Some typical kinetic energies. (a) In the Bohr model of the atom, the ground-state electron in hydrogen has an orbital speed of 2190 km/s. What is its kinetic energy (consult Appendix F) (b) If you drop a 1.0-kg weight (about 2 lb) from a height of 1.0 m, how many joules of kinetic energy will it have when it reaches the ground? (c) Is it reasonable that a 30.0-kg child could run fast enough to have 100 J of kinetic energy?

Short Answer

Expert verified

(a) 2.1810-18J

(b) 9.8 J

(c) Yes

Step by step solution

01

Identification of the given data

The given data is listed below as-

  • The orbital speed of ground state electron in Hydrogen is V=2190km/s=2190103ms1.
  • The mass of the child is, m=30.0kg
  • Kinetic energy, K=100J
02

Significance of the kinetic energy

The kinetic energy of a particle equals the amount of work required to accelerate the particle from rest to speed V. Therefore, kinetic energy on the particle is given by-

K=12mV2

The kinetic energy is a scalar and it is always positive or zero.

03

Determination of kinetic energy of the electron

(a)

The mass of the electron is me=9.110-31kg

The kinetic energy of an object is given by-

K=12meV2

Here, m is the mass of the electron, and Vis the speed of the electron.

For, me=9.110-31kgand V=2190km/s=2190103ms1

Therefore, the Kinetic energy of the electron is given by-

K=12meV2K=129.110-31kg2190103m/s2K=2.1810-18J

Thus, the Kinetic energy of the electron is 2.1810-18J

04

Determination of kinetic energy when a weight of 1 kg is dropped from a height of 1 m

(b)

The kinetic energy under free fall along the y-axis is given by-

K=12mVy2

The velocity at time t of a particle is given by-

V2=V02+2as鈥︹赌︹赌..(1)

Now, the object is falling along the y-axis with constant gravitational acceleration and S=y2-y1

Therefore, equation (1) becomes

Vy2=V0y2-2gy2-y1

For, V0y=0,g=9.8ms2and S=1m

Vy2=V0y2-2gy2-y1will become

Vy2=0-29.8ms21m=19.6m2s2

Therefore, kinetic energy is given by

K=121kg19.6m2s2=9.8J

Thus, kinetic energy when a weight of 1 kg is dropped from a height of 1 mis 9.8J.

05

Determine whether it is reasonable that a 30.0-kg child could run fast enough to have 100 J of kinetic energy

(c)

The mass of the child is m=30kgand

Kinetic energy is K=100J

K=12mVy2100J=1230kgVy2Vy=2.58ms-1

Thus, it is reasonable that a 30.0-kg child could run fast enough to have 100 J of kinetic energy.

Starting from the front door of a ranch house, you walk 60.0 m due east to a windmill, turn around, and then slowly walk 40.0 m west to a bench, where you sit and watch the sunrise. It takes you 28.0 s to walk from the house to the windmill and then 36.0 s to walk from the windmill to the bench. For the entire trip from the front door to the bench, what are your (a) average velocity and (b) average speed?

A plastic ball has radius 12.0 cm and floats in water with 24.0% of its volume submerged. (a) What force must you apply to the ball to hold it at rest totally below the surface of the water? (b) If you let go of the ball, what is its acceleration the instant you release it?

A medical technician is trying to determine what percentage of a patient鈥檚 artery is blocked by plaque. To do this, she measures the blood pressure just before the region of blockage and finds that it is 1.20104Pa, while in the region of blockage it is role="math" localid="1668168100834" 1.15104Pa. Furthermore, she knows that blood flowing through the normal artery just before the point of blockage is traveling at 30.0 cm/s, and the specific gravity of this patient鈥檚 blood is 1.06. What percentage of the cross-sectional area of the patient鈥檚 artery is blocked by the plaque?
