Newton's 2nd law:
Fnet = ma
Fnet is the net force acting on an object, m is the object's mass, and a is the acceleration.
The electric force on a charged object is given by
Fe = Eq
Fe is the electric force, E is the electric field at the point where the object is, and q is the object's charge.
We can assume, if the only force acting on the proton and electron is the electric force due to the electric field, that for both particles, Fnet = Fe
Fe = Eq
Eq = ma
a = Eq/m
We will also assume that the electric field acting on the proton and electron are the same. The proton and electron also have the same magnitude of charge (1.6×10⁻¹⁹C). What makes the difference in their acceleration is their masses. A quick Google search will provide the following values:
mass of proton = 1.67×10⁻²⁷kg
mass of electron = 9.11×10⁻³¹kg
The acceleration of an object is inversely proportional to its mass, so the electron will experience a greater acceleration than the proton.
Answer:
the rocks are away from cracks in the crust
Explanation:
The new crust is pushed away from the Ocean Ridge in both directions as newer crust is formed. This is called sea floor spreading. The crust that makes up the sea floor starts to have time to accumulate a layer of sediments as it gets older and moves away from the Ocean Ridge.
Answer:
The turning effect of a force is known as the moment. It is the product of the force multiplied by the perpendicular distance from the line of action of the force to the pivot or point where the object will turn. When undoing a nut fastened to a screw by hand one realises that the amount of force required is a lot greater than when undoing the same nut using a spanner.
Explanation:
The answer is (D) Fluorite
