We are given a mercury atom in the ground state which absorbs 20 eV of energy. It is then ionized by losing an electron. We need to calculate the kinetic energy that the electron has after ionization.

The initial energy is 20 eV = 20 J/C
The electron charge is = 1.60217662 × 10-19<span> coulombs

To determine the kinetic energy, we can use this equation:

KE = 20 Joules / Coulombs * </span>1.60217662 × 10-19<span> coulombs 
KE = 1.25x10^20 Joules 

Therefore, the amount of kinetic energy that the electron has after ionization is </span>1.25x10^20 Joules or 1.25x10^17 kJ. <span />

Newton's third law says:

So, the force that Tom does on the sister is equal to force the sister applies on Tom:

From Newton's second law, we also know

Nady [450]

Answer:

a)   W_total = 8240 J , b)  W₁ / W₂ = 1.1

Explanation:

In this exercise you are asked to calculate the work that is defined by

       W = F. dy

As the container is rising and the force is vertical the scalar product is reduced to the algebraic product.

       W = F dy = F Δy

let's apply this formula to our case

a) Let's use Newton's second law to calculate the force in the first y = 5 m

          F - W = m a

          W = mg

          F = m (a + g)

          F = 80 (1 + 9.8)

          F = 864 N

The work of this force we will call it W1

   We look for the force for the final 5 m, since the speed is constant the force must be equal to the weight (a = 0)

        F₂ - W = 0

        F₂ = W

        F₂ = 80 9.8

        F₂ = 784 N

The work of this fura we will call them W2

The total work is

         W_total = W₁ + W₂

         W_total = (F + F₂) y

         W_total = (864 + 784) 5

         W_total = 8240 J

b) To find the relationship between work with relate (W1) and work with constant speed (W2), let's use

        W₁ / W₂ = F y / F₂ y

        W₁ / W₂ = 864/784

        W₁ / W₂ = 1.1

A uniform piece of wire, 20 cm long, is bent in a right angle in the center to give it an L-shape. How far from the bend is the
zlopas [31]

Answer:

the center of mass is 7.07 cm apart from the bend

Explanation:

the centre of mass of a wire of length L is L/2 ( assuming uniform density). Then initially the x coordinate of the centre of mass is

x₁ = L/2 = 20 cm /2 = 10 cm

when the wire is bent in a right angle the coordinates of the new centre of mass will be

x₂ = L₂/2

y₂=  L₂/2

where L₂ is the length of the horizontal piece and vertical piece . Then L₂=L/2

x₂ = L₂/2 = L/4 = 20 cm/4 = 5 cm

y₂= L₂/2 = L/4 = 20 cm/4 = 5 cm

x₂=y₂=X

locating the bend in the origin (0,0) the distance to the centre of mass is

d = √(x₂²+y₂²) = √(2X²) = √2*X=√2*5cm = 7.07 cm

d = 7.07 cm

A charge q = 3 × 10-6 C of mass m = 2 × 10-6 kg, and speed v = 5 × 106 m/s enters a uniform magnetic field. The mass experiences
NeX [460]

Answer:

Magnetic field, B = 0.004 mT

Explanation:

It is given that,

Charge, q=3\times 10^{-6}\ C

Mass of charge particle, m=2\times 10^{-6}\ C

Speed, v=5\times 10^{6}\ m/s

Acceleration, a=3\times 10^{4}\ m/s^2

We need to find the minimum magnetic field that would produce such an acceleration. So,

ma=qvB\ sin\theta

For minimum magnetic field,

ma=qvB

B=\dfrac{ma}{qv}

B=\dfrac{2\times 10^{-6}\ C\times 3\times 10^{4}\ m/s^2}{3\times 10^{-6}\ C\times 5\times 10^{6}\ m/s}

B = 0.004 T

or

B = 4 mT

So, the magnetic field produce such an acceleration at 4 mT. Hence, this is the required solution.

550 J of work must be done to compress a gas to half its initial volume at constant temperature. How much work must be done to c
Over [174]

Answer:

The amount of work that must be done to compress the gas 11 times less than its initial pressure is 909.091 J

Explanation:

The given variables are

Work done = 550 J

Volume change = V₂ - V₁ = -0.5V₁

Thus the product of pressure and volume change = work done by gas, thus

P × -0.5V₁ = 500 J

Hence -PV₁ = 1000 J

also P₁/V₁ = P₂/V₂ but V₂ = 0.5V₁ Therefore  P₁/V₁ = P₂/0.5V₁ or P₁ = 2P₂

Also to compress the gas by a factor of 11 we have

P (V₂ - V₁) = P×(V₁/11 -V₁) = P(11V₁ - V₁)/11 = P×-10V₁/11 = -PV₁×10/11 = 1000 J ×10/11  = 909.091 J of work
