Answer:

2.07 pm

Explanation:

The problem given here is the very well known Compton effect which is expressed as

\lambda^{'}-\lambda=\frac{h}{m_e c}(1-cos\theta)

here, \lambda is the initial photon wavelength, \lambda^{'} is the scattered photon wavelength, h is he Planck's constant, m_e is the free electron mass, c is the velocity of light, \theta is the angle of scattering.

Given that, the scattering angle is, \theta=147^{\circ}

Putting the respective values, we get

\lambda^{'}-\lambda=\frac{6.626\times 10^{-34} }{9.11\times 10^{-31}\times 3\times 10^{8} } (1-cos147^\circ ) m\\\lambda^{'}-\lambda=2.42\times 10^{-12} (1-cos147^\circ ) m.\\\lambda^{'}-\lambda=2.42(1-cos147^\circ ) p.m.\\\lambda^{'}-\lambda=4.45 p.m.

Here, the photon's incident wavelength is \lamda=2.78pm

Therefore,

\lambda^{'}=2.78+4.45=7.23 pm

From the conservation of momentum,

\vec{P_\lambda}=\vec{P_{\lambda^{'}}}+\vec{P_e}

where,\vec{P_\lambda} is the initial photon momentum, \vec{P_{\lambda^{'}}} is the final photon momentum and \vec{P_e} is the scattered electron momentum.

Expanding the vector sum, we get

P^2_{e}=P^2_{\lambda}+P^2_{\lambda^{'}}-2P_\lambda P_{\lambda^{'}}cos\theta

Now expressing the momentum in terms of De-Broglie wavelength

P=h/\lambda,

and putting it in the above equation we get,

\lambda_{e}=\frac{\lambda \lambda^{'}}{\sqrt{\lambda^{2}+\lambda^{2}_{'}-2\lambda \lambda^{'} cos\theta}}

Therefore,

\lambda_{e}=\frac{2.78\times 7.23}{\sqrt{2.78^{2}+7.23^{2}-2\times 2.78\times 7.23\times cos147^\circ }} pm\\\lambda_{e}=\frac{20.0994}{9.68} = 2.07 pm

This is the de Broglie wavelength of the electron after scattering.

Tarzan (who has mass 80.0 kg) is running across the jungle floor with speed 7.00 m/s as
Lesechka [4]

<u>We are given:</u>

Mass of Tarzan before swinging = 80 kg

Mass of Tarzan when swinging = 80 + 15 = 95 kg

Velocity of Tarzan = 7 m/s

The height of the rock Tarzan's monkey is sitting on = 3 m

__________________________________________________________

<u>Momentum of Tarzan before swinging:</u>

We know that:

Momentum = Mass*Velocity

Momentum = 80 * 7

Momentum = 560 kg m/s

__________________________________________________________

<u>Speed of Tarzan after grabbing the bananas:</u>

The momentum of Tarzan will remain the same but his mass will increase

So, Since Momentum = New Mass* velocity

560 = 95 * v                           [where v is the velocity of Tarzan]

v = 5.9 m/s

<u>__________________________________________________________</u>

<h3><u>Finding the Initial and Final KE and PE:</u></h3>

<em>Here, KE = Kinetic Energy and PE = Potential Energy</em>

<u>Initial and Final KE:</u>

We know that KE = 1/2*(mv²)

<u>Initial KE:</u>

Initial KE = 1/2*(mv²)          [where v is the velocity after picking the bananas]

Initial KE = 1/2*(95*5.9²)

Initial KE = 1653.5 Joules

<u>Final KE:</u>

Final KE = 1/2*(mv²)            

<em>[where v is the velocity at the maximum point of the swing]</em>

Since Tarzan will be at rest at the maximum point of the swing, v = 0 m/s

Final KE = 1/2*(95*0²)

Final KE = 0 Joules

<u>Initial and Final PE:</u>

We know that:

PE = mgh                

<em>[where g is the acceleration due to gravity and h is the height]</em>

<u>Initial PE:</u>

Since the height of Tarzan from the ground was 0 m at the beginning of the swing, h = 0

Initial PE = 95*10*0

Initial PE = 0 Joules

<u>Final PE:</u>

Let the maximum height of Tarzan be h m

Final PE = 95*10*h

Final PE = 950(h)

__________________________________________________________

<h3><u>Finding the maximum height Tarzan will reach:</u></h3>

<em>Here, KE = Kinetic Energy and PE = Potential Energy</em>

From the law of conservation of momentum, we know that:

Initial KE + Initial PE = Final KE + Final PE

Replacing the variables:

1653.5 + 0 = 0 + 950h

1653.5 = 950h

h = 1653.5/950         [dividing both sides by 950]

h = 1.74 m

Therefore, the maximum height reached by Tarzan is 1.74 m

but since his monkey is sitting 3 m high, he will NOT be able to reach his monkey

Answer:

<em>The new period of oscillation is D) 3.0 T</em>

Explanation:

<u>Simple Pendulum</u>

A simple pendulum is a mechanical arrangement that describes periodic motion. The simple pendulum is made of a small bob of mass 'm' suspended by a thin inextensible string.

The period of a simple pendulum is given by

T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}

Where L is its length and g is the local acceleration of gravity.

If the length of the pendulum was increased to 9 times (L'=9L), the new period of oscillation will be:

T'=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L'}{g}}

T'=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{9L}{g}}

Taking out the square root of 9 (3):

T'=3*2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}

Substituting the original T:

T'=3*T

The new period of oscillation is D) 3.0 T
