Tutorial Exercise An unstable atomic nucleus of mass 1.83 10-26 kg initially at rest disintegrates into three particles. One of

the particles, of mass 5.03 10-27 kg, moves in the y direction with a speed of 6.00 106 m/s. Another particle, of mass 8.47 10-27 kg, moves in the x direction with a speed of 4.00 106 m/s. (a) Find the velocity of the third particle. (b) Find the total kinetic energy increase in the process

Answer:

A) v3 = -[6.29 × 10^(6)]j^ - [7.06 × 10^(6)]i^

B) K_total = 373.08 × 10^(-15) J

Explanation:

We are given;

Mass of unstable atomic nucleus; M = 1.83 × 10^(-26) kg

Mass of first particle; m1 = 5.03 × 10^(-27) kg

Speed of first particle in y-direction; v1 = (6 × 10^(6) m/s) j^

Mass of second particle; m2 = 8.47 × 10^(-27) kg

Speed of second particle in x - direction; v2 = (4 × 10^(6) m/s) i^

Now, we don't have the mass of the third particle but since we are told the unstable atomic nucleus disintegrates into 3 particles, thus;

M = m1 + m2 + m3

1.83 × 10^(-26) = (5.03 × 10^(-27)) + (8.47 × 10^(-27)) + m3

m3 = (1.83 × 10^(-26)) - (13.5 × 10^(-27))

m3 = 4.8 × 10^(-27) kg

A) Applying law of conservation of momentum, we have;

MV = (m1 × v1) + (m2 × v2) + (m3 × v3)

Now, the unstable atomic nucleus was at rest before disintegration, thus V = 0 m/s.

Thus, we now have;

0 = (m1 × v1) + (m2 × v2) + (m3 × v3)

We want to find the velocity of the third particle v3. Let's make it the subject of the formula;

v3 = [(m1 × v1) + (m2 × v2)]/(-m3)

Plugging in the relevant values, we have;

v3 = [(5.03 × 10^(-27) × 6 × 10^(6))j^ + (8.47 × 10^(-27) × 4 × 10^(6))i^]/(-4.8 × 10^(-27))

v3 = [(30.18 × 10^(-21))j^ + (33.88 × 10^(-21))i^]/(-4.8 × 10^(-27))

v3 = -[6.29 × 10^(6)]j^ - [7.06 × 10^(6)]i^

B) Formula for kinetic energy is;

K = ½mv²

Now,total kinetic energy is;

K_total = K1 + K2 + K3

K1 = ½ × 5.03 × 10^(-27) × (6 × 10^(6))²

K1 = 90.54 × 10^(-15) J

K2 = ½ × 8.47 × 10^(-27) × (4 × 10^(6))²

K2 = 67.76 × 10^(-15)

To find K3, let's first find the magnitude of v3 because it's still in vector form.

Thus;

v3 = √[(-6.29 × 10^(6))² + (-7.06 × 10^(6))²]

v3 = 9.46 × 10^(6) m/s

K3 = ½ × 4.8 × 10^(-27) × (9.46 × 10^(6))²

K3 = 214.78 × 10^(-15) J

K_total = (90.54 × 10^(-15)) + (67.76 × 10^(-15)) + (214.78 × 10^(-15))

K_total = 373.08 × 10^(-15) J

11. A seesaw sits in static equilibrium. A child with a mass of 30 kg sits 1 m away from a pivot point. Another child sits 0.75
lora16 [44]

Answer:

<h2>40 kg</h2>

Explanation:

Find the diagram relating to the question for proper explanation of the question below.

Using the principle of moment

Sum of clockwise moments = Sum of anticlockwise moments

Moment = Force * perpendicular distance

For anti-clockwise moment:

Since the 30 kg moves in the anticlockwise direction according to the diagram

ACW moment = 30 * 1 = 30 kgm

For clockwise moment

If another child sits 0.75 m away from the pivot point on the opposite side, moment of the child in clockwise direction = M * 0.75 = 0.75M (M is the mass of the unknown child).

Equating both moments we have;

0.75M = 30

M = 30/0.75

M = 40 kg

The second child's mass is 40 kg

Draw a winding path that covers a distance of 70 miles and finishes with a displacement 20 miles soulthwest of the starting poin
EleoNora [17]

Distance is indeed a scalar amount that also refers to "<em><u>how the ground an object has encased</u></em>", and the Displacement is a vector thing that leads "<em><u>to the extent to which an object is located</u></em>", and the further calculation can be defined as follows:

Given:

distance= 70 miles

displacement = 20 miles

  • Displacement formula: \bold{Velocity = \frac{displacement}{time}}
  • Distance formula: \bold{Distance = speed \times time}

Please find the graph in the attached file.

A 8.0 cm-diameter horizontal pipe gradually narrows to 4.5 cm. When water flows through this pipe at a certain rate, the gauge p
Fed [463]

Answer:

7.11x10^-3

Explanation:

We are to get the volume rate of flows

1/2pv1² + pl = 1/2pv2²

Such that A1V1 = A2V2

V1 = A2V2/A1

From the attachment I uploaded, we have a formula named equation 1 from which I have plugged in these values

P2 = 33000

P2 = 24000

P = 1000

r2 = 2.25

r1 = 4

When we put these values into the equation,

V2 = 4.47

A2V2 = pi(0.0225)²x4.47

= 7.7x19^-3m³/s

Say you dropped a cannonball from the 17.0–meter mast of a ship sailing at 2.0 meters/second. How far from the base of the mast
Mice21 [21]

The correct choice is A. 0 meters.

If you simply dropped the cannonball and didn't throw it horizontally,

then it'll fall straight down the mast and land on the deck right next to

the mast.


While you were up there holding it, before you dropped it, the cannonball

was moving horizontally, at 2.0 meters/second, along with the rest of the

ship and everything else aboard. It continued doing that after it dropped,

and from the point of view (in the reference frame) of the mast and everyone

on the ship, it fell straight down, parallel to the mast.


Now that we have that question answered, we can proceed to the more-

important ones. I answered the easy one, but YOU'll have to answer these:


==> WHY did you climb the mast carrying a cannonball ?

Have you been drinking sea water or bad rum ?


==> WHY did you drop it, and never even yell "LOOK OUT BELOW !" ?


==> How many formerly-able-bodied souls were injured by the

plummeting cannonball ?


==> What did everybody ELSE yell after the impact ?


==> What did they do to you after they brought you down ?
