Answer:

C) 10 cm

Explanation:

We shall first calculate the focal length of the mirror.

object distance u = 20 cm ( negative )

Image distance v = 12 cm ( negative )

using mirror formula

1/ v + 1 /u = 1/ f

-1/12  - 1/ 20 =1/ f

f =- 7.5 cm

In the second case

u = - 30 cm

f = - 7.5 cm

i / v + 1 / u = 1 / f

1 / v - 1/30 = - 1/ 7.5

v = -10 cm

Answer is C that is 10 cm

A subatomic particle X spontaneously decays into two particles, A and B, each of rest energy 1.40 × 10^2 MeV. The particles fly
adoni [48]

Answer:

E = 389 MeV

Explanation:

The total energy of particle A, will be equal to the sum of rest mass energy and relative energy of particle A. Therefore,

Total Energy of A = E = Rest Mass Energy + Relative Energy

Using Einstein's Equation: E = mc²

E = m₀c² + mc²

From Einstein's Special Theory of Relativity, we know that:

m = m₀/[√(1-v²/c²)]

Therefore,

E = m₀c² + m₀c²/[√(1-v²/c²)]

E = m₀c²[1 + 1/√(1-v²/c²)]

where,

m₀c² = rest mass energy = 140 MeV

v = relative speed = 0.827 c

Therefore,

E = (140 MeV)[1 + 1/√(1 - (0.827c)²/c²)]

E = (140 MeV)(2.78)

<u>E = 389 MeV</u>
