A proton has been accelerated from rest through a potential difference of -1350 V. What is the proton's kinetic energy, in electron volts? What is the proton's kinetic energy, in joules? What is the proton's speed?

Sagot :

Answer:

1 eV = 1.60 * 10^-19 J      work done in accelerating electron thru 1 V

KE (total energy) = 1350 ^ 1 eV     (note proton goes from +  to -)

KE = 1.60 * 10^-19 * 1350 = 2.16 * 10^-16 Joules

1/2 m v^2 = KE = 2.16 * 10^-16 J

v^2 = 4.32 * 10E-16 / 1.67 * 10-27 = 2.59 * 10^11

v = 5.09 * 10^5 m/s

Answer:

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is the physical quantity that explains the energy required to accelerate the system and remain in motion. A joule or Newton meter is a measurable unit to define kinetic energy.
