Answer:

$W=\Delta KE= KE_f-KE_i=\frac{1}{2} \,m \,v_f^2-\frac{1}{2} \,m \,v_i^2$

Explanation:

The Work-Kinetic Energy Theorem states that the work done on a particle of mass "m", equals the particle's change in Kinetic Energy (final Kinetic Energy of the particle " $KE_f$ " minus the initial Kinetic energy of the particle " $KE_i$ "), and it is expressed as:

$W=\Delta KE= KE_f-KE_i=\frac{1}{2} \,m \,v_f^2-\frac{1}{2} \,m \,v_i^2$

where we have used the explicit form of the KE of a particle of mass m and velocity $v$ . Of course, $v_f$ stands for the final velocity of the particle, and $v_i$ for the particle's initial velocity.

An atom of uranium 238 emits an alpha particle (an atom of He) and recoils with a velocity of 1.895 * 10^ 5 m/sec . With velocit

lora16 [44]

<u>Answer:</u> The velocity of released alpha particle is $1.127\times 10^7m/s$

<u>Explanation:</u>

According to law of conservation of momentum, momentum can neither be created nor be destroyed until and unless, an external force is applied.

For a system:

$m_1v_1=m_2v_2$

where,

$m_1\text{ and }v_1$ = Initial mass and velocity

$m_2\text{ and }v_2$ = Final mass and velocity

We are given:

$m_1=238u\\v_1=1.895\times 10^{5}m/s\\m_2=4u\text{ (Mass of }\alpha \text{ -particle)}\\v_2=?m/s$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$238\times 1.895\times 10^5=4\times v_2\\\\v_2=\frac{238\times 1.895\times 10^5}{4}=1.127\times 10^7m/s$

Hence, the velocity of released alpha particle is $1.127\times 10^7m/s$

What is newton's second law of motion?

lord [1]

Answer:

Newton's second law of motion can be formally stated as follows: The acceleration of an object as produced by a net force is directly proportional to the magnitude of the net force, in the same direction as the net force, and inversely proportional to the mass of the object.

The kinetic energy of an object is increased by a factor of 4 . By what factor is the magnitude of its momentum changed?(a) 16(b

maw [93]

The kinetic energy of an object is increased by a factor of 4 . By what factor is the magnitude of its momentum changed: 2.

<h3>What is kinetic energy?</h3>

A particle or an item that is in motion has a sort of energy called kinetic energy. An item accumulates kinetic energy when work, which involves the transfer of energy, is done on it by exerting a net force.
Kinetic energy comes in five forms: radiant, thermal, acoustic, electrical, and mechanical.
The energy of a body in motion, or kinetic energy (KE), is essentially the energy of all moving objects. Along with potential energy, which is the stored energy present in objects at rest, it is one of the two primary types of energy.
Explain that a moving object's mass and speed are two factors that impact the amount of kinetic energy it will possess.

A solenoidal coil with 26 turns of wire is wound tightly around another coil with 350 turns. The inner solenoid is 20.0 cm long

noname [10]

Answer:

Part a)

$\phi = 2.76 \times 10^{-7} T m^2$

Part B)

$M = 5.52 \times 10^{-5} H$

Part C)

$EMF = 0.1 V/s$

Explanation:

Part a)

Magnetic field due to a long ideal solenoid is given by

$B = \mu_0 n i$

n = number of turns per unit length

$n = \frac{N}{L}$

$n = \frac{350}{0.20}$

$n = 1750 turn/m$

now we know that magnetic field due to solenoid is

$B = (4\pi \times 10^{-7})(1750)(0.100)$

$B = 2.2 \times 10^{-4} T$

Now magnetic flux due to this magnetic field is given by

$\phi = B.A$

$\phi = (2.2 \times 10^{-4})(\pi r^2)$

$\phi = (2.2 \times 10^{-4})(\pi(0.02)^2)$

$\phi = 2.76 \times 10^{-7} T m^2$

Part B)

Now for mutual inductance we know that

$\phi_{total} = M i$

$\phi_{total} = N\phi$

$\phi_{total} = 20(2.76 \times 10^{-4})$

$\phi_{total} = 5.52 \times 10^{-6}$

now we have

$M = \frac{5.52 \times 10^{-6}}{0.100}$

$M = 5.52 \times 10^{-5} H$

Part C)

As we know that induced EMF is given as

$EMF = M \frac{di}{dt}$

$EMF = 5.52 \times 10^{-5} (1800)$

$EMF = 0.1 V/s$
