Does a calculation lose any information when converted from centimeters to meters? Explain

Physics
1 answer:
german4 years ago
7 0

Answer:

No

Explanation:

There are many units that are used to measure length of an object. For example centimeters, meters, millimeters etc.

There is a relationship between any of two units to measure lengths. If we want to convert some length from cm to m, it can be done as follows :

1 cm = 0.01 m

or

1 m = 100 cm

When we use this conversion, the calculation remains the same. Only the way to represent it will be different.

Hence, there is no lose of information when converted from centimeters to meters.

Readme [11.4K]

Answer:r_0=3.037\times 10^{-14}m

Explanation:

Given

charge on alpha particle=+2e

mass of alpha particle=6.64\times 10^{-27} kg

Charge on gold nucleus=+79e

Velocity at r=1m is 1.9\times 10^{7}

Using Energy conservation

Kinetic energy of particle will be converting to Potential energy as it approaches to nucleus

therefore

\frac{1}{2}mv^2+U_{r=1m}=U_{closest\ to\ nucleus}

\frac{1}{2}\left ( 6.64\times 10^{-27}\right )\left ( 1.9\times 10^{7}^2\right )+\frac{K\left ( 2e\right )\left ( 79e\right )}{1}=\frac{K\left ( 2e\right )\left ( 79e\right )}{r_0}

\frac{1}{2}\left ( 6.64\times 10^{-27}\right )\left ( 1.9\times 10^{7}^2\right )=\frac{9\times 10^9\times 158\times \left ( 1.6\times 10^{-19}\right )}{y}\left [\frac{1}{r_0}-\frac{1}{1}\right ]

on solving we get

\frac{1}{r_0}=3.292\times 10^{13}

r_0=3.037\times 10^{-14}m

A boy shooting a rubber band across the classroom --> 
Elastic potential energy transformed into kinetic energy 
<span>The initial energy is the energy stored in the muscles of the boy's arm, which is elastic potential energy. This is converted into motion of the rubber, therefore kinetic energy

A child going down a slide on a playground --> </span>Gravitational potential energy transformed into kinetic energy 
On top of the slide, all the energy of the child is gravitational potential energy due to its height with respect to the ground (E=mgh). when it moves down the slide, this is converted into kinetic energy, because the child acquires a speed v (E=1/2 mv^2)
