Answer:

kinetic energy is 3.68 ×10^{-14} J

speed of these electrons is 0.5565 c

Explanation:

Given data

voltage difference = 230 kV

to find out

kinetic energy and speed of these electrons

solution

we know kinetic energy formula that is

kinetic energy = qv

kinetic energy = 1.6 ×10^{-19} × 230 × 10^{3}

kinetic energy = 3.68 ×10^{-14} J

and

speed of electron that is

kinetic energy = m1c² - m2 c²

here m1 = m / √(1-v/c)²

so

KE/mc²  = ( 1 / √(1-(v/c)² ) - 1

put value here

3.68 ×10^{-14} / (3× 10^8)²×9.11×10^{-31} = ( 1 / √(1-v/c)² ) - 1

0.448835223 = ( 1 / √(1-(v/c)² ) - 1

( 1 / √(1-(v/c)² ) = 0.448835223 + 1 = 1.448835223

√(1-(v/c)²  = 1 / 1.448835223 = 0.6902096

(v/c)² = 1 - 0.6902096 = 0.309790

v = 0.5565 c

speed of these electrons is 0.5565 c

Alborosie

Answer: 20.2 m/s

Explanation:

From the question above, we have the following data;

M1 = 800kg

M2 = 1200kg

V1 = 13m/s

V2 = 25m/s

U (common velocity) =?

M1V1 + M2V2 = (M1 + M2). U

(800*13) + (1200*25) = (800+1200) * U

10400 + 30000 = 2000u

40400 = 2000u

U = 40400 / 2000

U = 20.2 m/s
