The potential difference between the plates of a capacitor is 145 V. Midway between the plates, a proton and an electron are rel
aniked [119]

Answer:

= 2.52 x 10^ 6 m/s        

Explanation:

The force that acts on charged particles between capacitor plates =

F = (q) (Δv)  ÷ d

Here,  d = distance between the two plates

          q = charge of the charged particle

         Δv = voltage

Normally, the force that makes both proton and electron released from rest, giving the charge acceleration is F=m X a. where m= mass and a = acceleration

Poting this equation with the first one, we have:

m X a =  (q) (Δv)  ÷ d

So, the acceleration of a proton when moving towards a negatively charged plate is

a = (q) (Δv)  ÷ (d) (m) {proton}

Likewise, the acceleration of an electron when moving towards a positively charged plate is

a = (q) (Δv)  ÷ (d) (m) {electron}

Dividing the proton acceleration formula by the electron acceleration formula we have:

a (proton) / a (electron) = m (proton) / m(electron)

inserting equation of motion to get distance, s

s = ut + 1/2 at^2

recall that electron travel distance, d/2

d/2 = 1/2 at^2

making t the subject of the formula

we have, t =√(d ÷ a(electron))

The distance of proton:

d/2 =  ut + 1/2 at^2 [proton}

put d/2 =  ut + 1/2 at^2 [proton} into t =√(d ÷ a(electron))

Initial speed, ui = √(d ÷ a(electron)) = (d/2) - (1/2) x (d) (a(proton) + a(electron))

since acceleration wasn't given in the question, lets use mass(elect

ron)  ÷ mass(proton) rather than use (a(proton) + a(electron))

Therefore, intial speed= 1/2√((e X Δv) ÷ m(electron)) (1- m(electron)/ m(proton))

   Note, e = 1.60 x 10^-19

           m(electron) = 9.11 X 10^-31

            m(proton) = 1.67  X 10^-27

Input these values into the formula above, initial speed, UI =  

           = 2.52 x 10^ 6 m/s

Is an atom with one valence electron more reactive than an atom with two electrone? ​
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

An atom with a closed shell of valence electrons (corresponding to an electron configuration s2p6) tends to be chemically inert. An atom with one or two valence electrons more than a closed shell is highly reactive, because the extra valence electrons are easily removed to form a positive ion.Explanation:

J.J. Thomson theorized that, if an atom had all of its negatively charged
Bumek [7]

Answer:

C. Positively charged

Explanation:

The plum pudding model of the atom proposes by J. J. Thomson consisted of electrons which lay embedded as the raisins within a dough or soup that was positively charged. The electron was discovered by J. J. Thomson in 1897 through cathode ray tube experiments.

Based on the plum pudding model, if all the negatively charge electrons contained in an atom are removed, the material remaining will be the <em>positively charged</em> soup

A solid circular disk has a mass of 1.2 kg and a radius of 0.16m. Each of three identical thin rods has a mass of 0.16kg. The ro
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

0.027648 kgm²

Explanation:

M = Mass of disc = 1.2 kg

r = Radius of disc = 0.16 m

m = Mass of rod = 0.16 kg

R = Rod distance = 0.16 m

Moment of inertia of disk is given by

I_1=\dfrac{1}{2}Mr^2\\\Rightarrow I_1=\dfrac{1}{2}1.2\times 0.16^2\\\Rightarrow I_1=0.01536\ kgm^2

Moment of inertia of the three rods

I_2=3mr^2\\\Rightarrow I_2=3\times 0.16\times 0.16^2\\\Rightarrow I_2=0.012288\ kgm^2

The total moment of inertia is given by

I=I_1+I_2=0.01536+0.012288\\\Rightarrow I=0.027648\ kgm^2

The moment of inertia of the stool with respect to an axis that is perpendicular to the plane of the disk at its center is 0.027648 kgm²
