Answer #1

The electrostatic potential energy is (9x109)(1.6x10-19)2 650× 10-15 = 3.544x10-14 J The distance is 3.25)(3.25) -4.596 fm 4.60× 10-15 m The potential energy is (( 98 10% )(1.6×10-19 )2(1.6×10-19 4.596x10-15 ) 3.544x1014+2 - 2.36x10-3 j The energy in electrostatic potential energy U2-U,-2.36x101-3.544x101 2.0x1013 J Then U-U1-^mvi 2.0 × 10-13--( 6.64 × 10-27 ) V2 v= 7.76×106 m/s Then change in electrostatic potential energy is 2.36x10136.64x102v v= 5.96× 106 m/s
