Answer:

\Delta x = 1.807 \times 10^{-10}m

Explanation:

mass of proton, m = 1.67 x 10^-27 kg

speed of proton, v = 350 km/s = 350,000 m/s

Momentum of proton, p = mass x speed

p =  1.67 x 10^-27 x 350000 = 5.845 x 10^-22 kg m /s

uncertainty in momentum, Δp = 0.1 % of p

Δp = \frac{0.1\times 5.845 \times 10^{-22}}{100}=5.845 \times 10^{-25}

According to the principle

\Delta x\times \Delta p \geq  \frac{h}{2\pi }

where, Δx be the uncertainty in position

\Delta x\times 5.845 \times 10^{-25}=  \frac{6.634 \times 10^{-34}}{2\times 3.14}

\Delta x = 1.807 \times 10^{-10}m

If V has a magnitude of 14 units and the same direction qs a vector 3i+6j+2k find v​
melomori [17]

Answer:

v = 6i + 12j + 4k

Explanation:

Find the magnitude of the direction vector.

√(3² + 6² + 2²) = 7

Normalize the direction vector.

3/7 i + 6/7 j + 2/7 k

Multiply by the magnitude of v.

v = 14 (3/7 i + 6/7 j + 2/7 k)

v = 6i + 12j + 4k

20 kg object travels 28 meter and stops. coefficient friction= 0.085 how much work was done by friction?
Tresset [83]
Assuming it is on a horizontal surface:
friction = μR
R = 20g (g is gravity 9.81)
so Friction = 0.085 x 20g
Work done is force x distance 
so Work done = 0.085 x 20g x 28
 = 466.956 J
