere of mass 2.1 g that has been charged to -
Liula [17]

Answer:

Electric field, E=6.86\times 10^6\ N/C

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of sphere, m = 2.1 g = 0.0021 kg

Charge, q=-3\ nC=-3\times 10^{-9}\ C

We need to find the magnitude of electric field that balances the weight of a plastic spheres. So,

ma=qE

a = g

E=\dfrac{mg}{q}

E=\dfrac{0.0021\ kg\times 9.8\ m/s^2}{-3\times 10^{-9}\ C}

E=6860000\ N/C

or

E=6.86\times 10^6\ N/C

Hence, the magnitude of electric field that balances its weight is 6.86\times 10^6\ N/C. Hence, this is the required solution.

Answer:

Ground-state atom

Explanation:

When an atom is not excited, it is in its ground-state, which we refer as "standard" or "normal" state.
