(a) The momentum of the proton is determined as 5.17 x 10⁻¹⁸ kgm/s.

(b) The speed of the proton is determined as  3.1 x 10⁹ m/s.

<h3>Momentum of the proton</h3>

The momentum of the proton is calculated as follows;

K.E = ¹/₂mv²

where;

  • m is mass of proton = 1.67 x 10⁻²⁷ kg
  • v is speed of the proton = ?
<h3>Speed of the proton</h3>

v² = 2K.E/m

v² = (2 x 50 x 10⁹ x 1.602 x 10⁻¹⁹ J)/(1.67 x 10⁻²⁷)

v² = 9.6 x 10¹⁸

v = 3.1 x 10⁹ m/s

<h3>Momentum of the proton</h3>

P = mv = (1.67 x10⁻²⁷ x 3.1 x 10⁹) = 5.17 x 10⁻¹⁸ kgm/s

The mechanical energy at top =Mechanical energy at bottom

  • Mass=m=54kg
  • Height=h=51m
  • Acceleration due to gravity=g=10m/s^2
  • Velocity=v=2.6m/s

\\ \tt\longmapsto M_{initial}=M_{Final}

  • Final energy at bottom=The kinetic energy

\\ \tt\longmapsto KE=M_{initial}

\\ \tt\longmapsto KE=P.E_{(Top)}+K.E_{(Top)}

\\ \tt\longmapsto K.E=mgh+\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

\\ \tt\longmapsto K.E=m\left(gh+\dfrac{v^2}{2}\right)

\\ \tt\longmapsto K.E=54\left((10)(51)+\dfrac{2.6^2}{2}\right)

\\ \tt\longmapsto K.E=54\left(510+\dfrac{6.76}{2}\right)

\\ \tt\longmapsto K .E=54(510+3.38)

\\ \tt\longmapsto K.E=54(513.38)

\\ \tt\longmapsto K.E=27722.52J

\\ \tt\longmapsto K.E=27.7KJ

The amount of the lighted side of the moon you can see is the same during
attashe74 [19]

<u>Answer:</u>

The amount of the lighted side of the moon you can see is the same during "how much of the sunlit side of the moon faces Earth".

<u>Explanation:</u>

The Moon is in sequential rotation with Earth, and thus displays the Sun, the close side, always on the same side. Thanks to libration, Earth can display slightly greater than half (nearly 59 per cent) of the entire lunar surface.

The side of the Moon facing Earth is considered the near side, and the far side is called the reverse. The far side is often referred to as the "dark side" inaccurately but it is actually highlighted as often as the near side: once every 29.5 Earth days. During the New Moon the near side becomes blurred.
