Answer:
9.73 x 10⁻¹⁰ m
Explanation:
According to Heisenberg uncertainty principle
Uncertainty in position x uncertainty in momentum ≥ h / 4π
Δ X x Δp ≥ h / 4π
Δp = mΔV
ΔV = Uncertainty in velocity
= 2 x 10⁻⁶ x 3 / 100
= 6 x 10⁻⁸
mass m = 0.9 x 10⁻¹⁵ x 10⁻³ kg
m = 9 x 10⁻¹⁹
Δp = mΔV
= 9 x 10⁻¹⁹ x 6 x 10⁻⁸
= 54 x 10⁻²⁷
Δ X x Δp ≥ h / 4π
Δ X x 54 x 10⁻²⁷ ≥ h / 4π
Δ X = h / 4π x 1 / 54 x 10⁻²⁷

= 9.73 x 10⁻¹⁰ m
Answer:
<em>60008.4 J</em>
<em></em>
Explanation:
The mass of each kid = 30 kg
mass of the cart = 20 kg
The speed of the cart down the hill = 30 km/hr = 30 x 1000/3600 = 8.33 m/s
The height of the hill = 80 m
The potential energy of the boys at the top of the hill = mgh
where
m is the total mass of the kids and the cart = (30 x 2) + 20 = 80 kg
g is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s^2
h is their height above the ground = 80 m (on the top of the hill)
substituting, we have
potential energy PE = 80 x 9.81 x 80 = 62784 J
At an instance at the bottom of the hill
their kinetic energy =
where
v is their velocity = 8.33 m/s
m is their total mass = 80 kg
substituting, we have
kinetic energy KE = = 2775.6 J
Total work done on the cart is equal to the energy lost by the cart when it reached the bottom of the hill
work done by friction = PE - KE = 62784 - 2775.6 = <em>60008.4 J</em>
