The formula for potential energy is
E(p) = mgh

(Mass x gravity x height)

Therefore energy = (5.3)(9.8)(6.6)
= 342.8 J

How did I get 9.8?
9.8 is the constant for gravity

Which best describes the relationship between the direction of energy and wave motion in a transverse wave?
sammy [17]
I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is the second option. The relationship between the direction of energy and wave motion in a transverse wave would be the <span>energy direction is perpendicular to the motion of the wave. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.</span>

The half-life of the reaction gets shorter as the initial concentration is increased. True or False
Art [367]

True

The half-life isn’t applicable to a first order reaction because it does not rely on the concentration of reactant present. However the 2nd order reaction is dependent on the concentration of the reactant present.

The relationship between the half life and the reactant is an inverse one.

The half life is usually reduced or shortened with an increase in the concentration and vice versa.

An unstable particle at rest breaks up into two fragments of unequal mass. The mass of the lighter fragment is equal to 2.90 ✕ 1
motikmotik

Answer:

The speed of the heavier fragment is 0.335c.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the lighter fragment M_{l}=2.90\times10^{-28}\ kg

Mass of the heavier fragment M_{h}=1.62\times10^{-27}\ Kg

Speed of lighter fragment = 0.893c

We need to calculate the speed of the heavier fragment

Let v is the speed of the second fragment after decay

Using conservation of relativistic momentum

0=\drac{m_{1}v_{1}}{\sqrt{1-\dfrac{v_{1}^2}{c^2}}}-\drac{m_{2}v_{2}}{\sqrt{1-\dfrac{v_{1}^2}{c^2}}}

\drac{m_{1}v_{1}}{\sqrt{1-\dfrac{v_{1}^2}{c^2}}}=\drac{m_{2}v_{2}}{\sqrt{1-\dfrac{v_{1}^2}{c^2}}}

\dfrac{2.90\times10^{-28}\times0.893c}{\sqrt{1-(0.893)^2}}=\dfrac{1.62\times10^{-27}v_{2}}{\sqrt{1-\dfrac{v_{2}^2}{c^2}}}

\dfrac{v_{2}}{\sqrt{1-\dfrac{v_{2}^2}{c^2}}}=\dfrac{2.90\times10^{-28}\times0.893c}{1.62\times10^{-27}\times0.45}

\dfrac{v_{2}}{\sqrt{1-\dfrac{v_{2}^2}{c^2}}}=0.355c

\dfrac{v_{2}}{1-\dfrac{v_{2}^{2}}{c^2}}=(0.355c)^2

\dfrac{1-\dfrac{v_{2}^2}{c^2}}{v_{2}^2}=\dfrac{1}{(0.355c)}

\dfrac{1}{v_{2}^2}-\dfrac{1}{c^2}=\dfrac{1}{(0.355c)^2}

\dfrac{1}{v_{2}^2}=\dfrac{1}{c^2}+\dfrac{1}{0.126c^2}

\dfrac{1}{v_{2}^2}=\dfrac{1}{c^2}(1+\dfrac{1}{0.126})

\dfrac{1}{v_{2}^2}=\dfrac{8.93}{c^2}

v_{2}^2=\dfrac{c^2}{8.93}

v_{2}=0.335c

Hence, The speed of the heavier fragment is 0.335c.
