Alpha particles, each having a charge of +2e and a mass of 6.64 ×10-27 kg, are accelerated in a uniform 0.50 T magnetic field to

a final orbit radius of 0.50 m. The field is perpendicular to the velocity of the particles. What is the kinetic energy of an alpha particle in the final orbit? (1 eV = 1.60 × 10-19 J, e = 1.60 × 10-19 C)

Answer:

KE=1.2036\times 10^{-12}\ J

Explanation:

Given:

  • charge on the alpha particle, q=2e=3.2\times 10^{-19}\ C
  • mass of the alpha particle, m=6.64\times 10^{-27}\ kg
  • strength of a uniform magnetic field, B=0.5\ T
  • radius of the final orbit, r=0.5\ m

<u>During the motion of a charge the magnetic force and the centripetal forces are balanced:</u>

q.v.B=m.\frac{v^2}{r}

m.v=q.B.r

where:

v = velocity of the alpha particle

v=\frac{q.B.r}{m}

v=\frac{3.2\times 10^{-19}\times 0.5\times 0.5}{6.64\times 10^{-27}}

v=1.2048\times 10^{7}\ m.s^{-1}

Here we observe that the velocity of the aprticle is close to the velocity of light. So the kinetic energy will be relativistic.

<u>We firstly find the relativistic mass as:</u>

m'=\frac{1}{\sqrt{1-\frac{v^2}{c^2} } } \times m

m'=\frac{6.64\times 10^{-27}}{\sqrt{1-\frac{(1.2048\times 10^7)^2}{(3\times 10^8)^2} } }

m'=6.6533\times10^{-27}\ kg

now kinetic energy:

KE=m'.c-m.c

KE=6.6533\times 10^{-27}\times (3\times 10^8)^2-6.64\times 10^{-27}\times (3\times 10^8)^2

KE=1.2036\times 10^{-12}\ J

suppose a ball is thrown vertically upward. Eight seconds later it returns to its point of release. What is the initial velocity
valentinak56 [21]
The ball took half of the total time ... 4 seconds ... to reach its highest
point, where it began to fall back down to the point of release.

At its highest point, its velocity changed from upward to downward. 
At that instant, its velocity was zero.

The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s².  That means that an object that's
acted on only by gravity gains 9.8 m/s of downward speed every second. 

-- If the object is falling downward, it moves 9.8 m/s faster every second.

-- If the object is tossed upward, it moves 9.8 m/s slower every second.

The ball took 4 seconds to lose all of its upward speed.  So it must have
been thrown upward at  (4 x 9.8 m/s)  =  39.2 m/s .

(That's about  87.7 mph straight up.  Somebody had an amazing pitching arm.)

5. Find the mass of a car that is traveling at a velocity of 35 m/s West.
sattari [20]

Answer:

m = 9795.9 kg

Explanation:

v = 35 m/s

KE = 6,000,000 J

Plug those values into the following equation:

KE = \frac{1}{2} mv^{2}

6,000,000 J = (1/2)(35^2)m

---> m = 9795.9 kg

The heat capacity of nickel is 0.444 J/(g · °C). Calculate the amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of 18 g of nickel
azamat

The final speed of the nickel at the given quantity of heat is determined as 202.1  m/s.

<h3>Final speed of the nickel</h3>

Apply the principle of conservation of energy.

Q = mcΔθ

Q = (18)(0.444)(66 - 20)

Q = 367.63 J

Q = K.E = ¹/₂mv²

2K.E = mv²

v = √(2K.E/m)

where;

  • v is the final speed

v = √(2 x 367.63)/(0.018))

v = 202.1 m/s
