Given data

*The given mass of the rock is m = 2 kg

*The given potential energy is U_p = 407 J

(a)

The diagram of the energy bar graph is drawn below

(b)

If an object is at rest and has potential energy, once it starts to fall from its rest state then this potential energy is completely transferred to kinetic energy. This means that the magnitude of the kinetic energy is equal to the potential energy of the object.

The change in kinetic energy of the rock while falling to the ground is given as

$\begin{gathered} U_k=U_p \\ =407\text{ J} \end{gathered}$

(c)

The formula for the speed of the block is given as

$\begin{gathered} U_k=\frac{1}{2}mv^2 \\ v=\sqrt[]{\frac{2U_k}{m}} \end{gathered}$

Substitute the known values in the above expression as

$\begin{gathered} v=\sqrt[]{\frac{2\times407}{2}} \\ =20.17\text{ m/s} \end{gathered}$

Hence, the speed of the object is v = 20.17 m/s

In a cyclotron, the orbital radius of protons with energy 300 keV is 16.0 cm . You are redesigning the cyclotron to be used inst

Archy [21]

Answer:

16 cm

Explanation:

For protons:

Energy, E = 300 keV

radius of orbit, r1 = 16 cm

the relation for the energy and velocity is given by

$E = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2}$

So, $v = \sqrt{\frac{2E}{m}}$ .... (1)

Now,

$r = \frac{mv}{Bq}$

Substitute the value of v from equation (1), we get

$r = \frac{\sqrt{2mE}}{Bq}$

Let the radius of the alpha particle is r2.

For proton

So, $r_{1} = \frac{\sqrt{2m_{1}E}}{Bq_{1}}$ ... (2)

Where, m1 is the mass of proton, q1 is the charge of proton

For alpha particle

So, $r_{2} = \frac{\sqrt{2m_{2}E}}{Bq_{2}}$ ... (3)

Where, m2 is the mass of alpha particle, q2 is the charge of alpha particle

Divide equation (2) by equation (3), we get

$\frac{r_{1}}{r_{2}}=\frac{q_{2}}{q_{1}}\times \sqrt{\frac{m_{1}}{m_{2}}}$

q1 = q

q2 = 2q

m1 = m

m2 = 4m

By substituting the values

$\frac{r_{1}}{r_{2}}=\frac{2q}}{q}}\times \sqrt{\frac{m}}{4m}}=1$

So, r2 = r1 = 16 cm

Thus, the radius of the alpha particle is 16 cm.

faltersainse [42]

Answer:

Explanation:

Assuming that the length of the magnet is much smaller than the separation between it and the charge. As a result of magnetic interaction (i.e., ignore pure Coulomb forces) between the charge and the bar magnet, the magnet will not experience any torque at all; the reason being that: no magnetic field is being produced by a charge that is static. Only a moving charge can produce a magnetic effect. And the magnet can not have any torque due to its own magnetic lines of force.
