Normal force is mass x gravity, so mass x 9.81
Answer:
= 4.3 × 10 ⁻¹⁴ m
Explanation:
The alpha particle will be deflected when its kinetic energy is equal to the potential energy
Charge of the alpha particle q₁= 2 × 1.6 × 10⁻¹⁹ C = 3.2 × 10⁻¹⁹ C
Charge of the gold nucleus q₂= 79 × 1.6 × 10⁻¹⁹ = 1.264 × 10⁻¹⁷C
Kinetic energy of the alpha particle = 5.28 × 10⁶ × 1.602 × 10⁻¹⁹ J ( 1 eV)
= 8.459 × 10⁻¹³
k electrostatic force constant = 9 × 10⁹ N.m²/c²
Kinetic energy = potential energy = k q₁q₂ / r where r is the closest distance the alpha particle got to the gold nucleus
r = ( 9 × 10⁹ N.m²/c² × 3.2 × 10⁻¹⁹ C × 1.264 × 10⁻¹⁷C) / 8.459 × 10⁻¹³
= 4.3 × 10 ⁻¹⁴ m
<span>9.50x10^2 newtons
A pascal is defined as 1 newton per square meter. So let's multiply the pressure by the surface area of the box lid.
F = 1.00x10^-2 m^2 * 9.50x10^4 N/m^2 = 9.50x10^2 N
So it will take 9.50x10^2 newtons of force to remove the lid from the box.</span>
They seem to cancel each other out which is odd
Answer:
Thus the time taken is calculated as 387.69 years
Solution:
As per the question:
Half life of
= 28.5 yrs
Now,
To calculate the time, t in which the 99.99% of the release in the reactor:
By using the formula:

where
N = No. of nuclei left after time t
= No. of nuclei initially started with

(Since, 100% - 99.99% = 0.01%)
Thus

Taking log on both the sides:


t = 387.69 yrs
