Answer:

3.70242 nm

Explanation:

Using Compton effect formula

Δλ = ( h / mec) ( 1 - cosθ)

where h is planck constant = 6.62607 × 10 ⁻³⁴ m²kg/s

me, mass of an electron = 9.11 × 10⁻³¹ kg

c is the speed of light = 3 × 10⁸ m/s

Δλ = 6.62607 × 10 ⁻³⁴ m²kg/s / (9.11 × 10⁻³¹ kg × 3 × 10⁸ m/s ) ( 1 - cos 90°) =   0.242 × 10 ⁻¹¹ m = 2.42 × 10⁻¹² m  = 0.00242 nm

modified wavelength = 3.7 nm + 0.00242 nm = 3.70242 nm

maw [93]

Answer:

shrinks with all the fringes getting narrower

Explanation:

As the light passes through the slit, the diffraction pattern shrinks, as the waves have more opening to penetrate, and the fringes becomes more narrow as a result of that, The opposite happens as the conditions are reversed.

What is the acceleration of a Ford Mustang GT that can go from 0.00 to 27.8<br> m/s in 5.15 seconds?
bixtya [17]
Finding acceleration= final speed-initial speed/time taken (or A=V-U\T)

Finial speed= 27.8s
Initial speed= 0s
Time taken= 5.15

So..

27.8-0/5.15= 5.40m/s (rounded to two decimal places)

A 4.9-MeV (kinetic energy) proton enters a 0.28-T field, in a plane perpendicular to the field. Part APart complete What is the
BartSMP [9]

Answer:

r=1.14m

Explanation:

\theta is the angle between the velocity and the magnetic field. So, the magnetic force on the proton is:

F_m=qvBsen\theta\\F_m=qvBsen(90^\circ)\\F_m=qvB

A charged particle describes a semicircle in a uniform magnetic field. Therefore, applying Newton's second law to uniform circular motion:

F_m=F_c\\qvB=F_c(1)

F_c is the centripetal force and is defined as:

F_c=m\frac{v^2}{r}

Here v is the proton's speed and r is the radius of the circular motion. Replacing this in (1) and solving for r:

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

Recall that 1 J is equal to 6.242*10^{12}MeV, so:

4.9MeV*\frac{1J}{6.242*10^{12}MeV}=7.85*10^{-13}J

We can calculate v from the kinetic energy of the proton:

K=\frac{mv^2}{2}\\\\v=\sqrt{\frac{2K}{m}}\\v=\sqrt{\frac{2(7.85*10^{-13}J)}{1.67*10^{-27}kg}}\\v=3.06*10^{7}\frac{m}{s}

Finally, we calculate the radius of the proton path:

r=\frac{mv}{qB}\\r=\frac{1.67*10^{-27}kg(3.06*10^{7}\frac{m}{s})}{1.6*10^{-19}C(0.28T)}\\r=1.14m
