An proton-antiproton pair is produced by a 2.20 × 10 3 MeV photon. What is the kinetic energy of the antiproton if the kinetic e

timama [110]

Answer:

K = 80.75 MeV

Explanation:

To calculate the kinetic energy of the antiproton we need to use conservation of energy:

$E_{ph} = E_{p} + E_{ap} = E_{0p} + K_{p} + E_{0ap} + K_{ap} = m_{0p}c^{2} + K_{p} + m_{0ap}c^{2} + K_{ap}$

<em>where $E_{ph}$ : is the photon energy, $E_{0p} and E_{0ap}$ : are the rest energies of the proton and the antiproton, respectively, equals to m₀c², $K_{p} and K_{ap}$ : are the kinetic energies of the proton and the antiproton, respectively, c: speed of light, and m₀: rest mass.</em>

Therefore the kinetic energy of the antiproton is:

$K_{ap} = E_{ph} - m_{0p}c^{2} - K_{p} - m_{0ap}c^{2}$

<u>The proton mass is equal to the antiproton mass, so</u>:

$K_{ap} = E_{ph} - 2m_{0p}c^{2} - K_{p}$

$K_{ap} = 2.20 \cdot 10^{3}MeV - 2(1.67 \cdot 10^{-27}kg)(3\cdot 10^{8} \frac {m}{s})^{2} - 242.85MeV$

$K_{ap} = 2.20 \cdot 10^{3}MeV - 2(1.67 \cdot 10^{-27}kg)(3\cdot 10^{8} \frac {m}{s})^{2}(\frac{1eV}{1.602 \cdot 10^{-19}J})(\frac{1 MeV}{10^{6}eV}) - 242.85MeV$

$K_{ap} = 80.75 MeV$

Hence, the kinetic energy of the antiproton is 80.75 MeV.

Gwar [14]

Newtons 1st law of motion states that the object will continue to move at its present speed and direction until an outside force acts upon it.

So unless the objects inside the car are restrained, they will continue moving at whatever speed the car is traveling at, even if the car is stopped by a crash.

A sinusoidal wave of angular frequency 1,203 rad/s and amplitude 3.1 mm is sent along a cord with linear density 3.9 g/m and ten

kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

18.7842493212 W

Explanation:

T = Tension = 1871 N

$\mu$ = Linear density = 3.9 g/m

y = Amplitude = 3.1 mm

$\omega$ = Angular frequency = 1203 rad/s

Average rate of energy transfer is given by

$P=\dfrac{1}{2}\sqrt{T\mu}\omega^2y^2\\\Rightarrow P=\dfrac{1}{2}\sqrt{1871\times 3.9\times 10^{-3}}\times 1203^2\times (3.1\times 10^{-3})^2\\\Rightarrow P=18.7842493212\ W$

The average rate at which energy is transported by the wave to the opposite end of the cord is 18.7842493212 W

A mass of 250 N is on a piston of 2.0 m^2. What force is needed to lift this piston if the area of the second piston is 0.5 m^2?

prohojiy [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

The pressure at one end of the piston is equal to the pressure on the second piston.

Pressure = Force/Area

F1/A1 = F2/A2

Given

F1 = 250N

A1 = 2.0m²

A2 = 0.5m²

F2 = ?

Substituting the given values in the formula;

250/2 = F2/0.5

cross multiply

250*0.5 = 2F2

125 = 2F2

F2 = 125/2

F2 = 62.5N

Hence the force needed to lift this piston if the area of the second piston is 0.5 m^2 is 62.5N
