An alpha particle can be produced in certain radioactive decays of nuclei and consists of two protons and two neutrons. The part

icle has a charge of q = +2e and a mass of 4.00 u, where u is the atomic mass unit, with
1μ= 1.661×10^−27kg

Suppose an alpha particle travels in a circular path of radius 4.50 cm in a uniform magnetic field with B = 1.20 T. Calculate
(a) its speed.
(b) its period of revolution.
(c) its kinetic energy.
(d) the potential difference through which it would have to be accelerated to achieve this energy.

Answer:

Explanation:

charge, q = 2e = 2 x 1.6 x 10^-19 C = 3.2 x 10^-19 C

mass, m = 4 u = 4 x 1.661 x 10^-27 kg = 6.644 x 10^-27 kg

Radius, r = 4.5 cm = 0.045 m

Magnetic field, B = 1.20 T

(a) Let the speed is v.

v=\frac{Bqr}{m}

v=\frac{1.20\times 3.2\times 10^{-19}\times 0.045}{6.644\times 10^{-27}}

v = 2.6 x 10^6 m/s

(b) Let T be the period of revolution

T=\frac{2\pi r}{v}

T=\frac{2\times 3.14\times 0.045}{2.6\times 10^{6}}

T = 1.09 x 10^-7 s

(c) The formula for the kinetic energy is

K=\frac{B^{2}\times q^{2}\times r^{2}}{2m}

K=\frac{\left ( 1.20\times 3.2 \times 10^{-19}\times 0.045 \right )^{2}}{2\times 6.644\times 10^{-27}}

K = 2.25 x 10^-14 J

(d) Let the potential difference is V.

K = qV

V = \frac{K}{q}

V= \frac{2.25\times 10^-14}{3.2\times 10^{-19}}

V = 70312.5 V

GuDViN [60]

The mass is 222g.  No, it is less than 1kg.  There are 1000 grams in a kilogram so it would be 0.222kg.  Hope this Helps :D

The light energy that falls on a square meter of ground over the course of a typical sunny day is about 20 MJ . The average rate
Sphinxa [80]

86.4×10^6 joule is energy does one house use during each 24 hr day.

20 MJ of light energy

Consumption of electricity is 1 kW.

The energy consumption lasts for 24 hours.

energy=power×time

energy=10^3×24×3600

energy=86.4×10^6 joule

Energy in physics is the ability to perform work. Different shapes, such as potential, kinetic, thermal, electrical, chemical, radioactive, etc., may be assumed by it. Other examples of energy being transferred from one body to another include heat and work. Energy is always distributed after it has been transported in accordance with its type. Thus, heat transfer could result in thermal energy, whereas work could result in mechanical energy.

Motion is a trait shared by all forms of energy. For instance, if a body is moving, it has kinetic energy. Due to the object's design, which incorporates potential energy, a tensioned object, like a spring or bow, has the ability to move even when at rest.
