Answer:

The energy required to accelerate an electron is 0.582 Mev and 0.350 Mev.

Explanation:

We know that,

Mass of electron m_{e}=9.11\times10^{-31}\ kg

Rest mass energy for electron = 0.511 Mev

(a). The energy required to accelerate an electron from 0.500c to 0.900c Mev

Using formula of rest,

E=\dfrac{E_{0}}{\sqrt{1-\dfrac{v_{f}^2}{c^2}}}-\dfrac{E_{0}}{\sqrt{1-\dfrac{v_{i}^2}{c^2}}}

E=\dfrac{0.511}{\sqrt{1-\dfrac{(0.900c)^2}{c^2}}}-\dfrac{0.511}{\sqrt{1-\dfrac{(0.500c)^2}{c^2}}}

E=0.582\ Mev

(b). The energy required to accelerate an electron from 0.900c to 0.942c Mev

Using formula of rest,

E=\dfrac{E_{0}}{\sqrt{1-\dfrac{v_{f}^2}{c^2}}}-\dfrac{E_{0}}{\sqrt{1-\dfrac{v_{i}^2}{c^2}}}

E=\dfrac{0.511}{\sqrt{1-\dfrac{(0.942c)^2}{c^2}}}-\dfrac{0.511}{\sqrt{1-\dfrac{(0.900c)^2}{c^2}}}

E=0.350\ Mev

Hence, The energy required to accelerate an electron is 0.582 Mev and 0.350 Mev.

The Steamboat Geyser in Yellowstone National Park shoots water into the air at 48.0 m/s. How
qwelly [4]

Answer:

The maximum height reached by the water is 117.55 m.

Explanation:

Given;

initial velocity of the water, u = 48 m/s

at maximum height the final velocity will be zero, v = 0

the water is going upwards, i.e in the negative direction of gravity, g = -9.8 m/s².

The maximum height reached by the water is calculated as follows;

v² = u² + 2gh

where;

h is the maximum height reached by the water

0 = u² + 2gh

0 = (48)² + ( 2 x -9.8 x h)

0 = 2304 - 19.6h

19.6h = 2304

h = 2304 / 19.6

h = 117.55 m

Therefore, the maximum height reached by the water is 117.55 m.

An hydrogen molecule consists of two hydrogen atoms whose total mass is 3.3×10−27 kg and whose moment of inertia about an axis p
dlinn [17]

Answer:

6.9631\times 10^{-11}\ m

Explanation:

I = Moment of inertia = 4\times 10^{-48}\ kg m^2

m = Mass of two atoms = 2m = 3.3\times 10^{-27}\ kg

r  = distance between axis and rotation mass

Moment of inertia of the system is given by

I=mr^2\\\Rightarrow I=2mr^2\\\Rightarrow 4\times 10^{-48}=3.3\times 10^{-27}\times r^2\\\Rightarrow r=\sqrt{\frac{4\times 10^{-48}}{3.3\times 10^{-27}}}\\\Rightarrow r=3.48155\times 10^{-11}\ m

The distance between the atoms will be two times the distance between axis and rotation mass.

d=2r\\\Rightarrow d=2\times 3.48155\times 10^{-11}\\\Rightarrow d=6.9631\times 10^{-11}\ m

Therefore, the distance between the two atoms is 6.9631\times 10^{-11}\ m

What will happen if we put a magnet in cold water
gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

cold water strengthens the magnetic attractive force.

Explanation:

The molecules within the magnet will move slower because they have less kinetic energy,so there is less vibration within the magnets molecules.
