suppose that a particle at rest with mass m decays into a photon and another particle with mass m/2 , which recoilds in a direct

ion opposite to the photon. Using the conservation of energy and momentum find the momentum of the recoiling particle

Answer:

p_r=\frac{h}{\lambda}

Explanation:

To find the momentum of the recoiling particle you can use the momentum formula for a photon:

p=\frac{h}{\lambda}

before the decay the momentum is zero. Hence, after the decay the momentum of the photon plus the momentum of the recoiling particle must be zero:

p_a=p_b\\\\\frac{h}{\lambda}-\frac{m}{2}v=0\\\\p_r=\frac{m}{2}v=\frac{h}{\lambda}

where pr is the momentum of the recoiling particle.

A long solenoid that has 1,140 turns uniformly distributed over a length of 0.350 m produces a magnetic field of magnitude 1.00
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

I = 2.4 *10^{-2} A = 2.4 mA

Explanation:

The magnetic field B inside long solenoid with current I is given as

B = \frac{N \mu_o I}{L}

where

N is number of turn of solenoids = 1140 turns

\mu_0 = 4*\pi *10^{-7} T.m

I is current that passes through solenoid

L is length along which current pass = 0.350 m

plugging value to get required value of current

1.00*10^{-4} = \frac{1140*4*\pi *10^{-7} I}{0.350}

I = 2.4 *10^{-2} A = 2.4 mA

A 26-g steel-jacketed bullet is fired with a velocity of 630 m/s toward a steel plate and ricochets along path CD with a velocit
Alecsey [184]

Answer:

  F = - 3.53 10⁵ N

Explanation:

This problem must be solved using the relationship between momentum and the amount of movement.

          I = F t = Δp

To find the time we use that the average speed in the contact is constant (v = 600m / s), let's use the uniform movement ratio

        v = d / t

        t = d / v

Reduce SI system

          m = 26 g ( 1 kg/1000g) = 26 10⁻³ kg

          d = 50 mm ( 1m/ 1000 mm) = 50 10⁻³ m

Let's calculate

         t = 50 10⁻³ / 600

         t = 8.33 10⁻⁵ s

With this value we use the momentum and momentum relationship

        F t = m v - m v₀

As the bullet bounces the speed sign after the crash is negative

       F = m (v-vo) / t

       F = 26 10⁻³ (-500 - 630) / 8.33 10⁻⁵

       F = - 3.53 10⁵ N

The negative sign indicates that the force is exerted against the bullet

The histogram below shows the number of downloads of a song over time.
Allisa [31]

Given data:

  • It is a graphical display where the data is grouped in to ranges
  • A diagram consists rectangles, whose area is proportional to frequency of a variable and whose width is equal to the class interval.
  • It is an accurate representation of the distribution of numerical data.

<em>From Figure:</em>  

        Each box in the graph (small rectangle box) is assumed to be one download. So, in the graph the time between 8 p.m to 9 p.m, the number of downloads are 8.75 approximately (because the last box is incomplete, therefore 8 complete boxes and 9th is more than half).

<em>So, We conclude that the total number of downloads are approximately 9 in the time span of 8 p.m. to 9 p.m.</em>
