Answer:

Explanation:

Given

mass of first sphere is M and radius R

Mass of other sphere is 8 M and radius 2 R

acceleration of a rolling body in an inclined plane is given by

a=\frac{g\sin \theta }{1+\frac{I}{mR^2}}

where I=moment of Inertia

m=mass of object

R=radius of object

\theta=inclination of plane

Moment of inertia of first body I=\frac{2}{5}MR^2

Moment of inertia other body I'=\frac{2}{5}(8M)(2R)^2=\frac{64}{5}MR^2

acceleration of first body a_1=\frac{g\sin \theta }{1+\frac{\frac{2}{5}MR^2}{MR^2}}

a_1=\frac{5}{7}g\sin \theta

acceleration of second body a_2=\frac{g\sin \theta }{1+\frac{\frac{64}{5}MR^2}{8M(2R)^2}}

a_2=\frac{g\sin \theta }{1+\frac{2}{5}}

a_2=\frac{5}{7}g\sin \theta

thus acceleration of first and second is same therefore they will reach at the same time

Calculate the lowest energy (in ev) for an electron in an infinite well having a width of 0.050 mm.
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

The lowest energy of electron in an infinite well is 1.2*10^-33J.

To find the answer, we have to know more about the infinite well.

<h3>What is the lowest energy of electron in an infinite well?</h3>
  • It is given that, the infinite well having a width of 0.050 mm.
  • We have the expression for energy of electron in an infinite well as,

                  E_n=\frac{n^2h^2}{8mL^2}

  • where;

                m=9.1*10^{-31}kg\\L=0.050*10^{-3}m\\h=6.63*10^{-34}Js\\n=1

  • Thus, the lowest energy of electron in an infinite well is,

                E_1=\frac{(6.63*10^{-34})^2}{8*9.1*10^{-31}*(0.050*10^{-3})}=1.2*10^{-33}J

Thus, we can conclude that, the lowest energy of electron in an infinite well is 1.2*10^-33J.
