Which of the following correctly identifies the initial direction of the force on the moving positively charged particle (i.e.,
current in the wire is directed to the left as indicated by the arrow). A. Down B. Up C. Into the page D. No force
1 answer:
Answer:
Explanation:
Given
Current is flowing towards right side
Considering right side i.e. +x to be positive and direction outside the paper be +k
suppose charge is below the wire and is moving towards right
magnetic field below the wire is outside the Paper using right hand thumb rule
i.e. Force acts in Downward direction
i charge is moving towards left i.e.
towards upward direction

Answer:
<em>0.85c </em>
Explanation:
Rest mass of Kaon = 494 MeV/c²
Rest mass of proton = 938 MeV/c²
The rest energy is gotten by multiplying the rest mass by the square of the speed of light c²
for the kaon, rest energy = 494c² MeV
for the proton, rest energy = 938c² MeV
Recall that the rest energy, and the total energy are related by..
= γ
which can be written in this case as
= γ
...... equ 1
where = total energy of the kaon, and
= rest energy of the kaon
γ = relativistic factor =
where
But, it is stated that the total energy of the kaon is equal to the rest mass of the proton or its equivalent rest energy, therefore...
=
......equ 2
where is the total energy of the kaon, and
is the rest energy of the proton.
From =
= 938c²
equ 1 becomes
938c² = γ494c²
γ = 938c²/494c² = 1.89
γ = = 1.89
1.89 = 1
squaring both sides, we get
3.57( 1 - ) = 1
3.57 - 3.57 = 1
2.57 = 3.57
= 2.57/3.57 = 0.72
= 0.85
but,
v/c = 0.85
v = <em>0.85c </em>
