C summer because of the tilt but it could be spring due to the rotation.

A medical cyclotron used in the production of medical isotopes accelerates protons to 6.5 MeV. The magnetic field in the cyclotr

mart [117]

Answer:

diameter of largest orbit is 0.60 m

Explanation:

given data

isotopes accelerates KE = 6.5 MeV

magnetic field B = 1.2 T

to find out

diameter

solution

first we find velocity from kinetic energy equation

KE = 1/2 × m×v² ........1

6.5 × 1.6 × $10^{-19}$ = 1/2 × 1.672 × $10^{-27}$ ×v²

v = 3.5 × $10^{7}$ m/s

radius will be

radius = $\frac{m*v}{B*q}$ ........2

radius = $\frac{1.672*10^{-27}*3.5*10^{7}}{1.2*1.6*10^{-19}}$

radius = 0.30

so diameter = 2 × 0.30

so diameter of largest orbit is 0.60 m

A 5-g lead bullet traveling in 20°C air at 300 m/s strikes a flat steel plate and stops.

densk [106]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the Kinetic Energy and the Energy Produced by the heat loss. In mathematical terms kinetic energy can be described as:

$KE = \frac{1}{2} mv^2$

Where,

m = Mass

v = Velocity

Replacing we have that the Total Kinetic Energy is

$KE = \frac{1}{2} mv^2$

$KE = \frac{1}{2} (5*10^{-3})(300)^2$

$KE = 225J$

On the other hand the required Energy to heat up t melting point is

$Q_1 = mC_p \Delta T$

$Q_2 = L_f m$

Where,

m = Mass

$C_p =$ Specific Heat

$\Delta T =$ Change at temperature

$L_f =$ Latent heat of fussion

Heat required to heat up to melting point,

$Q = Q_1+Q_2$

$Q = mC_p \Delta T+L_f m$

$Q = 5*0.128*(327-20) + 5*24.7$

$Q = 310J$

The energy required to melt is larger than the kinetic energy. Therefore the heat of fusion of lead would be 327 ° C: The melting point of lead.

In which situation will the lowest resistance occur?

MrMuchimi

C. Thick wire and cold temperature.

Explanation:

The resistance of a wire is given by: R = (ρL)/A

where ρ is the resistivity of the material, L is the length of the wire, A is the cross-sectional area of the wire.

From the formula, we see that the thicker the wire, the larger A, therefore the smaller the resistivity. so, a thick wire will have lower resistivity.

Moreover, the resistance of a wire increases with the temperature. In fact, high temperatures mean more motion of the atoms/electrons inside the wire, so more resistance to the flow of current through it. Therefore, colder temperature means lower resistance.

So, the correct option is thick wire and cold temperature.
