An alpha particle (a helium nucleus, consisting of two protons and two neutrons) has a radius of approximately 1.6 × 10-15 m. A
Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

9.96x10^-20 kg-m/s

Explanation:

Momentum p is the product of mass and velocity, i.e

P = mv

Alpha particles, like helium nuclei, have a net spin of zero. Due to the mechanism of their production in standard alpha radioactive decay, alpha particles generally have a kinetic energy of about 5 MeV, and a velocity in the vicinity of 5% the speed of light.

From this we calculate the speed as

v = 5% 0f 3x10^8 m/s (speed of light)

v = 1.5x10^7 m/s

The mass of an alpha particle is approximately 6.64×10−27 kg

Therefore,

P = 1.5x10^7 x 6.64×10^−27

P = 9.96x10^-20 kg-m/s

You are on a sled at the top of a hemispherical, snowy hill of radius 13 m. You begin to slide down the hill. How fast are you m
8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

Explanation:

There will be loss of potential energy due to loss of height and gain of kinetic energy .

loss of height = R - R cos 14 ,    R is radius of hemisphere .

R ( 1 - cos 12 )

= 13 ( 1 - .978 )

h = .286 m

loss of potential energy

= mgh

= m x 9.8 x .286

= 2.8 m

gain of kinetic energy

1/2 m v ² = mgh

v² = 2 g h

v²  = 2 x 9.8 x 2.8

v = 7.40 m /s

7. When initially-unpolarized light passes through three polarizing filters, each oriented at 45 degree angles from the precedin
GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the intensity  of unpolarised light be I₀ . After passing through the first polarising filter , the intensity  is I₀ / 2 .

After second filter , the intensity  will be  I₀ / 2 x cos²45 =  I₀ / 4

After third filter , the intensity will be I₀ / 4  x cos²45 = I₀ / 8 .

So,

1 / 8 the of initial light passes through the last filter .
