A proton of mass m is at rest when it is suddenly struck head-on by an alpha particle (which consistsof 2 protons and 2 neutrons

) moving at speed v. If the collision is perfectly elastic, what speed will the alpha particle have after the collision

Answer:

3/5 v

Explanation:

The computation of speed will the alpha particle have after the collision is shown below:-

In a perfectly elastic the kinetic energy and collision the momentum are considered.

The velocity of the particles defines the below equation:

VA_f=(\frac{m_A-m_B}{m_A+m_B})VA_i+(\frac{2m_B}{m_A+m_B})VB_i

As we know that

VA_i=v

\\VB_i=0

Here, we consider A is the alpha particle and B is the proton and now by the above values we can solve the equation which is below:-

VA_f=(\frac{4m-m}{4m+m})v

\\VA_f=\frac{3m}{5m}v

\\VA_f=\frac{3}{5}v

Therefore the correct answer is \frac{3}{5}v

Pepsi [2]

Answer:

b) true. The jobs are equal

Explanation:

The work on a body is the scalar product of the force applied by the distance traveled.

    W = F. d

Work is a scalar, the work equation can be developed

    W = F d cos θ

Where θ is the angle between force and displacement

Let's apply these conditions to the exercise

a) False, if we see the expression d cosT is the projection of the displacement in the direction of the force, so there may be several displacement, but its projection is always the same

b) true. The jobs are equal dx = d cosθ

c) False, because the force is equal and the projection of displacement is the same

d) False, knowledge of T is not necessary because the projection of displacement is always the same

e) False mass is not in the definition of work

In a Hydrogen atom an electron rotates around a stationary proton in a circular orbit with an approximate radius of r =0.053nm.
leonid [27]

Answer:

(a): F_e = 8.202\times 10^{-8}\ \rm N.

(b): F_g = 3.6125\times 10^{-47}\ \rm N.

(c): \dfrac{F_e}{F_g}=2.27\times 10^{39}.

Explanation:

Given that an electron revolves around the hydrogen atom in a circular orbit of radius r = 0.053 nm = 0.053\times 10^{-9} m.

Part (a):

According to Coulomb's law, the magnitude of the electrostatic force of interaction between two charged particles of charges q_1 and q_2 respectively is given by

F_e = \dfrac{k|q_1||q_2|}{r^2}

where,

  • k = Coulomb's constant = 9\times 10^9\ \rm Nm^2/C^2.
  • r = distance of separation between the charges.

For the given system,

The Hydrogen atom consists of a single proton, therefore, the charge on the Hydrogen atom, q_1 = +1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C.

The charge on the electron, q_2 = -1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C.

These two are separated by the distance, r = 0.053\times 10^{-9}\ m.

Thus, the magnitude of the electrostatic force of attraction between the electron and the proton is given by

F_e = \dfrac{(9\times 10^9)\times |+1.6\times 10^{-19}|\times |-1.6\times 10^{-19}|}{(0.053\times 10^{-9})^2}=8.202\times 10^{-8}\ \rm N.

Part (b):

The gravitational force of attraction between two objects of masses m_1 and m_1 respectively is given by

F_g = \dfrac{Gm_1m_2}{r^2}.

where,

  • G = Universal Gravitational constant = 6.67\times 10^{-11}\ \rm Nm^2/kg^2.
  • r = distance of separation between the masses.

For the given system,

The mass of proton, m_1 = 1.67\times 10^{-27}\ kg.

The mass of the electron, m_2 = 9.11\times 10^{-31}\ kg.

Distance between the two, r = 0.053\times 10^{-9}\ m.

Thus, the magnitude of the gravitational force of attraction between the electron and the proton is given by

F_g = \dfrac{(6.67\times 10^{-11})\times (1.67\times 10^{-27})\times (9.11\times 10^{-31})}{(0.053\times 10^{-9})^2}=3.6125\times 10^{-47}\ \rm N.

The ratio \dfrac{F_e}{F_g}:

\dfrac{F_e}{F_g}=\dfrac{8.202\times 10^{-8}}{3.6125\times 10^{-47}}=2.27\times 10^{39}.

kkurt [141]

Answer:

2.083 V.

Explanation:

Stopping potential is the potential that is required to stop the current to zero . This potential is applied externally to oppose the potential created by the photoelectric effect . It gives the measure the photoelectric potential being generated .

Here current drops to 25 μA to 19 μA by a potential of 500mV

Change in current

= 25 - 19 = 6 μA

Voltage requirement for unit reduction in current

= 500 / 6 μA

To reduce current 0f 25 μA

requirement of V = (500 / 6 )  x 25 =   2083.33 mV = 2.083 V.
