Answer:

The temperature of an object increases when the molecules that make up that object move faster. Thermal energy is energy possessed by an object or system due to the movement of particles within the object or the system.

In a Hydrogen atom an electron rotates around a stationary proton in a circular orbit with an approximate radius of r =0.053nm.
leonid [27]

Answer:

(a): F_e = 8.202\times 10^{-8}\ \rm N.

(b): F_g = 3.6125\times 10^{-47}\ \rm N.

(c): \dfrac{F_e}{F_g}=2.27\times 10^{39}.

Explanation:

Given that an electron revolves around the hydrogen atom in a circular orbit of radius r = 0.053 nm = 0.053\times 10^{-9} m.

Part (a):

According to Coulomb's law, the magnitude of the electrostatic force of interaction between two charged particles of charges q_1 and q_2 respectively is given by

F_e = \dfrac{k|q_1||q_2|}{r^2}

where,

  • k = Coulomb's constant = 9\times 10^9\ \rm Nm^2/C^2.
  • r = distance of separation between the charges.

For the given system,

The Hydrogen atom consists of a single proton, therefore, the charge on the Hydrogen atom, q_1 = +1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C.

The charge on the electron, q_2 = -1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C.

These two are separated by the distance, r = 0.053\times 10^{-9}\ m.

Thus, the magnitude of the electrostatic force of attraction between the electron and the proton is given by

F_e = \dfrac{(9\times 10^9)\times |+1.6\times 10^{-19}|\times |-1.6\times 10^{-19}|}{(0.053\times 10^{-9})^2}=8.202\times 10^{-8}\ \rm N.

Part (b):

The gravitational force of attraction between two objects of masses m_1 and m_1 respectively is given by

F_g = \dfrac{Gm_1m_2}{r^2}.

where,

  • G = Universal Gravitational constant = 6.67\times 10^{-11}\ \rm Nm^2/kg^2.
  • r = distance of separation between the masses.

For the given system,

The mass of proton, m_1 = 1.67\times 10^{-27}\ kg.

The mass of the electron, m_2 = 9.11\times 10^{-31}\ kg.

Distance between the two, r = 0.053\times 10^{-9}\ m.

Thus, the magnitude of the gravitational force of attraction between the electron and the proton is given by

F_g = \dfrac{(6.67\times 10^{-11})\times (1.67\times 10^{-27})\times (9.11\times 10^{-31})}{(0.053\times 10^{-9})^2}=3.6125\times 10^{-47}\ \rm N.

The ratio \dfrac{F_e}{F_g}:

\dfrac{F_e}{F_g}=\dfrac{8.202\times 10^{-8}}{3.6125\times 10^{-47}}=2.27\times 10^{39}.

You need to design a 60.0-Hz ac generator that has a maximum emf of 5200 V. The generator is to contain a 130-turn coil that has
dimaraw [331]

Answer:

B =  0.129 T

Explanation:

Given,

frequency, f = 60 Hz

maximum  emf = 5200 V

Number of turns, N = 130

Area per turn = 0.82 m²

We know,

ω = 2 π f

ω = 2 π x 60 = 376.99 rad/s

now, Magnetic field calculation

B =\dfrac{\epsilon_{max}}{NA\omega}

B =\dfrac{5200}{130\times 0.82\times 376.99}

B =  0.129 T

Hence, the magnetic field is equal to B =  0.129 T
