Answer:
The neutron loses all of its kinetic energy to nucleus.
Explanation:
Given:
Mass of neutron is 'm' and mass of nucleus is 'm'.
The type of collision is elastic collision.
In elastic collision, there is no loss in kinetic energy of the system. So, total kinetic energy is conserved. Also, the total momentum of the system is conserved.
Here, the nucleus is still. So, its initial kinetic energy is 0. So, the total initial kinetic energy will be equal to kinetic energy of the neutron only.
Now, final kinetic energy of the system will be equal to the initial kinetic energy.
Now, as the nucleus was at rest initially, so the final kinetic energy of the nucleus will be equal to the initial kinetic energy of the neutron.
Thus, all the kinetic energy of the neutron will be transferred to the nucleus and the neutron will come to rest after collision.
Therefore, the neutron loses all of its kinetic energy to nucleus.
Speed= distance/time
Speed= 150000m/7200s=20.83m/s(cor.to.2d.p.)
Explanation:
Given that,
Weight of water = 25 kg
Temperature = 23°C
Weight of mass = 32 kg
Distance = 5 m
(a). We need to calculate the amount of work done on the water
Using formula of work done



The amount of work done on the water is 1568 J.
(b). We need to calculate the internal-energy change of the water
Using formula of internal energy
The change in internal energy of the water equal to the amount of the work done on the water.


The change in internal energy is 1568 J.
(c). We need to calculate the final temperature of the water
Using formula of the change internal energy





The final temperature of the water is 23.01°C.
(d). The amount of heat removed from the water to return it to it initial temperature is the change in internal energy.
The amount of heat is 1568 J.
Hence, This is the required solution.
