The change in potential energy of the proton is 5.6 x Joule
<h3>
What is a Uniform Electric Field ?</h3>
A uniform electric field is where the electric field strength is the same at all points in the field. In the uniform field, the force experienced by a charge is the same no matter where it is placed in the field.
Given that a proton moves a distance 10 cm in a uniform electric field of 3.5 kN C, in the direction of the field.
- The distance d = 10 cm = 0.1 m
- Electric field E = 3.5 KN/C
- Proton charge q = 1.6 x C
The Work done = Fd
but F = Eq
Recall that Electric field E = F/q = V/d
Where V = potential difference.
Let us first calculate the V
E = V/d
V = Ed
Substitute all the parameters into the formula above
V = 3.5 × 10³ × 0.1
V = 350 v
from F/q = V/d
make F the subject of formula and substitute it in work formula
F = Vq/d
W.D = Vq/d x d
W.D = Vq
Substitute all the parameters into the formula above
W.D = 350 x 1.6 x
W.D = 5.6 x J
Work done = Energy = Potential Energy
Therefore, the change in potential energy of the proton is 5.6 x <em> Joule</em>

The answer is C. If the box is accelerating, that means that the amount of force you are exerting is greater than the force of the box.
Answer:
Train accaleration = 0.70 m/s^2
Explanation:
We have a pendulum (presumably simple in nature) in an accelerating train. As the train accelerates, the pendulum is going move in the opposite direction due to inertia. The force which causes this movement has the same accaleration as that of the train. This is the basis for the problem.
Start by setting up a free body diagram of all the forces in play: The gravitational force on the pendulum (mg), the force caused by the pendulum's inertial resistance to the train(F_i), and the resulting force of tension caused by the other two forces (F_r).
Next, set up your sum of forces equations/relationships. Note that the sum of vertical forces (y-direction) balance out and equal 0. While the horizontal forces add up to the total mass of the pendulum times it's accaleration; which, again, equals the train's accaleration.
After doing this, I would isolate the resulting force in the sum of vertical forces, substitute it into the horizontal force equation, and solve for the acceleration. The problem should reduce to show that the acceleration is proportional to the gravity times the tangent of the angle it makes.
I've attached my work, comment with any questions.
Side note: If you take this end result and solve for the angle, you'll see that no matter how fast the train accelerates, the pendulum will never reach a full 90°!
Hydrogen gas is harmless to your feet so since you don’t need protection against it that seems the best answer.
