In the presence of a nucleus the energy of a y-ray photon can be converted into an electron-positron pair. Calculate the minimum

energy for this to occur and thus the frequency of such a photon. Hint: use E = mc2.]

Answer:

Explanation:

mass of electron in amu = .000549

mass of electron = mass of proton

total mass of electron and proton = 2 x1.098 x 10⁻³ = 2.196 x 10⁻³ amu

1 amu = 931 x 10⁶ eV

2.196 X 10⁻³ amu = 2.196 x 931 x 10³ eV

= 2.044 X 10⁶ eV.

= 2044 X 10³ ev

So minimum energy required = 2044 x 10³ eV.

Wavelength of photon required = 12375/2044 x 10³ A

= 6.054 X 10⁻³A. =6.054 X 10⁻¹³ m

frequency of photon  = 3 x 10⁸/6.054x 10⁻¹³

= .4955 x 10¹⁶Hz.

= 4.955 x 10¹⁵ Hz

A block weighing 10 newtons is resting on a plane inclined 30° to the horizontal. What is the magnitude of the normal force acti
aleksley [76]

Magnitude of normal force acting on the block is 7 N

Explanation:

10N = 1.02kg

Mass of the block = m = 1.02 kg

Angle of incline Θ =  30°

Normal force acting on the block = N

From the free body diagram,

N = mgCos Θ

N = (1.02)(9.81)Cos(30)

N = 8.66 N

Rounding off to nearest whole number,

N = 7 N

Magnitude of normal force acting on the block = 7 N

Find the weight of a 25 kg table. (Use g= 10 m/s?)
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

weight = 25*10 =250 N

Explanation:

g must be given in units of m/s^2

The weight of any type of body will be the product of his mass by the gravity

where:

m =mass [kg]

F = force [N] or [kg*m/s^2]

g = acceleration [m/s^2]
