In an "atom smasher," two particles collide head on at relativistic speeds. If the velocity of the first particle is 0.741c to t
USPshnik [31]

Answer:

W_x = 0.9156\ c

Explanation:

given,

velocity of particle 1 = 0.741 c to left

velocity of second particle = 0.543 c to right

relative velocity between the particle = ?

for the relative velocity calculation we have formula

W_x = \dfrac{|u_x - v_x|}{1-\dfrac{u_xv_x}{c^2}}

u_x = 0.543 c

v_x = - 0.741 c

W_x = \dfrac{0.543 c - (-0.741 c)}{1-\dfrac{(0.543 c)(-0.741 c)}{c^2}}

W_x = \dfrac{0.543 c +0.741 c)}{1+\dfrac{(0.543)(0.741)c^2}{c^2}}

W_x = \dfrac{1.284c}{1+0.402363}

W_x = 0.9156\ c

Relative velocity of the particle is W_x = 0.9156\ c

(b) How far from the surface will a particle go if it leaves the asteroid's surface with a radial speed of 1510 m/s? (c) With wh
makvit [3.9K]

Answers:

(a) 2509.98 m/s

(b) 397042.215 m

(c) 1917.76 m/s

Explanation:

The question is incomplete, please remember to write the whole question :) However, part (a) is written below:

(a) What is the escape speed on a spherical asteroid whose radius is 700 km  and whose gravitational acceleration at the surface is a_{g}=4.5 m/s^{2}

Knowing this, let's begin:

a) In this part we need to find the escape speed V_{e} on the asteroid:

V_{e}=\sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R}} (1)

Where:

G is the universal gravitational constant

M is the mass of the asteroid

R=700 km=700(10)^{3} m is the radius of the asteroid

On the other hand we know the gravitational acceleration is a_{g}=4.5 m/s^{2}, which is given by:

a_{g}=\frac{GM}{R^{2}} (2)

Isolating GM:

GM=a_{g}R^{2} (3)

Substituting (3) in (1):

V_{e}=\sqrt{\frac{2a_{g}R^{2}}{R}}=\sqrt{2a_{g}R} (4)

V_{e}=\sqrt{2(4.5 m/s^{2})(700(10)^{3} m)} (5)

V_{e}=2509.98 m/s (6) This is the escape velocity

b) In this part we will use the Conservation of mechanical energy principle:

E_{o}=E_{f} (7)

Being:

E_{o}=K_{o}+U_{o}=\frac{1}{2}m V^{2} - \frac{GMm}{R} (8)

E_{f}=K_{f}+U_{f}=0 - \frac{GMm}{R+h} (9)

Where:

E_{o} is the initial mechanical energy

E_{f} is the final mechanical energy

K_{o} is the initial kinetic energy

K_{f}=0 is the final kinetic energy

U_{o} is the initial gravitational potential energy

U_{f} is the final gravitational potential energy

m is the mass of the object

V=1510 m/s is the radial speed of the object

h is the distance above the surface of the object

Then:

\frac{1}{2}m V^{2} - \frac{GMm}{R}=- \frac{GMm}{R+h} (10)

Isolating h:

h=\frac{2 a_{g} R^{2}}{2a_{g}R-V^{2}}-R (11)

h=\frac{2 (4.5 m/s^{2}) (700(10)^{3} m)^{2}}{2(4.5 m/s^{2})(700(10)^{3} m)-(1510 m/s)^{2}}-700(10)^{3} m (11)

h=397042.215 m (12) This is the distance above the asteroid's surface

c) We will use the Conservation of mechanical energy principle again, but now the condition is that the object is dropped at a distance h=981.8 km=981.8(10)^{3} m. This means that at the begining the object only has gravitational potential energy and then it has kinetic energy and gravitational potential energy:

\frac{-GMm}{R+h}=\frac{-GMm}{R}+\frac{1}{2}mV^{2} (13)

Isolating V:

V=\sqrt{2a_{g} R(1-\frac{R}{R+h})} (14)

V=\sqrt{2(4.5 m/s^{2}) (700(10)^{3} m)(1-\frac{700(10)^{3} m}{700(10)^{3} m+981.8(10)^{3} m})} (15)

Finally:

V=1917.76 m/s

What kinds of space and matter can light travel through
dem82 [27]

Answer:

Light travels as a wave. But unlike sound waves or water waves, it does not need any matter or material to carry its energy along. This means that light can travel through a vacuum—a completely airless space. (Sound, on the other hand, must travel through a solid, a liquid, or a gas.)

Nerve cells transmit electric signals through their long tubular axons. These signals propagate due to a sudden rush of Na+ ions
iren [92.7K]

Answer:

I = \frac{9.12x10^{-8} C}{0.007 s}= 1.30285 x10^{-5} \frac{C}{s}=1.30285 x10^{-5} A = 13.02 \mu A

Explanation:

For this case we have the following info given:

Number of Na+ ions 5.7 x10^{11} ions

Each ion have a charge of +e and the crage of the electron is 1.6 x10^{-19}C

The time is given t = 7 ms if we convert this into seconds we got:

t = 7ms * \frac{1s}{1000 ms}= 0.007s

Now we can use the following formula given from the current passing thourhg a meter of nerve axon given by:

Q = Ne

Where N represent the number of ions, e the charge of the electron and Q the total charge

If we replace on this case we have this:

Q= 5.7x10^{11} * (1.6 x10^{-19}C) = 9.12x10^{-8} C

And from the general definition of current we know that:

I =\frac{Q}{t}

And since we know the total charge Q and the time we can replace:

I = \frac{9.12x10^{-8} C}{0.007 s}= 1.30285 x10^{-5} \frac{C}{s}=1.30285 x10^{-5} A = 13.02 \mu A

The current during the inflow charge in the meter axon for this case is 13.02 \mu A
