Bezzdna [24]

Answer with Explanation:

We are given that

$r=0.053 nm=0.053\times 10^{-9} m$

$1 nm=10^{-9} m$

Charge on proton,q= $1.6\times 10^{-19} C$

a.We have to find the electric potential of the proton at the position of the electron.

We know that the electric potential

$V=\frac{kq}{r}$

Where $k=9\times 10^9$

$V=\frac{9\times 10^9\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}}{0.053\times 10^{-9}}$

$V=27.17 V$

B.Potential energy of electron,U= $\frac{kq_e q_p}{r}$

Where

$q_e=-1.6\times 10^{-19} c=$ Charge on electron

$q_p=q=1.6\times 10^{-19} C$ =Charge on proton

Using the formula

$U=\frac{9\times 10^9\times (-1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}}{0.053\times 10^{-9}}$

$U=-4.35\times 10^{-18} J$

A long-distance swimmer is able to swim through still water at 4.0 km/h. She wishes to try to swim from Port Angeles, Washington

Roman55 [17]

Let $\theta$ be the direction the swimmer must swim relative to east. Then her velocity relative to the water is

$\vec v_{S/W}=\left(4.0\dfrac{\rm km}{\rm h}\right)(\cos\theta\,\vec\imath+\sin\theta\,\vec\jmath)$

The current has velocity vector (relative to the Earth)

$\vec v_{W/E}=\left(3.0\dfrac{\rm km}{\rm h}\right)\,\vec\imath$

The swimmer's resultant velocity (her velocity relative to the Earth) is then

$\vec v_{S/E}=\vec v_{S/W}+\vec v_{W/E}$

$\vec v_{S/E}=\left(\left(4.0\dfrac{\rm km}{\rm h}\right)\cos\theta+3.0\dfrac{\rm km}{\rm h}\right)\,\vec\imath+\left(4.0\dfrac{\rm km}{\rm h}\right)\sin\theta\,\vec\jmath$

We want the resultant vector to be pointing straight north, which means its horizontal component must be 0:

$\left(4.0\dfrac{\rm km}{\rm h}\right)\cos\theta+3.0\dfrac{\rm km}{\rm h}=0\implies\cos\theta=-\dfrac{3.0}{4.0}\implies\theta\approx138.59^\circ$

which is approximately 41º west of north.

a block of mass m slides along a frictionless track with speed vm. It collides with a stationary block of mass M. Find an expres

shusha [124]

Answer:

Part a) When collision is perfectly inelastic

$v_m = \frac{m + M}{m} \sqrt{5Rg}$

Part b) When collision is perfectly elastic

$v_m = \frac{m + M}{2m}\sqrt{5Rg}$

Explanation:

Part a)

As we know that collision is perfectly inelastic

so here we will have

$mv_m = (m + M)v$

so we have

$v = \frac{mv_m}{m + M}$

now we know that in order to complete the circle we will have

$v = \sqrt{5Rg}$

$\frac{mv_m}{m + M} = \sqrt{5Rg}$

now we have

$v_m = \frac{m + M}{m} \sqrt{5Rg}$

Part b)

Now we know that collision is perfectly elastic

so we will have

$v = \frac{2mv_m}{m + M}$

now we have

$\sqrt{5Rg} = \frac{2mv_m}{m + M}$

$v_m = \frac{m + M}{2m}\sqrt{5Rg}$
