In order to answer these questions, we need to know the charges on
the electron and proton, and then we need to know the electron's mass. 
I'm beginning to get the creepy feeling that, in return for the generous
5 points, you also want me to go and look these up so I can use them
in calculations ... go and collect my own straw to make the bricks with,
as it were. 

Ok, Rameses:

Elementary charge . . . . .  1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹  coulomb
                                        negative on the electron
                                        plussitive on the proton

Electron rest-mass . . . . .  9.11 x 10⁻³¹  kg


a).  The force between two charges is

      F  =  (9 x 10⁹) Q₁ Q₂ / R²

          =  (9 x 10⁹ m/farad) (-1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹C) (1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹C) / (5.35 x 10⁻¹¹m)²

          =     ( -2.304 x 10⁻²⁸) / (5.35 x 10⁻¹¹)²

          =          8.05 x 10⁻⁸  Newton .


b).  Centripetal acceleration  = 

                                               v² / r  .

                  A  =  (2.03 x 10⁶)² / (5.35 x 10⁻¹¹)

                     =      7.7 x 10²²  m/s² .

That's an enormous acceleration ... about  7.85 x 10²¹  G's !
More than enough to cause the poor electron to lose its lunch.

It would be so easy to check this work of mine ...
First I calculated the force, then I calculated the centripetal acceleration.
I didn't use either answer to find the other one, and I didn't use  "  F = MA "
either.

I could just take the ' F ' that I found, and the 'A' that I found, and the
electron mass that I looked up, and mash the numbers together to see
whether  F = M A .

I'm going to leave that step for you.   Good luck !

A force in the x direction acts on a particle moving also in the x direction, producing a potential energy U(x)=Ax4 where A=0.63
poizon [28]

Answer:

The magnitude of the force is 1.29*10^-3N in the positive x direction

Explanation:

In order to calculate the magnitude and direction of the force, you take into account that the force is the space derivative of the potential enrgy, as follow:

F(x)=-\frac{dU(x)}{dx}     (1)

where:

U(x)=Ax^4\\\\A=0.0630\frac{J}{m^4}

You replace the expression for U into the equation (1) and solve for F:

F(x)=-\frac{d}{dx}[Ax^4]=-4Ax^3     (2)

The force on the particle, for x = -0.080m is:

F=-4(0.630\frac{J}{m^4})(-0.0800m)^3=1.29*10^{-3}N

The magnitude of the force is 1.29*10^-3N in the positive x direction

Simon draws a diagram to illustrate the law of reflection.
Step2247 [10]

Answer:

Make the angle of reflection and the angle of incidence equal.

Explanation:

The law of reflection states that at the point of incidence on a smooth surface, the angle of incidence is equal to the angle  of reflection, The incident ray, the normal and the reflected ray lie on the same plane.

Sandy is riding a bicycle with tires that have a diameter of 650 mm. A small twig, caught in the spokes, causes the tire to clic
Minchanka [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

Sandy hears 8 such clicks every 3 seconds and a small twig, caught in the spokes, causes the tire to click once each revolution that means the wheel of the cycle is rotating at 8 rotations every 3 seconds or 8/3 rotation per second . In each rotation , it moves distance equal to its circumference .

circumference = 2π r = 2 x 3.14 x .65 / 2 m

= 2.041 m

In 8/3 rotation , distance covered = 8/3 x 2.041 = 5.44 m

So speed of cycle is 5.44 m per second

5.44 x 60 x 60 m per hour

19584 m per hour

= 19.584 km per hour .

= 20 km per hour approx.
