    Calculating Chlorine Ion Acceleration & Speed of Light:Why?

    So am I saying that once the ion has left the 7nm region of parallel plate capacitor it is no longer being attracted to (driven) by an opposing charge which is why it's actual velocity is no where near the speed of light 600m/s? Will it actually be feeling a pulling force back towards the...

    Calculating Chlorine Ion Acceleration & Speed of Light:Why?

    Wow! Never thought I would even get half way through this calculation, thank you so much! Seeing as I'm going of the assumption that the particle is not moving at the start should I state that at the beginning of my answer? Would a reason that the particle doesn't keep accelerating until it...

    Calculating Chlorine Ion Acceleration & Speed of Light:Why?

    Okay so can I just get away with using F=ma and F=q0E? Seeing as we're not worrying about direction, just acceleration q=1.6x10^-19 C. Find E: 0.07 volts/ 7.0 × 10-9 metres = 10000000V/m. F= 1.6x10^-19 C x 10000000V/m = 1.6x10^-12N Now I can put this into F/m = a 1.6x10^-12N/5.8^-26kg =...

    Calculating Chlorine Ion Acceleration & Speed of Light:Why?

    Question Assuming the electric potential difference between the inside and outside of a cell is 70 mV and the thickness of the region across which this exists is 7 nm, calculate the acceleration a chlorine ion would experience in the absence of other forces. In the absence of other forces how...

    Does 2-Methyl-2-Pentene Have Stereoisomers?

    [FONT=PT Sans] Damn you're 100% right! I had that originally but then I started to think of the question as talking about all C6H12 molecules. I'm a but confused as what constitutes an isomer in relation to this question - I assume it's not talking about all C6H12 isomers so does that mean...

    Calculating Capillary Amount Given Aorta Blood Flow

    Homework Statement When the rate of blood flow in the aorta is 5 litres per minute, the speed in the capillaries is about 0.33 mm per second. If the average diameter of a capillary is 8 microns (0.008 mm), calculate the number of capillaries in the circulatory system. Homework Equations Flow...
