Two point charges are initially at rest and they are positioned 25.0 cm apart. The first charge has a charge of 10.0 micro Coulombs and the second charge has a charge of 50.0 micro Coulombs. The second charge has twice the mass as the first charge. When the point charges are 50.0 cm apart what is the kinetic energy of the second charge?

Two red blood cells each have a mass of 9.05×10^−14kg and carry a negative charge spread uniformly over their surfaces. The repulsion arising from the excess charge prevents the cells from clumping together. One cell carries −2.70pC and the other −3.30 pC, and each cell can be modeled as a sphere 3.75×10^−6m in radius. If the red blood cells start very far apart and move directly toward each other with the same speed, what initial speed would each need so...

Stationary planets “A” and “B”, each with mass 1024 kg, are located 106 m away from each other in the horizontal direction (x). Space capsule “C” with a mass of 1000 kg starts at rest 106 m from both “A” and “B”, so the three objects form an equilateral triangle. Assume that “A” and “B” have a fixed position and cannot move, while “C” is able to move freely. What is the net gravitational force vector on “C” at time...

Two identical particles of charge 6 μμC and mass 3 μμg are initially at rest and held 3 cm apart. How fast will the particles move when they are allowed to repel and separate to very large (essentially infinite) distance? Now suppose that the two particles have the same charges from the previous problem, but their masses are different. One particle has mass 3 μμg as before, but the other one is heavier, with a mass of 30 μμg. Their...

Two red blood cells each have a mass of 9.05×10−149.05×10−14 kg and carry a negative charge spread uniformly over their surfaces. The repulsion arising from the excess charge prevents the cells from clumping together. One cell carries −2.30−2.30 pC and the other −3.50−3.50 pC, and each cell can be modeled as a sphere 3.75×10−63.75×10−6 m in radius.

Two electrons in the same atom have n = 3 and ℓ = 1. (Assume for the purposes of this problem that the electrons are distinguishable.) (a) How many allowed states are there for the possible states of the atom? (Assume for this problem that the electrons are distinguishable (in other words, that they can be told apart), but that the exclusion principle still applies to the atom.) (b) How many states would be possible if the exclusion principle did...
