As speed (velocity) increases, potential energy increases true or false

A cartoon shows two friends watching an unoccupied car in free fall after it has rolled off a diff. One friend says to the other

olga55 [171]

Answer:

The statement is not correct.

Explanation:

To know if the statement is correct, we shall determine the velocity of the car after 3 s. This is illustrated below.

Data obtained from the question include:

Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Time (t) = 3 s

Final velocity (v) =?

v = u + gt

v = 0 + (9.8 × 3)

v = 0 + 29.4

v = 29.4 m/s

Thus, the velocity of the car after 3 s is 29.4 m/s.

Hence, the statement made by the friend is not correct as the car has a falling velocity of 29.4 m/s after 3 s.

A proton and an alpha particle are momentarily at rest at adistance r from each other. They then begin to move apart.Find the sp

Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

The unknown quantities are:

E and F

The final velocity of the proton is:

√(8/3) k e^2/(m*r)

Explanation:

Hello!

We can solve this problem using conservation of energy and momentum.

Since both particles are at rest at the beginning, the initial energy and momentum are:

Ei = k (q1q2)/r

pi = 0

where k is the coulomb constant (= 8.987×10⁹ N·m²/C²)

and q1 = e and q2 = 2e

When the distance between the particles doubles, the energy and momentum are:

Ef = k (q1q2)/2r + (1/2)m1v1^2 + (1/2)m2v2^2

pf = m1v1 + m2v2

with m1 = m, m2 = 4m, v1=vf_p, v2 = vf_alpha

The conservation momentum states that:

pi = pf

Therefore:

m1v1 + m2v2 = 0

That is:

v2 = (1/4) v1

The conservation of energy states that:

Ei = Ef

Therefore:

k (q1q2)/r = k (q1q2)/2r + (1/2)m1v1^2 + (1/2)m2v2^2

Replacing

m1 = m, m2 = 4m, q1 = e, q2 = 2e

and v2 = (1/4)v1

We get:

(1/2)mv1^2 = k e^2/r + (1/2)4m(v1/4)^2 = k e^2/r + (1/8)mv1^2

(3/8) mv1^2 = k e^2/r

v1^2 = (8/3) k e^2/(m*r)

The lanthanides are all radioactive true or false

Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

All the lanthanides are not radioactive in nature. Just one of the lanthanides are radioactive.

The lanthanides belong to the f-block on the periodic table
Only Promethium in this group are radioactive in nature.
Other elements in the lanthanide series might have radioactive isotopes.

Two 4.3546 cm x 4.3546 cm square aluminum electrodes, spaced 0.6408 mm apart are connected to a 73.68 V battery. What is the cap

Helen [10]

Answer:

Capacitance, C = 26.1 picofarad

Explanation:

It is given that,

Side of square, x = 4.3546 cm = 0.043546 m

Distance between electrodes, d = 0.6408 mm = 0.0006408 m

Voltage, V = 73.68 V

Capacitance of parallel plates is given by :

$C=\dfrac{\epsilon_oA}{d}$

$C=\dfrac{8.85\times 10^{-12}\times (0.043546)^2}{0.0006408}$

$C=2.61\times 10^{-11}\ F$

or

C = 26.1 picofarad

So, the capacitance of the capacitor is 26.1 picofarad. Hence, this is the required solution.
