The momentum of an electron is 1.75 times larger than the value computed non-relativistically. What is the speed of the electron

FrozenT [24]

Answer:

Speed of the electron is 2.46 x 10^8 m/s

Explanation:

momentum of the electron before relativistic effect = $M_{0} V$

where $M_{0}$ is the rest mass of the electron

V is the velocity of the electron.

under relativistic effect, the mass increases.

under relativistic effect, the new mass M will be

M = $M_{0}/ \sqrt{1 - \beta ^{2} }$

where

$\beta = V/c$

c is the speed of light = 3 x 10^8 m/s

V is the speed with which the electron travels.

The new momentum will therefore be

==> $M_{0}V/ \sqrt{1 - \beta ^{2} }$

It is stated that the relativistic momentum is 1.75 times the non-relativistic momentum. Equating, we have

1.75 $M_{0} V$ = $M_{0}V/ \sqrt{1 - \beta ^{2} }$

the equation reduces to

1.75 = $1/ \sqrt{1 - \beta ^{2} }$

square both sides of the equation, we have

3.0625 = 1/ $(1 - \beta ^{2} )$

3.0625 - 3.0625 $\beta ^{2}$ = 1

2.0625 = 3.0625 $\beta ^{2}$

$\beta ^{2}$ = 0.67

β = 0.819

substitute for $\beta = V/c$

V/c = 0.819

V = c x 0.819

V = 3 x 10^8 x 0.819 = 2.46 x 10^8 m/s

A student uses a spring to launch a marble vertically in the air. The mass of the marble is

Fed [463]

Answer:

the maximum height reached by the marble is 11.84 m.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the marble, m = 0.02 kg

extension of the string, x = 0.08 m

force applied to the string, F = 58 N

Apply the principle of conservation of energy;

elastic potential energy = gravitational potential energy

¹/₂fx = mgh

$h = \frac{Fx}{2mg} \\\\h = \frac{58 \ \times \ 0.08}{2 \ \times \ 0.02 \ \times \ 9.8} \\\\h = 11.84 \ m$

Therefore, the maximum height reached by the marble is 11.84 m.

a person can throw a 300 gram ball at 25 m/s the maximum height the person can throw the ball on Earth?

jolli1 [7]

Answer:

Elevation =31.85[m]

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by using the principle of energy conservation. This consists of transforming kinetic energy into potential energy or vice versa. For this specific case is the transformation of kinetic energy to potential energy.

We need to first identify all the input data, and establish a condition or a point where the potential energy is zero.

The point where the ball is thrown shall be taken as a reference point of potential energy.

$E_{p} = E_{k} \\where:\\E_{p}= potential energy [J]\\ E_{k}= kinetic energy [J]$

m = mass of the ball = 300 [gr] = 0.3 [kg]

v = initial velocity = 25 [m/s]

$E_{k}=\frac{1}{2} * m* v^{2} \\E_{k}= \frac{1}{2} * 0.3* (25)^{2} \\E_{k}= 93.75 [J]$

$93.75=m*g*h\\where:\\g = gravity = 9.81 [m/s^2]\\h = elevation [m]\\replacing\\h=\frac{E_{k}}{m*g} \\h=\frac{93.75}{.3*9.81} \\h=31.85[m]$
