Brad walks and jogs to schooll every day. He averages 5 km/hr walking and 9 km/hr jogging. The distane from home to shool is 6 k

m, and the total trip takes 1 hour. How far does Brad walk?

We know that
Distance = speed x time
Let w be the time Brad spent walking. The time spent jogging will be 1 - w
6 = 5w + 9(1 - w)
w = 0.75 hours
Distance walked = 0.75 x 5
= 3.75 km

A muon has a rest mass energy of 105.7 MeV, and it decays into an electron and a massless particle. If all the lost mass is conv

sergeinik [125]

Answer:

The electron’s velocity is 0.9999 c m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Rest mass energy of muon = 105.7 MeV

We know the rest mass of electron = 0.511 Mev

We need to calculate the value of γ

Using formula of energy

$K_{rel}=(\gamma-1)mc^2$

$\dfrac{K_{rel}}{mc^2}=\gamma-1$

Put the value into the formula

$\gamma=\dfrac{105.7}{0.511}+1$

$\gamma=208$

We need to calculate the electron’s velocity

Using formula of velocity

$\gamma=\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{1-(\dfrac{v}{c})^2}}$

$\gamma^2=\dfrac{1}{1-\dfrac{v^2}{c^2}}$

$\gamma^2-\gamma^2\times\dfrac{v^2}{c^2}=1$

$v^2=\dfrac{1-\gamma^2}{-\gamma^2}\times c^2$

Put the value into the formula

$v^2=\dfrac{1-(208)^2}{-208^2}\times c^2$

$v=c\sqrt{\dfrac{1-(208)^2}{-208^2}}$

$v=0.9999 c\ m/s$

Hence, The electron’s velocity is 0.9999 c m/s.

A superball and a clay ball are dropped from a height of 10cm above a tabletop. They have the same mass 0.05kg and the same size

Olenka [21]

Answer:4.08 N

Explanation:

Given data

superball dropped from a height of 10 cm

Mass of ball $\left ( m\right )$ =0.05kg

time of contact $\left ( t\right )$ =34.3 $\times 10^{-3}$ s

Now we know impulse = $Force\times time\ of\ contact$ =Change in momentum

$F_{average}\times t$ = $m\left ( v-(-v)\right )$

and velocity at the bottom is given by

v= $\sqrt{2gh}$

$F_{average}\times 34.3\times 10^{-3}$ = $0.05\left ( 1.4-(-1.4)\right )$

$F_{average}$ =4.081N

The _____ numbers equals the _____ of ______ electrons

suter [353]

The atomic number equals the number of protons and electrons (in a neutral atom)

Explanation:

An atom is composed of three types of particles:

Protons: they are found in the nucleus of the atom. They are positively charged ( $q=+1.6\cdot 10^{-19}C$ ) and have a mass of approximately $m=1.67\cdot 10^{-27}kg$
Neutrons: they are also found in the nucleus. They have no electric charge and have a mass slightly larger than that of protons
Electrons: they orbit around the nucleus. They have negative electric charge ( $q=-1.6\cdot 10^{-19}C$ ) and are much lighter than protons, having a mass of $m=9.11\cdot 10^{-31} kg$ .

An atom is also identified by two numbers:

Atomic number (Z): it is equal to the number of protons in the nucleus
Mass number (A): it is equal to the number of protons+neutrons in the nucleus

For a neutral atom, the net electric charge is zero: this means that the number of protons equals the number of electrons. But since the number of protons corresponds to the atomic number Z, this means that the atomic number is also equal to the number of electrons, for a neutral atom.
