We will convert the 1dm3 in terms of cm3 as follows:
1dm^3 = (10 cm)^3
= 1000 cm^3
The mass of platinum is equal to 900 lb.
Then we will convert the mass in terms of grams as follows:
1 lb = 453.6 g
900 = 900 x 453.6 g
= 408240 g
Then density of platinum is equal to 21.4 g/cm^3
We will calculate the volume of platinum in mass 408240 g as follows:
Volume of platinum = mass of platinum / density of platinum
= 408240 g / 21.4 g/cm^3
= 19076.6 cm^3
The total volume of platinum is 19076.6 cm^3
The volume of platinum in 1 L bar is 1000cm^3
So, to calculate the number of bars we will use the formula as follows;
Number of bars = volume of platinum available / volume of platinum required in 1 L bar
= 19076.6 cm^3 / 1000 cm^3
= 19
So, the number of bars are 19.
That is meters per second, same as velocity.
Answer:
a) 17.33 V/m
b) 6308 m/s
Explanation:
We start by using equation of motion
s = ut + 1/2at², where
s = 1.2 cm = 0.012 m
u = 0 m/s
t = 3.8*10^-6 s, so that
0.012 = 0 * 3.8*10^-6 + 0.5 * a * (3.8*10^-6)²
0.012 = 0.5 * a * 1.444*10^-11
a = 0.012 / 7.22*10^-12
a = 1.66*10^9 m/s²
If we assume the electric field to be E, and we know that F =qE. Also, from Newton's law, we have F = ma. So that, ma = qE, and E = ma/q, where
E = electric field
m = mass of proton
a = acceleration
q = charge of proton
E = (1.67*10^-27 * 1.66*10^9) / 1.6*10^-19
E = 2.77*10^-18 / 1.6*10^-19
E = 17.33 V/m
Final speed of the proton can be gotten by using
v = u + at
v = 0 + 1.66*10^9 * 3.8*10^-6
v = 6308 m/s
1. The balls move to the opposite direction but the same speed. This represents Newton's third law of motion.
2. The total momentum before and after the collision stays constant or is conserved.
3. If the masses were the same, the velocities of both balls after the collision would exchange.
4 and 5. Use momentum balance to solve for the final velocities.
