Answer: (b)

Explanation:

Given

Mass of box $m=17\ kg$

Applied force $F=175\ N$

Friction force $f=-125\ N$

Box travels a distance of $s=15\ m$

time taken $t=5.25\ s$

Net unbalanced force $F_{net}=175-125=50\ N$

Work done by the unbalanced force

$\Rightarrow W=F_{un}\cdot s\\\Rightarrow W=50\times 15\\\Rightarrow W=750\ N$

Power developed by unbalanced force

$\Rightarrow P=\dfrac{W}{t}\\\\\Rightarrow P=\dfrac{750}{5.25}\\\\\Rightarrow P=142.85\approx 1423\ W$

Thus, option (b) is correct.

A proton has a speed of 3.50 Ã 105 m/s when at a point where the potential is +100 V. Later, itâs at a point where the potential

ruslelena [56]

Answer:

(a). The change in the protons electric potential is 0.639 kV.

(b). The change in the potential energy of the proton is $1.022\times10^{-16}\ J$

(c). The work done on the proton is $-8\times10^{-18}\ J$ .

Explanation:

Given that,

Speed $v= 3.50\times10^{5}\ m/s$

Initial potential V=100 V

Final potential = 150 V

(a). We need to calculate the change in the protons electric potential

Potential energy of the proton is

$U=qV=eV$

Using conservation of energy

$K_{i}+U_{i}=K_{f}+U_{f}$

$\dfrac{1}{2}mv_{i}^2+eV_{i}=\dfrac{1}{2}mv_{f}^2+eV_{f}$

$]\dfrac{1}{2}mv_{i}^2-]\dfrac{1}{2}mv_{f}^2=e(V_{f}-V_{i})$

$\dfrac{1}{2}mv_{i}^2-]\dfrac{1}{2}mv_{f}^2=e\Delta V$

$\Delta V=\dfrac{m(v_{i}^2-v_{f}^2)}{2e}$

Put the value into the formula

$\Delta V=\dfrac{1.67\times10^{-27}(3.50\times10^{5}-0)^2}{2\times1.6\times10^{-19}}$

$\Delta V=639.2=0.639\ kV$

(b). We need to calculate the change in the potential energy of the proton

Using formula of potential energy

$\Delta U=q\Delta V$

Put the value into the formula

$\Delta U=1.6\times10^{-19}\times639.2$

$\Delta U=1.022\times10^{-16}\ J$

(c). We need to calculate the work done on the proton

Using formula of work done

$\Delta U=-W$

$W=q(V_{2}-V_{1})$

$W=-1.6\times10^{-19}(150-100)$

$W=-8\times10^{-18}\ J$

Hence, (a). The change in the protons electric potential is 0.639 kV.

(b). The change in the potential energy of the proton is $1.022\times10^{-16}\ J$

(c). The work done on the proton is $-8\times10^{-18}\ J$ .

Which of the following terms best describes a group of thousand galaxies?

Ivahew [28]

Hey there! :D

Cluster- a group of stars or galaxies forming a relatively close association.

<span>Constellation- A group of stars that makes a shape, and has a name that is well known.
</span>
<span /><span>Solar system- a system of planets revolving around a center, or sun.
</span>
Universe- the whole wide range of galaxies, stars, and solar systems that were ever formed.

The best answer would be "Cluster" because the universe is infinite, they are millions of galaxies, solar systems, and constellations in it. The question only states 'a thousand galaxies'. This is of one kind. This best works for the question.

I hope this helps!
