Suppose you wanted to hold up an electron against the force of gravity by the attraction of a fixed proton some distance above i

SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

The value is $r = 5.077 \ m$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The Coulomb constant is $k = 9.0 *10^{9} \ N\cdot m^2 /C^2$

The charge on the electron/proton is $e = 1.6*10^{-19} \ C$

The mass of proton $m_{proton} = 1.67*10^{-27} \ kg$

The mass of electron is $m_{electron } = 9.11 *10^{-31} \ kg$

Generally for the electron to be held up by the force gravity

Then

Electric force on the electron = The gravitational Force

i.e

$m_{electron} * g = \frac{ k * e^2 }{r^2 }$

$\frac{9*10^9 * (1.60 *10^{-19})^2 }{r^2 } = 9.11 *10^{-31 } * 9.81$

$r = \sqrt{25.78}$

$r = 5.077 \ m$

A stretched spring has 5184 J of elastic potential energy and a spring constant of 16,200 N/m. What is the displacement of the s

Bezzdna [24]

Hello!

A stretched spring has 5184 J of elastic potential energy and a spring constant of 16,200 N/m. What is the displacement of the spring?

0.57 m

0.64 m

0.80 m

1.25 m

Data:

$E_{pe}\:(elastic\:potential\:energy) = 5184\:J$

$K\:(constant) = 16200\:N/m$

$x\:(displacement) =\:?$

For a spring (or an elastic), the elastic potential energy is calculated by the following expression:

$E_{pe} = \dfrac{k*x^2}{2}$

Where k represents the elastic constant of the spring (or elastic) and x the deformation or displacement suffered by the spring.

Solving:

$E_{pe} = \dfrac{k*x^2}{2}$

$5184 = \dfrac{16200*x^2}{2}$

$5184*2 = 16200*x^2$

$10368 = 16200\:x^2$

$16200\:x^2 = 10368$

$x^{2} = \dfrac{10368}{16200}$

$x^{2} = 0.64$

$x = \sqrt{0.64}$

$\boxed{\boxed{x = 0.8\:m}}\end{array}}\qquad\checkmark$

Answer:

The displacement of the spring = 0.8 m (or 0.80 m)

The late news reports the story of a shooting in the city. Investigators think that they have recovered the weapon and they run

Gemiola [76]

Answer:

50000 N

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Mass (m) of bullet = 0.050 kg

velocity (v) = 400 m/s

Distance (s) = 0.080 m

Force (F) =?

Next, we shall determine the acceleration of the bullet. This can be obtained as follow:

Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s

Final velocity (v) = 400 m/s

Distance (s) = 0.080 m

Acceleration (a) =?

v² = u² + 2as

400² = 0 + (2 × a × 0.08)

160000 = 0 + 0.16a

160000 = 0.16a

Divide both side by 0.16

a = 160000 / 0.16

a = 1×10⁶ m/s²

Finally, we shall determine the force exerted by the bullet on the target. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass (m) of bullet = 0.050 kg

Acceleration (a) of bullet = 1×10⁶ m/s²

Force (F) =?

F = ma

F = 0.050 × 1×10⁶

F = 50000 N

Thus, the bullet exerted a force of 50000 N on the target.

A certain resistor dissipates 0.5 W when connected to a 3 V potential difference. When connected to a 1 V potential difference,

Stels [109]

Answer:

<h2>0.056 W</h2>

Explanation:

$Power = IV$

From ohms law we know that

$V= IR\\\\I= \frac{V}{R} \\\\Power= \frac{V}{R}*V\\\\Power= \frac{V^2}{R}$

Given data

P1 = 0.5 Watt

P2 = ?

V1= 3 Volts

V2= 1 Volt

Thus we can solve for the power dissipated as follows

$P1= \frac{V1^2}{R1}\\\\P2= \frac{V2^2}{R2}$

$\frac{P1}{P2} = \frac{V1^2}{V2^2}\\\\ P2=\frac{ V2^2}{ V1^2} *P1\\\\ P2=\frac{ 1^2}{ 3^2} *0.5= 0.055= 0.056 W$

<em>The resistor will dissipate 0.056 Watt</em>
