9. A 50 kg physics i student trudges from the 1st floor to the 3rd floor, going up a total height of 13 m.

SVETLANKA909090 [29]2 years ago

3 0

Answer:

6370 J

Explanation:

By the law of energy conservation, the work done by the student would be the change in potential enegy from 1st floor to 3rd floor, or a change of 13 m

$W = E_p = mgh$

where m = 50kg is the mass of the student, g = 9.8 m/s2 is the gravitational constant and h = 13 m is the height difference

$W = 50*9.8*13 = 6370 J$

Momentum is usually not exactly conserved in a real world demonstration of momentum conservation. What is a possible reason for

Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

For any collision occurring in an isolated system, momentum is conserved. The total amount of momentum of the collection of objects in the system is the same before the collision as after the collision.

(a) If a proton with a kinetic energy of 6.2 MeV is traveling in a particle accelerator in a circular orbit with a radius of 0.5

Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

The fraction of its energy that it radiates every second is $3.02\times10^{-11}$ .

Explanation:

Suppose Electromagnetic radiation is emitted by accelerating charges. The rate at which energy is emitted from an accelerating charge that has charge q and acceleration a is given by

$\dfrac{dE}{dt}=\dfrac{q^2a^2}{6\pi\epsilon_{0}c^3}$

Given that,

Kinetic energy = 6.2 MeV

Radius = 0.500 m

We need to calculate the acceleration

Using formula of acceleration

$a=\dfrac{v^2}{r}$

Put the value into the formula

$a=\dfrac{\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2}{\dfrac{1}{2}mr}$

Put the value into the formula

$a=\dfrac{6.2\times10^{6}\times1.6\times10^{-19}}{\dfrac{1}{2}\times1.67\times10^{-27}\times0.51}$

$a=2.32\times10^{15}\ m/s^2$

We need to calculate the rate at which it emits energy because of its acceleration is

$\dfrac{dE}{dt}=\dfrac{q^2a^2}{6\pi\epsilon_{0}c^3}$

Put the value into the formula

$\dfrac{dE}{dt}=\dfrac{(1.6\times10^{-19})^2\times(2.3\times10^{15})^2}{6\pi\times8.85\times10^{-12}\times(3\times10^{8})^3}$

$\dfrac{dE}{dt}=3.00\times10^{-23}\ J/s$

The energy in ev/s

$\dfrac{dE}{dt}=\dfrac{3.00\times10^{-23}}{1.6\times10^{-19}}\ J/s$

$\dfrac{dE}{dt}=1.875\times10^{-4}\ ev/s$

We need to calculate the fraction of its energy that it radiates every second

$\dfrac{\dfrac{dE}{dt}}{E}=\dfrac{1.875\times10^{-4}}{6.2\times10^{6}}$

$\dfrac{\dfrac{dE}{dt}}{E}=3.02\times10^{-11}$

Hence, The fraction of its energy that it radiates every second is $3.02\times10^{-11}$ .

What is the kinetic energy of a 1.00g hailstone falling at 8.50m/s

bearhunter [10]

Answer:

36.125 J

Explanation:

The formula for kinetic energy is KE = .5(m)(v²).

Using the given information, mass = 1 g and v = 8.50. Plug that information into the equation. KE = .5(1)(8.50²) = 36.125 J.

How is pressure and density related?

enyata [817]

Answer:

Density is directly proportional to pressure

Explanation:

As pressure increases (with constant temperature), density also increases.

Density is inversely proportional to temperature.
