Answer:
Explanation:
We shall apply conservation of mechanical energy
kinetic energy of alpha particle is converted into electric potential energy.
1/2 mv² = k q₁q₂/d , d is closest distance
d = 2kq₁q₂ / mv²
= 2 x 9 x 10⁹ x 79e x 2e / 4mv²
= 1422 x2x (1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹)² x 10⁹ /4x 1.67 x 10⁻²⁷ x (1.5 x 10⁷)²
= 3640.32 x 10⁻²⁹ /2x 3.7575 x 10⁻¹³
= 484.4 x 10⁻¹⁶
=48.4 x 10⁻¹⁵ m
The carbon cycle refers to the processes by which carbon in the biosphere is recycled. Photosynthesis sucks carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere, while cellular respiration releases it into the environment. Photosynthesis is the process by which solar energy reaches a plant and is converted into glucose.
<u>How photosynthesis and cellular respiration are similar:</u>
<em>Photosynthesis</em> is a method by which plants and other organisms transform light energy into chemical energy, which is then released to fuel the organism's metabolic activities through<em> </em><em>cellular respiration.</em>
