1 answer:

8 0

If I remember correctly (from my studies long time ago) the layers are from the outer to the center:
SiAl : Silicon-Aluminum
SiMa : Silicon-Magnesium (although should be Mg)
NiFe : Nickel-Iron

The SiMa layer should have the lightest elements (Magnesium is lighter than Aluminum)

A cyclotron designed to accelerate protons has a magnetic field of magnitude 0.15 T over a region of radius 7.4 m. The charge on

klio [65]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Magnetic field, B = 0.15 T

Charge on a proton, $q=1.60218\times 10^{-19}\ C$

Mass of a proton, $m=1.67262 \times 10^{-27}\ kg$

The cyclotron frequency is given by :

$f=\dfrac{qB}{2\pi m}$

$f=\dfrac{1.60218\times 10^{-19}\ C\times 0.15\ T}{2\pi \times 1.67262 \times 10^{-27}\ kg}$

f = 2286785.40 Hz

$\omega=14368296.44\ rad/s$

$\omega=1.43\times 10^7 rad/s$

Hence, this is the required solution.

A 100 Kg man is diving off a 50 meter cliff. What is his kinetic energy when he is 20 meters from the water?

iren2701 [21]

Answer:

$K.E=29.403125J$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

Mass $M=100$

Height $50-20=30m$

Generally the equation for velocity before impact is is is mathematically given by

$v=\sqrt{2gh}$

$v=\sqrt{2*9.8*30}$

$v=24.25$

Generally the equation for Kinetic Energy is is mathematically given by

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

$K.E=\frac{1}{2}*100*(24.25)^2\\$

$K.E=29403.125J$

$K.E=29.403125J$

(I) In a ballistic pendulum experiment, projectile 1 results in a maximum height h of the pendulum equal to 2.6 cm. A second pro

Kipish [7]

Answer:

The second projectile was 1.41 times faster than the first.

Explanation:

In the ballistic pendulum experiment, the speed (v) of the projectile is given by:

$v = \frac{m + M}{m} \cdot \sqrt{2gh}$

<em>where m: is the mass of the projectile, M: is the mass of the pendulum, g: is the gravitational constant and h: is the maximum height of the pendulum. </em>

To know how many times faster was the second projectile than the first, we need to take the ratio for the velocities for the projectiles 2 and 1:

$\frac{v_{2}}{v_{1}} = \frac{\frac{m_{2} + M}{m_{2}} \cdot \sqrt{2gh_{2}}}{\frac{m_{1} + M}{m_{1}} \cdot \sqrt{2gh_{1}}}$ (1)

<em>where m₁ and m₂ are the masses of the projectiles 1 and 2, respectively, and h₁ and h₂ are the maximum height reached by the pendulum by the projectiles 1 and 2, respectively. </em>

Since the projectile 1 has the same mass that the projectile 2, we can simplify equation (1):

$\frac{v_{2}}{v_{1}} = \frac{\sqrt{h_{2}}}{\sqrt{h_{1}}}$

$\frac{v_{2}}{v_{1}} = \frac{\sqrt{5.2 cm}}{\sqrt{2.6 cm}}$

$\frac{v_{2}}{v_{1}} = 1.41$

Therefore, the second projectile was 1.41 times faster than the first.

I hope it helps you!
