A potted plant falls from a window sill and is gaining speed. which one of the following statements is true of the plant?

1 answer:

4 0

Since the plant is falling, the gravitational energy decreases, so it means b) kinetic energy is increasing.

Hope this helps!! :)

Consider an electron with charge −e and mass m orbiting in a circle around a hydrogen nucleus (a single proton) with charge +e.

alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

$v=\sqrt{k\frac{e^2}{m_e r}}$ , $2.18\cdot 10^6 m/s$

Explanation:

The magnitude of the electromagnetic force between the electron and the proton in the nucleus is equal to the centripetal force:

$k\frac{(e)(e)}{r^2}=m_e \frac{v^2}{r}$

where

k is the Coulomb constant

e is the magnitude of the charge of the electron

e is the magnitude of the charge of the proton in the nucleus

r is the distance between the electron and the nucleus

v is the speed of the electron

$m_e$ is the mass of the electron

Solving for v, we find

$v=\sqrt{k\frac{e^2}{m_e r}}$

Inside an atom of hydrogen, the distance between the electron and the nucleus is approximately

$r=5.3\cdot 10^{-11}m$

while the electron mass is

$m_e = 9.11\cdot 10^{-31}kg$

and the charge is

$e=1.6\cdot 10^{-19} C$

Substituting into the formula, we find

$v=\sqrt{(9\cdot 10^9 m/s) \frac{(1.6\cdot 10^{-19} C)^2}{(9.11\cdot 10^{-31} kg)(5.3\cdot 10^{-11} m)}}=2.18\cdot 10^6 m/s$
