Answer:

Part a)

v_f = 2.569 \times 10^7 m/s

Part b)

\Delta K = 7.014 \times 10^{-14} J

Explanation:

Part a)

As we know that proton is accelerated uniformly so we can use kinematics here to find the final speed

so we know that

v_i = 2.4 \times 10^7 m/s

d = 3 cm

a = 1.4 \times 10^{15} m/s^2

so we will have

v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 a d

v_f^2 - (2.4 \times 10^7)^2 = 2(1.4 \times 10^{15})(0.03)

v_f^2 = 6.6 \times 10^{14}

v_f = 2.569 \times 10^7 m/s

Part b)

Now increase in kinetic energy is given as

\Delta K = \frac{1}{2}m(v_f^2 - v_i^2)

\Delta K = \frac{1}{2}(1.67 \times 10^{-27})[(2.569 \times 10^7)^2 - (2.4 \times 10^7)^2]

\Delta K = 7.014 \times 10^{-14} J

2) Two railway tracks are parallel to west east direction. Along one track, train A moves with a speed of 45 m/s from
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

Relative\ Velocity = 105m/s

Explanation:

Given

V_A = 45m/s

V_B = 60m/s

Required

Determine the speed of B w.r.t A

The question implies that, we determine the relative velocity of B w.r.t A

Because both trains are moving towards one another, the required velocity is a sum\ of\ velocities\ of both trains:

This is shown below:

Relative\ Velocity = V_A + V_B

Relative\ Velocity = 45m/s + 60m/s

Relative\ Velocity = 105m/s

Your average speed on the first half of a car trip is 69.0 km/h. How fast do you have to drive on the second half of the trip to
vova2212 [387]

Answer:

13 km/h

Explanation:

Average speed = distance/time

Let the total distance and total time taken for the whole trip be d km and t hours respectively

Average speed for the whole trip = 82 km/h

d = 82t

The distance covered in the first half = d1/2

Time taken = t/2

Average speed = 69 km/h

69 = d1/2 ÷ t/2

d1 = 69t

The distance covered in the second half = d2/2

Time taken = t/2

Let the average sly for the see half be A

A = d2/2 ÷ t/2

d2 = At

d = d1 + d2

82t = 69t + At

At = 82t - 69t

At = 13t

A = 13t/t = 13 km/h

The thermal transfer of energy by electromagnetic waves through the vacuum of space is called
Olenka [21]

Answer: Radiation

Explanation:

There are three ways in which the thermal transfer occurs:

   1. By Conduction, when the transmission is by the <u>direct contact</u>.

  2. By Convection, heat transfer <u>in fluids </u>(like water or the air, for example).  

   3. By Radiation, by the <u>electromagnetic waves</u> (they can travel through any medium and in <u>vacumm</u>)

So, in the outter space is vacuum, this means the energy cannot be transmitted by convection, nor conduction. It must be transmitted by electromagnetic waves that are able to travel with or without a medium, and this is called radiation.

What is playing catch? ( in terms of the force of the air interacting with ball )
Ugo [173]
Playing catch involves the ball moving in one direction in the air when you exert force. When the ball is in air, there is a gravitational force and a little it of backward air resistance until the other person catches it.

A private aviation helicopter's main rotor blades rotate at approximately
Arisa [49]

Answer: 7.5 rev/s

Explanation:

We are given the angular velocity \omega a helicopter's main rotor blades:

\omega=450 rpm=450 \frac{rev}{min}

However, we are asked to express this \omega in the International Systrm (SI) units. In this sense, the SI unit for time is second (s):

\omega=450 \frac{rev}{min} \frac{1 min}{60 s}

\omega=7.5 \frac{rev}{s}
