In order to answer these questions, we need to know the charges on
the electron and proton, and then we need to know the electron's mass.
I'm beginning to get the creepy feeling that, in return for the generous
5 points, you also want me to go and look these up so I can use them
in calculations ... go and collect my own straw to make the bricks with,
as it were.
Ok, Rameses:
Elementary charge . . . . . 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ coulomb
negative on the electron
plussitive on the proton
Electron rest-mass . . . . . 9.11 x 10⁻³¹ kg
a). The force between two charges is
F = (9 x 10⁹) Q₁ Q₂ / R²
= (9 x 10⁹ m/farad) (-1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹C) (1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹C) / (5.35 x 10⁻¹¹m)²
= ( -2.304 x 10⁻²⁸) / (5.35 x 10⁻¹¹)²
= 8.05 x 10⁻⁸ Newton .
b). Centripetal acceleration =
v² / r .
A = (2.03 x 10⁶)² / (5.35 x 10⁻¹¹)
= 7.7 x 10²² m/s² .
That's an enormous acceleration ... about 7.85 x 10²¹ G's !
More than enough to cause the poor electron to lose its lunch.
It would be so easy to check this work of mine ...
First I calculated the force, then I calculated the centripetal acceleration.
I didn't use either answer to find the other one, and I didn't use " F = MA "
either.
I could just take the ' F ' that I found, and the 'A' that I found, and the
electron mass that I looked up, and mash the numbers together to see
whether F = M A .
I'm going to leave that step for you. Good luck !
Answer:
5m/s/s
Explanation:
force = mass x acceleration
50 = 10a
a=5m/s/s
Explanation:
Let us first calculate long does it take to go 12m at 30m/s( assumed speed)
12/30 = 0.4 seconds
horizontal distance the ball drop in that time
H= (0)(0.4)+1/2(-9.8)(0.4)2
H= -0.78m
negative sign shows that the height of the ball at the net from the top.
Height of the ball at the net and from the ground= H1-H=2.4-0.78=1.62m
As 1.62m>0.9m so the ball will clear the net.
H_1= V0y t’ + ½ g t’^2
-2.4= (0)t’ + ½ (-9.8) t’^2
t’= 0.69s
X’=V0x t’
X’=(30)(0.96)
X’= 20.7m
Explanation:
The first equation of motion in kinematics is given by :
.....(1)
u is initial speed
a is acceleration
v is final speed
t is time
Equation (1) is valid when the object is moving with constant acceleration. This equation gives relation between velocity and time.
