The mass of Mg-24 is 24.30506 amu, it contains 12 protons and 12 neutrons.
Theoretical mass of Mg-24:
The theoretical mass of Mg-24 is:
Hydrogen atom mass = 12 × 1.00728 amu = 12.0874 amu
Neutron mass = 12 x 1.008665 amu = 12.104 amu
Theoretical mass = Hydrogen atom mass + Neutron mass = 24.1913 amu
Note that the mass defect is:
Mass defect = Actual mass - Theoretical mass : 24.30506 amu- 24.1913 amu= 0.11376 amu
Calculating the binding energy per nucleon:
So approximately 4.41294 Mev/necleon
A rock at the edge of a cliff has potential energy because it isn't in motion, but is located in a place that motion could occur in the near future.
Answer:
100 watts x 10 hours = 1,000 watt‐hours = 1 kWh
Given Information:
Mass of electron = m = 9x10⁻³¹ kg
initial speed of electron = v₁ = 0.92c
Force = F = 1.4x10⁻¹³ J
Distance = d = 3 m
Required Information:
Final speed of electron = v₂ = ?
Answer:
Final speed of electron = v₂ = 2.974x10⁸ m/s
Explanation:
As we know from the conservation of energy,
E₂ - E₁ = W
E₂ = E₁ + W
Where E₂ is the final energy of electron and E₁ is the initial energy of electron
The above equation can be written in the form of particle energy
γ₂mc² = γ₁mc² + W
where γ₁ and γ₂ are given by
γ₁ = 1/√1 - (v₁/c)²
γ₂ = 1/√1 - (v₂/c)²
First calculate γ₁
γ₁ = 1/√1 - (0.92c/c)²
γ₁ = 2.55 m
Now calculate γ₂
γ₂ = (γ₁mc² + W)/mc²
First we need to find the work done
W = F*d
W = 1.4x10⁻¹³*3
W = 4.2x10⁻¹³ J
so γ₂ is
γ₂ = (2.55*9x10⁻³¹*(3x10⁸)² + 4.2x10⁻¹³)/9x10⁻³¹*(3x10⁸)²
γ₂ = 7.73
Now we can find the new speed of the electron
γ₂ = 1/√1 - (v₂/c)²
Re-arranging the above equation results in
v₂ = c*√(1 - 1/γ₂²)
v₂ = 3x10⁸*√(1 - 1/7.73²)
v₂ = 2.974x10⁸ m/s
