Aproton is projected toward a fixed nucleus of charge +ze with velocity vo. initially the two particles are very far apart. when the proton is a distance r from the nucleus its velocity has decreased to 1/2vo. how far from the nucleus will the proton be when its velocity has dropped to 1/4vo?

This is the substance(s) formed in a chemical reaction.

Uppose we consider the system of the three capacitors as a single "equivalent" capacitor. given the charges of the three individual capacitors calculated in the previous part, find the total charge qtot for this equivalent capacitor. express your answer in terms of v and c.
