Protons and neutrons are packed together in a very small region called nucleus. Protons are positively charged and we know that like charges repel. Then how is it that protons are not repelling each other and flying away from nucleus?
You may think that gravitational force is holding all the protons together but it is not so. Gravitational force is many times weaker than repulsive force.
It is actually strong force which holds proton together. At this short distance, strong force comes into play and is several times stronger than the repulsive force.
Answer:
Explanation:
q = 2e = 3.2 x 10^-19 C
mass, m = 6.68 x 10^-27 kg
Kinetic energy, K = 22 MeV
Current, i = 0.27 micro Ampere = 0.27 x 10^-6 A
(a) time, t = 2.8 s
Let N be the alpha particles strike the surface.
N x 2e = q
N x 3.2 x 10^-19 = i t
N x 3.2 x 10^-19 = 0.27 x 10^-6 x 2.8
N = 2.36 x 10^12
(b) Length, L = 16 cm = 0.16 m
Let N be the alpha particles
K = 0.5 x mv²
22 x 1.6 x 10^-13 = 0.5 x 6.68 x 10^-27 x v²
v² = 1.054 x 10^15
v = 3.25 x 10^7 m/s
So, N x 2e = i x t
N x 2e = i x L / v
N x 3.2 x 10^-19 = 2.7 x 10^-7 x 0.16 / (3.25 x 10^7)
N = 4153.85
(c) Us ethe conservation of energy
Kinetic energy = Potential energy
K = q x V
22 x 1.6 x 10^-13 = 2 x 1.5 x 10^-19 x V
V = 1.17 x 10^7 V
Answer:
Explanation:
a) Energy stored in spring = 1/2 k x² = .5 x k 0.1²
500 = 5 x 10⁻³ k ,
k = (500/5) x 10³ = 10⁵ N/m
b )
k = 4.5 x 10¹ = 45 N/m
Stored energy = 1/2 k x² = .5 x 45 x 8² x 10⁻⁴ =1440 x 10⁻⁴ J
This energy gets dissipated by friction .
work done by friction = μ mg d
d is the distance traveled under friction
so 1440 x 10⁻⁴ = μ x 3 x 9.8 x 2
μ = 245 x 10⁻⁴ or 0.00245 which appears to be very small. .

Answer:
E) momentum and mechanical energy
Explanation:
In the context, an object is attached to the another mass with a spring which is initially at a rest position. Now when the spring is compressed, the two masses moves with the same speed. Now since the both the masses combines with the spring to move together they are considered as one system and in this case the momentum and the kinetic energy will be conserved.
The kinetic energy and momentum of the system after collision and the kinetic energy and momentum of the two masses before collision will be constant.
