The kinetic energy of a proton and that of an a-particle are 4 eV and 1 eV,
madam [21]

Answer:

  • <u><em>(b) 1:1</em></u>

Explanation:

<u></u>

<u>1. Formulae:</u>

  • 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

<u><em>2. Reasoning</em></u>

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

What is the volume of this bubble when it reaches the surface?
steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

Volume will be 15 mL. Solution:- If we look at the given information then it is Boyle's law as the temperature is constant and the volume changes inversely as the pressure changes. So, the volume of the air bubble at the surface will be 15 mL.

The y-component of the force F which a person exerts on the handle of the box wrench is known to be 86 lb. Determine the x-compo
emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

x-component of force is  38.18 lb where as magnitude of Force is 93.16

Explanation:

Fy of the force F exerted on the handle of the box wrench = 86 lb

Considering the triangle in Fig 1

magnitude of perpendicular = P =  12

magnitude of base = B = 5

using Pythagoras theorem

                        H= \sqrt{P^{2} + B^{2}}

                 H= \sqrt{12^{2} + 5^{2}}

            H=13\\\implies cos \theta = \frac{5}{13} \\\implies sin \theta = \frac{12}{13}\\

y-component of force is given given as:

                              86 = Fsin\theta\\F = 86 (\frac{13}{12})\\F = 93.16 lb\\F_{x} =F cos \theta\\F_{x} = 93.16 (\frac{5}{13})\\F_{x} =38.18 lb.

1. It s defficult to lift a heavier stone than the lighter one. why​
stiks02 [169]

Answer:

lThe effect of the attraction of the earth on a bigger stone can be observed more than the effect of attraction of the earth on a smaller one. hence it is difficult to lift a large stone than the smaller one on the earth surface.
