Answer:

(a)20.65g

(b)0.19m

Explanation:

(a) The total mass would be it's mass per length multiplied by the total lenght

0.355(50 + 23*0.355) = 20.65 g

(b) The center of mass would be at point c where the mass on the left and on the right of c is the same

Hence the mass on the left side would be half of its total mass which is 20.65/2 = 10.32 g

c(50 + 23c) = 10.32

23c^2 + 50c - 10.32 = 0

c \approx 0.19m

What is the momentum of a photon having the same total energy as an electron with a kinetic energy of 100 keV?
statuscvo [17]

Answer:

The momentum of the photon is 1.707 x 10⁻²² kg.m/s

Explanation:

Given;

kinetic of electron, K.E = 100 keV = 100,000 eV = 100,000  x 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ J = 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁴ J

Kinetic energy is given as;

K.E = ¹/₂mv²

where;

v is speed of the electron

K.E = \frac{1}{2}mv^2\\\\mv^2 = 2K.E \\\\v^2 = \frac{2K.E}{m} \\\\v = \sqrt{\frac{2K.E}{m}} \\\\but \ momentum ,P = mv\\\\(v)m = (\sqrt{\frac{2K.E}{m}})m\\\\P_{photon} =  (\sqrt{\frac{2K.E}{m_e}})m_e\\\\P_{photon} =  (\sqrt{\frac{2\times 1.6\times 10^{-14}}{9.11\times10^{-31}}})(9.11\times 10^{-31})\\\\P_{photon} = 1.707 \times 10^{-22} \ kg.m/s

Therefore, the momentum of the photon is 1.707 x 10⁻²² kg.m/s

Why do blades come in different lengths in a jig saw sander?​
trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

To determine the minimum blade length, add 1" to the workpiece thickness. One type of material, and some materials can be cut by more than one type of blade. No matter the material, there's likely a jigsaw blade designed specifically for. Armed with the right blade, follow these pointers to make your work go (and cut) .
