Two particles with masses m and 3m are moving toward each other along the x axis with the same initial speeds Vi. Particle m is

traveling to the left, and the particle 3m is traveling to the right. They undergo an elastic glancing collision such that particles m is moving in the negative y direction after the collision at a right angle from its initial direction.
(a) Find the final speeds of the two particles in terms of Vi.

(b) What is the angle theta at which the particle 3m is scattered?

Answer:

v1 = \sqrt{(2)}Vi

v2 = \sqrt{(2/3)}Vi

ANGLE is 35.3 degree celcius

Explanation:

Given data:

mass m and 3m

initial speed Vi

particle with mass m is moving toward left while particle with mass 3m is moving toward right

By using conservation of momentum :

mVi + 3m(-Vi) = mv1 +3mv2

-2mVi = m(v1 + 3v2)

-2Vi = v1 + 3v2

conservation of energy :

m(Vi^2) + 3m(-Vi^2) = mv1^2 + 3mv2^2

4mVi^2 = m(v1^2+3v2^2)

4Vi^2 = v1^2+3v2^2

After collision, particle with mass m moves at right angles, thus by considering conservation of momentum in x & y direction,

x direction : -2mVi = 3m.v2i

-2Vi = 3v2i

y direction : 0 = m(v1)j+3m(v2)j

-v1j = 3v2j

subsitute these value in energy conservation

v1 = \sqrt{(2)}Vi

v2 = \sqrt{(2/3)}Vi

angle = tan^{-1}(\frac{\sqrt{(2)}}{2}) =35.3 degree from x-axis

(Equation 17.6) Write the equation for the path-length difference at a bright fringe (constructive interference). Define all var
Andrews [41]

Answer:

  d sin tea = m λ

Explanation:

When we have a two-slit system, the optical path difference determines whether the intensity reaching an observation screen is maximum or zero.

To find this difference in optical path, we assume that the screen is much farther than the gap is, we draw a perpendicular from ray 1 to the second ray

       OP = d sin θ

now to have constructive interference and see a bright line this leg must be an integer number of wavelengths, ose

            d sin tea = m λ

where

d             is the distance between the two slits

θ     complexion the angle sea the point hold it between the two slits

λ    the wavelength of the coherent light used

m   an integer, which counts the number of lines of interference

Units in the SI system

d, lam in meters

θ degrees

m an integer

A charge of 25 nC is uniformly distributed along a straight rod of length 3.0 m that is bent into a circular arc with a radius o
Greeley [361]

Answer:

E = 31.329 N/C.

Explanation:

The differential electric field dE at the center of curvature of the arc is

dE = k\dfrac{dQ}{r^2}cos(\theta ) <em>(we have a cosine because vertical components cancel, leaving only horizontal cosine components of E. )</em>

where r is the radius of curvature.

Now

dQ = \lambda rd\theta,

where \lambda is the charge per unit length, and it has the value

\lambda = \dfrac{25*10^{-9}C}{3.0m} = 8.3*10^{-9}C/m.

Thus, the electric field at the center of the curvature of the arc is:

E = \int_{\theta_1}^{\theta_2} k\dfrac{\lambda rd\theta  }{r^2} cos(\theta)

E = \dfrac{\lambda k}{r} \int_{\theta_1}^{\theta_2}cos(\theta) d\theta.

Now, we find \theta_1 and \theta_2. To do this we ask ourselves what fraction is the arc length  3.0 of the circumference of the circle:

fraction = \dfrac{3.0m}{2\pi (2.3m)}  = 0.2076

and this is  

0.2076*2\pi =1.304 radians.

Therefore,

E = \dfrac{\lambda k}{r} \int_{\theta_1}^{\theta_2} cos(\theta)d\theta= \dfrac{\lambda k}{r} \int_{0}^{1.304}cos(\theta) d\theta.

evaluating the integral, and putting in the numerical values  we get:

E = \dfrac{8.3*10^{-9} *9*10^9}{2.3} *(sin(1.304)-sin(0))\\

\boxed{ E = 31.329N/C.}

shutvik [7]

Answer:

Sam will do 1152 J of work to stop the boat

Explanation:

Work: This is defined as the product of force and distance, the S.I unit of work is Joules. At any point in science, during calculation Energy and worked can be interchange because they have the same unit.

E = W = 1/2mv²................ Equation 1

Where E = energy, W = work, m = mass, v = velocity.

Given: m = 900 kg, v = 1.6 m/s

Substituting these values into equation 1

W = 1/2(900)(1.6)²

W = 450×2.56

W = 1152 J.

Therefore Sam will do 1152 J of work to stop the boat
