The change in electric potential energy of the ion is equal to the charge multiplied by the voltage difference:
where the charge q of the na+ ion is equal to one positive charge, so it's equal to the proton charge:
, and Vf and Vi are the final and initial voltages.
Substituting the numbers, we find:
where the charge q of the na+ ion is equal to one positive charge, so it's equal to the proton charge:
Substituting the numbers, we find:
Answer:
At the closest point
Explanation:
We can simply answer this question by applying Kepler's 2nd law of planetary motion.
It states that:
"A line connecting the center of the Sun to any other object orbiting around it (e.g. a comet) sweeps out equal areas in equal time intervals"
In this problem, we have a comet orbiting around the Sun:
- Its closest distance from the Sun is 0.6 AU
- Its farthest distance from the Sun is 35 AU
In order for Kepler's 2nd law to be valid, the line connecting the center of the Sun to the comet must move slower when the comet is farther away (because the area swept out is proportional to the product of the distance and of the velocity: , therefore if r is larger, then v (velocity) must be lower).
On the other hand, when the the comet is closer to the Sun the line must move faster (, if r is smaller, v must be higher). Therefore, the comet's orbital velocity will be the largest at the closest distance to the Sun, 0.6 A.
