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

so

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

Answer:

The diameter of the largest orbit is 6.52m

Explanation:

First, <u>we will use only magnitudes</u>, as the problem is not asking for directions or any vectorial result.

Second, besides the given data (K=6.5 MeV, B=1.2 T), <u>we have to know that the mass of a proton is 938.3 MeV/C^2, or 1.6726 x 10-27 kg, and that the charge of an electron in magnitude is q=1.6 x 10-19 C</u>.

With this in mind, we use the Lorent'z force:

F=qvB

where <em>q is the electron's charge, v is the velocity of the particles and B is the magnetic field</em>. We also use the definition of force in a circular movement:

F=mv^2r

where <em>m is the mass of the particle and r is the radius</em>. Then, by <u>equalizing both expressions</u> we can clear the radius r

qvB=mv^2r\Leftrightarrow r=\frac{qB}{mv}

and as we can see, we have that data <em>except for the velocity, wich we can calculate using that</em>

K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2\Leftrightarrow v=\sqrt{\frac{2K}{m}}

then

v=\sqrt{\frac{2*6.5Mev}{938.3\frac{Mev}{c^2}}} =35287551\frac{m}{s}

<u>which is the velocity of the protons</u>, and which we replace in our previous result

r=\frac{1.6*10^{-19}*1.2}{1.6727*10^{-27}*35287551}=3.26m

Finally, to calculate the diameter, we multiply r times 2.

A rigid tank internal energy of fluid 800kJ. Fluid loses 500kJ of heat and padle wheel does 100kJ of work. Find final internal e
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

 U₂ = 400 KJ      

Explanation:

Given that

Initial energy of the tank ,U₁= 800 KJ

Heat loses by fluid ,Q= - 500 KJ

Work done on the fluid ,W= - 100 KJ

Sign -

1.Heat rejected by system - negative

2.Heat gain by system - Positive

3.Work done by system = Positive

4.Work done on the system-Negative

Lets take final internal energy =U₂

We know that

Q= U₂ - U₁ + W

-500 = U₂ - 800 - 100

U₂ = -500 +900 KJ

U₂ = 400 KJ

Therefore the final internal energy = 400 KJ

How far will a 600 kg boat travel in 10 s if there is a constant 900 N force on it and it starts from rest?
natta225 [31]

Answer:

here

Explanation:

There are two forces acting upon the skydiver - gravity (down) and air resistance (up). The force of gravity has a magnitude of m•g = (72 kg) •(9.8 m/s/s) = 706 N. ... a 3.25-kg object rightward with a constant acceleration of 1.20 m/s/s if the force of ... of 33.8 kg, how far (in meters) will it move in 1.31 seconds, starting from rest?
