One electron collides elastically with a second electron initially at rest. After the collision, the radii of their trajectories

are 0.00 cm and 2.30 cm. The trajectories are perpendicular to a uniform magnetic field of magnitude 0.0370 T. Determine the energy (in keV) of the incident electron.

Answer:

63.750KeV

Explanation:

We are given that

Initial velocity of second electron,u_2=0

Radius,r_1=0

r_2=2.3 cm=\frac{2.3}{100}=0.023 m

1 m=100 cm

Magnetic field,B=0.0370 T

We have to determine the energy of the incident electron.

Mass of electron,m=9.1\times 10^{-31} kg

Charge on an electron,q=-1.6\times 10^{-19} C

Velocity,v=\frac{Bqr}{m}

Using the formula

Speed of electron,v_1=\frac{Bqr_1}{m}=\frac{0.0370\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 0}{9.1\times 10^{-31}}=0

Speed of second electron,v_2=\frac{0.0370\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 0.023}{9.1\times 10^{-31}}

v_2=1.5\times 10^8 m/s

Kinetic energy of incident electron=\frac{1}{2}mv^2_1+\frac{1}{2}mv^2_2

Kinetic energy of incident electron=0+\frac{1}{2}(9.1\times 10^{-31})(1.5\times 10^8)^2=1.02\times 10^{-14} J

Kinetic energy of incident electron=\frac{1.02\times 10^{-14}}{1.6\times 10^{-19}}=63750eV=\frac{63750}{1000}=63.750KeV

1KeV=1000eV

A rocket has landed on Planet X, which has half the radius of Earth. An astronaut onboard the rocket weighs twice as much on Pla
Burka [1]

Explanation:

Let acceleration due to Gravity for a planet is given by:

g_X=GM/R^2

Here,g_X = 2g

Escape velocity is given by:

v =\sqrt{ \frac{2GM} {R}} = \sqrt{2aR}

Here, R=R_earth/2

and g_X = 2g

Therefore,v=\sqrt(2(2g)(R/2))=v_0

A racecar experiences a centripetal acceleration of 36.0 m/s2 as it travels at a constant speed of 27.0 m/s along a circular arc
alexdok [17]

Answer:

20.25 m

Explanation:

  • <u>Centripetal acceleration </u>is given by; the square of the velocity, divided by the radius of the circular path.

That is;

         <em><u>ac = v²/r</u></em>

<em>         </em><em><u> Where; ac = acceleration, centripetal, m/s², v is the velocity, m/s and r is the  radius, m</u></em>

Therefore;

r = v²/ac

  = 27²/36

  = 20.25 m

Hence the radius is 20.25 meters

A screen is placed 1.20m behind a single slit. The central maximum in the resulting diffraction pattern on the screen is 1.40cm
andrew11 [14]

Answer:

2.8 cm

Explanation:

y_1 = Separation between two first order diffraction minima = 1.4 cm

D = Distance of screen = 1.2 m

m = Order

Fringe width is given by

\beta_1=\dfrac{y_1}{2}\\\Rightarrow \beta_1=\dfrac{1.4}{2}\\\Rightarrow \beta_1=0.7\ cm

Fringe width is also given by

\beta_1=\dfrac{m_1\lambda D}{d}\\\Rightarrow d=\dfrac{m_1\lambda D}{\beta_1}

For second order

\beta_2=\dfrac{m_2\lambda D}{d}\\\Rightarrow \beta_2=\dfrac{m_2\lambda D}{\dfrac{m_1\lambda D}{\beta_1}}\\\Rightarrow \beta_2=\dfrac{m_2}{m_1}\beta_1

Distance between two second order minima is given by

y_2=2\beta_2

\\\Rightarrow y_2=2\dfrac{m_2}{m_1}\beta_1\\\Rightarrow y_2=2\dfrac{2}{1}\times 0.7\\\Rightarrow y_2=2.8\ cm

The distance between the two second order minima is 2.8 cm
