The kinetic energy of a proton and that of an a-particle are 4 eV and 1 eV,

madam [21]

Answer:

(b) 1:1

Explanation:

1. Formulae:

E = hf

E = h.v/λ

λ = h/(mv)

E = (1/2)mv²

Where:

E = kinetic energy of the particle
λ = de-Broglie wavelength
m = mass of the particle
v = speed of the particle
h = Planck constant

2. Reasoning

An alha particle contains 2 neutrons and 2 protons, thus its mass number is 4.

A proton has mass number 1.

Thus, the relative masses of an alpha particle and a proton are:

$\dfrac{m_\alpha}{m_p}=4$

For the kinetic energies you find:

$\dfrac{E_\alpha}{E_p}=\dfrac{m_\alpha \times v_\alpha^2}{m_p\times v_p^2}$

$\dfrac{1eV}{4eV}=\dfrac{4\times v_\alpha^2}{1\times v_p^2}\\\\\\\dfrac{v_p^2}{v_\alpha^2}=16\\\\\\\dfrac{v_p}{v_\alpha}=4$

Thus:

$\dfrac{m_\alpha}{m_p}=4=\dfrac{v_p}{v__\alpha}$

$m_\alpha v_\alpha=m_pv_p$

From de-Broglie equation, λ = h/(mv)

$\dfrac{\lambda_p}{\lambda_\alpha}=\dfrac{m_\lambda v_\lambda}{m_pv_p}=\dfrac{1}{1}=1:1$

A 1000-turn solenoid is 50 cm long and has a radius of 2.0 cm. It carries a current of 18.0 A. What is the magnetic field inside

vitfil [10]

Answer:

The value is $B = 0.0452 \ T$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The number of turns is N = 1000

The length is L = 50 cm = 0.50 m

The radius is r = 2.0 cm = 0.02 m

The current is I = 18.0 A

Generally the magnetic field is mathematically represented as

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

Here $\mu_o$ is the permeability of free space with value

$\mu_o = 4\pi * 10^{-7} N/A^2$

$B = 4\pi * 10^{-7} * \frac{1000}{0.50} * 18.0$

=> $B = 0.0452 \ T$

"A block of metal weighs 40 N in air and 30 N in water. What is the buoyant force on the block due to the water? The density of

Alja [10]

Answer:

buoyant force on the block due to the water= 10 N

Explanation:

We know that

buoyant force(F_B) on a block= weight of the block in air (actual weight) - weight of block in water.

Given:

A block of metal weighs 40 N in air and 30 N in water.

F_B = 40-30= 10 N

therefore, buoyant force on the block due to the water= 10 N
