Two electrons, each with mass mmm and charge qqq, are released from positions very far from each other. With respect to a certai

n reference frame, electron A has initial nonzero speed vvv toward electron B in the positive x direction, and electron B has initial speed 3v3v toward electron A in the negative x direction. The electrons move directly toward each other along the x axis (very hard to do with real electrons). As the electrons approach each other, they slow due to their electric repulsion. This repulsion eventually pushes them away from each other.
What is the minimum separation r_min that the electrons reach?

Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

e. Not enough information to determine

Explanation:

This question is incomplete. Here is the complete question with my solution afterwards;

A ladybug sits at the outer edge of a turntable, and a gentleman bug sits halfway between her and the axis of rotation. The turntable (initially at rest) begins to rotate with its rate of rotation constantly increasing.

What is the first event that will occur?(Assume non-zero frictional force and the same coefficients of friction for both bugs.)

a. The ladybug begins to slide

b. The gentleman bug begins to slide

c. Both bugs begin to slide at the same time

d. Nothing ever happens

e. Not enough information to determine

The centripetal force acting on a rotating body or bugs can be written as,

F=mrw^2

m= mass of the corresponding bugs

r= corresponding radial distance of each bug

w= angular speed of the turntable

The centripetal force tries to slide the bugs in an outward direction and it is directly proportional to the products of its mass and radial distance from the axis of rotation of the turntable

F ∝ mr

Since the radial distance from the axis of rotation of the turntable for each bug is given, but the mass is not given, the given information is therefore not enough to determine which bugs will slide first.

Option "e" is correct.

1. A2 .7-kg copper block is given an initial speed of 4.0m/s on a rough horizontal surface. Because of friction, the block final
tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

A. Increase in temperature is 0.0176 degree Celsius. b. the remaining energy will be lost.

Explanation:

The mass of copper block = 7kg

Initial speed = 4.0 m/s

Specific heat of copper = 0.385 j/g degree Celcius.

a. The increase in temperature is calculated below:

\text{Change in kinetic energy} = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2} \\=  \frac{1}{2} \times 2.7 \times 4^{2} = 21.6 J \\

85% of energy is converted into internal energy.

mc\DeltaT = 21.6 \times 0.85 \\2.7 \times 385 \times \Delta T = 21.6 \times 0.85 \\\Delta T = 0.0176 degree \ celsius

b. The remaining  15 per cent of kinetic energy will be lost and it will be changed into other forms.
