When a high-energy proton or pion traveling near the speed of light collides with a nucleus, it may travel 2.5 x 10-15 m before

interacting. From this information, find the time interval required for the strong interaction to occur.

Explanation:

It is given that,

When a high-energy proton or pion traveling near the speed of light collides with a nucleus, d=2.5\times 10^{-15}\ m

Speed of light, c=3\times 10^{8}\ m\s

Let t is the time interval required for the strong interaction to occur. The speed is given by :

c=\dfrac{d}{t}

t=\dfrac{d}{c}

t=\dfrac{2.5\times 10^{-15}\ m}{3\times 10^{8}\ m/s}

t=8.33\times 10^{-24}\ s

So, the time interval required for the strong interaction to occur is 8.33\times 10^{-24}\ s. Hence, this is the required solution.

how is it that an electric bulb lights up as soon as we turn the switch on if the drift speed is 1mm /s^2
galben [10]
Two analogies: 
1. The wires are like hoses full of water. As soon as you turn on the water, water is pushed out the end of the hose. 
2. Although the electrons only move at 1mm/s, the electomagnetic pulse travels through the circuit at near speed of light (varies btw .1c to .9c). It is this pulse that provides the pressure to push the electrons out the end of the wire into the light

What two physical processes balance each other to create the condition known as gravitational equilibrium in stars?
dusya [7]

Answer:

gravitational force and outward pressure

Explanation:

The stars are very massive stellar objects, so they have a strong gravitational force, which drives the star to contract itself, but also in stars there are nuclear reactions such as fusion of hydrogen and other elements, that releases energy and creates a pressure from the center to the star exterior, an outward pressure that goes against the gravitational force. So when a star is stable these two forces exist in equilibrium or in balance, in which the star does not collapse by gravity or disintegrate by its outward pressure.

During an all-night cram session, a student heats up a 0.607 liter (0.607 x 10- 3 m3) glass (Pyrex) beaker of cold coffee. Initi
mina [271]

Answer: 0.00000938422m^3

Explanation:

dV=Vø*β*(t1-tø)

The parameters are

dV is the change in volume after temperature increase

Vø =0.607 *10^-3m3 is the initial vokume of coffe at 16.2^0 C

β= coefficient of volume expansion of water at 16.2^0 C is 0.0002/0C

t1= 93.5^0C final temperature

tø=16.2^0 C

Therefore

dV=0.607 *10^-3 *0.0002*(93.5-16.2)

dV= 0.00000938422m^3

This is the volume of coffee that will spill over the container

What causes the electric charges to flow from one end of the battery to the other?
Greeley [361]
The answer is difference in eletric potential. If there are 2 groups of electric potential and they are connected, the difference in potential we cause particles with charge to flow until the potential is equal. Resistance only determines rate of flow but doesnt initialy cause the flow.
