A mass spectrometer is being used to monitor air pollutants. it is difficult, however, to separate molecules with nearly equal m

ass such as Co (28.0106 u) and N2 (28.0134 u).
How large a radius of curvature must a spectrometer have if these two molecules are to be separated on the film by 0.25 mm ?

Answer:

The answer is 1250 mm

Explanation:

The path that particles move in the spectrometer is semicircular. Each of the particles has a displacement of twice the radius (2r) from the entrance to where the film is hit. According to the exercise, if the separation between the two molecules is 0.25 mm, then the difference in the radius of the molecules is equal to 0.125 mm. The ratio of mass/radius is equal for molecules, and therefore is equal to:

m = q * B * r / v

m/r = constant

(m/r)CO = (m/r)N = (28.0106 u/r) = (28.0134 u/(r + 0.000125 m))

Clearing and solving r:

r = 1.25 m = 1250 mm

A neutral atom of uranium (U) has 146 neutrons and a mass number of 238. How many protons does it have?
BARSIC [14]

Answer:

92 protons

Explanation:

The mass number is 238 , so the nucleus has  <u>238  particles</u> in total, including <u>146 neutrons</u>.  So to calculate the number of neutrons we have to subtract:  238  −  146  =  92

An automobile of mass 2000 kg moving at 30 m/s is braked suddenly with a constant braking force of 10000 N. How far does the car
saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

The car traveled the distance before stopping is 90 m.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of automobile = 2000 kg

speed = 30 m/s

Braking force = 10000 N

For, The acceleration is

Using newton's formula

F = ma

Where, f = force

m= mass

a = acceleration

Put the value of F and m into the formula

-10000 =2000\times a

Negative sing shows the braking force.

It shows the direction of force is opposite of the motion.

a = -\dfrac{10000}{2000}

a=-5\ m/s^2

For the distance,

Using third equation of motion

v^2-u^2=2as

Where, v= final velocity

u = initial velocity

a = acceleration

s = stopping distance of car

Put the value in the equation

0-30^2=2\times(-5)\times s

s = 90\ m

Hence, The car traveled the distance before stopping is 90 m.
