Answer:

The  repulsive electrostatic force between two of the protons is 14.4 N.

Explanation:

Given;

distance between the two protons, r = 4 x 10⁻¹⁵ m

charge of a proton, q = + 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C

The repulsive electrostatic force between two of the protons is calculated by applying Coulomb's law;

F = \frac{k q_1 q_2 }{r^2} \\\\where;\\k \ is \ Coulomb's \ constant = 9\times 10^9 \ Nm^2/C^2 \\\\F = \frac{9\times 10^9 \  (1.6\times 10^{-19})^2}{(4 \times 10^{-15})^2} \\\\F = 14.4 \ N

Therefore, the  repulsive electrostatic force between two of the protons is 14.4 N.

A ball is thrown upwards at an unknown speed. in a time of
alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

a)  Initial speed of the ball = 14.45 m/s

b) At height 6 m speed of ball = 9.55 m/s

c) Maximum height reached = 10.65 m

Explanation:

a)  We have equation of motion s=ut+\frac{1}{2} at^2, where s is the displacement, u is the initial velocity, t is the time taken and a is the acceleration.

s = 6 m, t = 0.5 seconds, a = acceleration due to gravity value = -9.8m/s^2

 Substituting

    6=u*0.5-\frac{1}{2} *9.8*0.5^2\\ \\ u=14.45m/s

 Initial speed of the ball = 14.45 m/s

 b) We have equation of motion v^2=u^2+2as, where v is the final velocity

   s = 6 m, u = 14.45 m/s, a = -9.8m/s^2

    Substituting

        v^2=14.45^2-2*9.8*6\\ \\ v=9.55m/s

  So at height 6 m speed of ball = 9.55 m/s

c) We have equation of motion v^2=u^2+2as, where v is the final velocity

   u = 14.45 m/s, v =0 , a = -9.8m/s^2

   Substituting

     0^2=14.45^2-2*9.8*s\\ \\ s=10.65 m

  Maximum height reached = 10.65 m

Monochromatic light from a distant source is incident on a slit 0.750 mm wide. On a screen 2.00 m away, the distance from the ce
jasenka [17]

Answer:

\lambda= 506.25 nm

Explanation:

Diffraction is observed when a wave is distorted by an obstacle whose dimensions are comparable to the wavelength. The simplest case corresponds to the Fraunhofer diffraction, in which the obstacle is a long, narrow slit, so we can ignore the effects of extremes.

This is a simple case, in which we can use the Fraunhofer single slit diffraction equation:

y=\frac{m \lambda D}{a}

Where:

y=Displacement\hspace{3}from\hspace{3} the\hspace{3} centerline \hspace{3}for \hspace{3}minimum\hspace{3} intensity =1.35mm\\\lambda=Light\hspace{3} wavelength \\D=Distance\hspace{3}between\hspace{3}the\hspace{3}screen\hspace{3}and\hspace{3}the\hspace{3}slit=2m\\a=width\hspace{3}of\hspace{3}the\hspace{3}slit=0.750mm\\m=Order\hspace{3}number=1

Solving for λ:

\lambda=\frac{y*a}{mD}

Replacing the data provided by the problem:

\lambda=\frac{(1.35\times 10^{-3})*(0.750\times 10^{-3})}{1*2} =5.0625\times 10^{-7}m =506.25nm

A little girl kicks a soccer ball. It goes 10 feet and comes back to her. How is this possible?
marta [7]
A classic puzzle...

She either kicked it at a wall <em>exactly</em><em /> 10 foot in front of her, where the ball rebounded off the wall.

Or, she kicked the ball straight up, vertically, at a <em>90 degree angle,</em> where due to the law of gravity, which states that anything that goes up must come down, when the soccer ball reaches exactly 10 feet, it falls back down.
(Note: This is nearly impossible to achieve -- exactly 10 feet.)
