Metamorphic rock undergoes weathering, erosion; the particles are deposited and undergo lithification.

Answer:

$r_B = 1.88 m$

Explanation:

As we know that work done by electric force is given as

$W_e = -q\Delta V$

so here we know that charge is moving from

$r_A = 2.97 m$

to another position

so we will have

$W_{AB} = \frac{kq_1q_2}{r_A} - \frac{kq_1q_2}{r_B}$

$-6.95\times 10^{-9} = (9\times 10^9)(8.65\times 10^{-8})(4.56\times 10^{-11})(\frac{1}{2.97} - \frac{1}{r_B})$

$-0.196 = (\frac{1}{2.97} - \frac{1}{r_B})$

$r_B = 1.88 m$

An proton-antiproton pair is produced by a 2.20 × 10 3 MeV photon. What is the kinetic energy of the antiproton if the kinetic e

timama [110]

Answer:

K = 80.75 MeV

Explanation:

To calculate the kinetic energy of the antiproton we need to use conservation of energy:

$E_{ph} = E_{p} + E_{ap} = E_{0p} + K_{p} + E_{0ap} + K_{ap} = m_{0p}c^{2} + K_{p} + m_{0ap}c^{2} + K_{ap}$

where $E_{ph}$ : is the photon energy, $E_{0p} and E_{0ap}$ : are the rest energies of the proton and the antiproton, respectively, equals to m₀c², $K_{p} and K_{ap}$ : are the kinetic energies of the proton and the antiproton, respectively, c: speed of light, and m₀: rest mass.

Therefore the kinetic energy of the antiproton is:

$K_{ap} = E_{ph} - m_{0p}c^{2} - K_{p} - m_{0ap}c^{2}$

The proton mass is equal to the antiproton mass, so:

$K_{ap} = E_{ph} - 2m_{0p}c^{2} - K_{p}$

$K_{ap} = 2.20 \cdot 10^{3}MeV - 2(1.67 \cdot 10^{-27}kg)(3\cdot 10^{8} \frac {m}{s})^{2} - 242.85MeV$

$K_{ap} = 2.20 \cdot 10^{3}MeV - 2(1.67 \cdot 10^{-27}kg)(3\cdot 10^{8} \frac {m}{s})^{2}(\frac{1eV}{1.602 \cdot 10^{-19}J})(\frac{1 MeV}{10^{6}eV}) - 242.85MeV$

$K_{ap} = 80.75 MeV$

Hence, the kinetic energy of the antiproton is 80.75 MeV.

I hope it helps you!

The most common units for expressing the density of a substance are the g/cm3.

Luden [163]

True.

Density = mass / volume, Unit = g / cm³.

This is a common unit because of its affiliation with the SI unit and because that also our popular liquid which is water = 1 g/cm³

Plz Help me with this

AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

Cools ; size

Explanation:

The rate at which magma cools determines the size of the crystals in the new rock. Igneous rocks are formed from the cooling and solidification of molten magma which finds its way to the surface or depth of very low pressure beneath the surface. This place or depth of cooling of magma affects the cooling rate and hence the size of the crystals formed. Igneous rocks formed at depths below the surface have more time to cool and allows more time for Crystal growth and hence produce coarse grained crystal grains called Intrusive igneous rocks which have significantly larger crystals than those formed on the surface which cools rapidly and allowing very little time for crystal growth giving rise to the formation of fine grained crystals and are called extrusive igneous rocks.
