Answer:

Explanation:

  • given S = distance from the first = 3.20cm = 0.032m, t = 1.30×10−8 s
  • q = 1.6 x 10_19C
  • using S = at^2/2
  • acceleration = 0.032 X 2 /(1.30×10−8)^2

a = 3.79 x 10^14m/s^2

  • From F = ma
  • F = qE
  • ma = qE

E = ma /q = 9.11 x 10^-31 x 3.79 x 10^14 / 1.6 x 10^-19

E = magnitude of this electric field. = 2156.3N/C

b) Find the speed of the electron when it strikes the second plate ; V^2 = 2as

= 2 X 3.79 x 10^14 X 0.032

= 4.92 X 10^6m/s

A subatomic particle X spontaneously decays into two particles, A and B, each of rest energy 1.40 × 10^2 MeV. The particles fly
adoni [48]

Answer:

E = 389 MeV

Explanation:

The total energy of particle A, will be equal to the sum of rest mass energy and relative energy of particle A. Therefore,

Total Energy of A = E = Rest Mass Energy + Relative Energy

Using Einstein's Equation: E = mc²

E = m₀c² + mc²

From Einstein's Special Theory of Relativity, we know that:

m = m₀/[√(1-v²/c²)]

Therefore,

E = m₀c² + m₀c²/[√(1-v²/c²)]

E = m₀c²[1 + 1/√(1-v²/c²)]

where,

m₀c² = rest mass energy = 140 MeV

v = relative speed = 0.827 c

Therefore,

E = (140 MeV)[1 + 1/√(1 - (0.827c)²/c²)]

E = (140 MeV)(2.78)

<u>E = 389 MeV</u>

A submarine sends a signal and receives an echo after 5 seconds. Calculate the speed of sound if distance of object from submari
Reil [10]

speed = distance \div time
Since the sound travels from the submarine to the object AND back, it actually travelled 3625x2=7250m.

7250 \div 5 = 1450
Speed of sound: 1450m/s

Two boys are at the top of a waterslide at Seven Peaks Water Park. One boy (boy A) slips off the top of the tower and falls unob
Illusion [34]

Answer: boy B, same

Explanation:

Given

One boy trips off the waterslide while the other starts sliding down

As there is no horizontal velocity, both boys have to travel the same vertical distance.

Their starting vertical velocity is zero and they need to travel the same vertical distance. Therefore, both boys splash water with the same velocity.

The time taken by boy B is more than boy A as boy B will travel some horizontal distance due to slide which will increase its time to reach the bottom.
