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

For a given initial projectile speed Vo, calculate what launch angle A gives the longest range R. Show your work, don't just quo
pickupchik [31]
The optimal angle of 45° for maximum horizontal range is only valid when initial height is the same as final height. 

<span>In that particular situation, you can prove it like this: </span>

<span>initial velocity is Vo </span>
<span>launch angle is α </span>

<span>initial vertical velocity is </span>
<span>Vv = Vo×sin(α) </span>

<span>horizontal velocity is </span>
<span>Vh = Vo×cos(α) </span>

<span>total time in the air is the the time it needs to fall back to a height of 0 m, so </span>
<span>d = v×t + a×t²/2 </span>
<span>where </span>
<span>d = distance = 0 m </span>
<span>v = initial vertical velocity = Vv = Vo×sin(α) </span>
<span>t = time = ? </span>
<span>a = acceleration by gravity = g (= -9.8 m/s²) </span>
<span>so </span>
<span>0 = Vo×sin(α)×t + g×t²/2 </span>
<span>0 = (Vo×sin(α) + g×t/2)×t </span>
<span>t = 0 (obviously, the projectile is at height 0 m at time = 0s) </span>
<span>or </span>
<span>Vo×sin(α) + g×t/2 = 0 </span>
<span>t = -2×Vo×sin(α)/g </span>

<span>Now look at the horizontal range. </span>
<span>r = v × t </span>
<span>where </span>
<span>r = horizontal range = ? </span>
<span>v = horizontal velocity = Vh = Vo×cos(α) </span>
<span>t = time = -2×Vo×sin(α)/g </span>
<span>so </span>
<span>r = (Vo×cos(α)) × (-2×Vo×sin(α)/g) </span>
<span>r = -(Vo)²×sin(2α)/g </span>

<span>To find the extreme values of r (minimum or maximum) with variable α, you must find the first derivative of r with respect to α, and set it equal to 0. </span>

<span>dr/dα = d[-(Vo)²×sin(2α)/g] / dα </span>
<span>dr/dα = -(Vo)²/g × d[sin(2α)] / dα </span>
<span>dr/dα = -(Vo)²/g × cos(2α) × d(2α) / dα </span>
<span>dr/dα = -2 × (Vo)² × cos(2α) / g </span>

<span>Vo and g are constants ≠ 0, so the only way for dr/dα to become 0 is when </span>
<span>cos(2α) = 0 </span>
<span>2α = 90° </span>
<span>α = 45° </span>

The δe of a system that releases 12.4 j of heat and does 4.2 j of work on the surroundings is __________ j.
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

The answer for this problem is clarified through this, the system is absorbing (+). And now see that it uses that the SURROUNDINGS are doing 84 KJ of work. Any time a system is overshadowing work done on it by the surroundings the sign will be +. So it's just 12.4 KJ + 4.2 = 16.6 KJ.
