Two particles, an electron and a proton, are initially at rest in a uniform electric field of magnitude 554 N/C. If the particles are free to move, what are their speeds (in m/s) after 51.6 ns

the speed of electron is 5.021 x 10⁶ m/s

the speed of proton is 2733.91 m/s

Explanation:

Given;

magnitude of electric field, E = 554 N/C

charge of the particles, Q = 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C

time of motion, t = 51.6 ns = 51.6 x 10⁻⁹ s

The force experienced by each particle is calculated as;

F = EQ

F = (554)(1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹)

F = 8.864 x 10⁻¹⁷ N

The speed of the particles are calculated as;

answer: 802.3 kilo joules of energy represents 191.75 kilo calorie of energy.

explanation:

energy released during combustion of one mole methane = 802.3 kilo joules

if 1 kilo joule = 0.239006   kilo calorie

then ,802.3 kilo joule will be = 802.30.239006 kilo calorie

802.3 kilo joule = 191.75 kilo calorie

hence, the energy in kilo calorie is 191.75 kilo calorie.
