Textbook Question
Chapter 1, Problem 55TAS

A ball is thrown straight up with enough speed so that it is in the air for several seconds.

(a) What is the velocity of the ball when it reaches its highest point?

(b) What is its velocity 1 s before it reaches its highest point?

(c) What is the charge in its velocity, Δv, during this 1-s interval?

(d) What is its velocity 1 s after it reaches its highest point?

(e) What is the change in its velocity, Δv, during this 1-s interval?

(f) What is the change in its velocity, Δv, during the 2-s interval from 1 s before it reaches the highest point to 1 s after it reaches the highest point? (Caution: We are talking about velocity, not speed.)

(g) What is the acceleration of the ball during any of these time intervals and at the moment the ball has zero velocity?

An electron is moving with an initial speed of 3.2 x 105 m/s toward a proton that is stationary. If the electron is very very far away from the proton initially, what distance from the proton does the electron have twice the speed it did originally? (Answer= 6.14x10^9)
Three electrons are located at the vertices of an equilateral triangle with side lengths of d. The electrons at the base of the triangle are stuck in place but the electron at the top is free to move. The mass of an electron is 9.109 *10-31 kg. a) Find the distance d such that the electron located at the top or apex of the triangle is balanced by the repulsive forces of the electrons below it and the gravitational force pulling it down.
Your object has mass 59.8 kg, and you ve separated the boxes of protons and electrons by a distance of 27 m. If you were to release the clump of protons from their box, how much acceleration would the clump of protons undergo due to its attraction to the clump of electrons in the other box?
