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.
