Two particles each have the same mass but particle #1 has four times the charge of particle #2. Particle #1 is accelerated from

marin [14]

Answer:

v_2 = 2*v

Explanation:

Given:

- Mass of both charges = m

- Charge 1 = Q_1

- Speed of particle 1 = v

- Charge 2 = 4*Q_1

- Potential difference p.d = 10 V

Find:

What speed does particle #2 attain?

Solution:

- The force on a charged particle in an electric field is given by:

F = Q*V / r

Where, r is the distance from one end to another.

- The Net force acting on a charge accelerates it according to the Newton's second equation of motion:

F_net = m*a

- Equate the two expressions:

a = Q*V / m*r

- The speed of the particle in an electric field is given by third kinetic equation of motion.

v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2*a*r

Where, v_f is the final velocity,

v_i is the initial velocity = 0

v_f^2 - 0 = 2*a*r

Substitute the expression for acceleration in equation of motion:

v_f^2 = 2*(Q*V / m*r)*r

v_f^2 = 2*Q*V / m

v_f = sqrt (2*Q*V / m)

- The velocity of first particle is v:

v = sqrt (20*Q / m)

- The velocity of second particle Q = 4Q

v_2 = sqrt (20*4*Q / m)

v_2 = 2*sqrt (20*Q / m)

v_2 = 2*v

Potassium is a crucial element for the healthy operation of the human

Degger [83]

Answer:

The mass of the Potassium-40 is $m_{40}} = 2.88*10^{-6} kg$

The Dose per year in Sieverts is $Dose_s = 26.4 *10^{-10}$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The isotopes of potassium in the body are Potassium-39, Potassium-40, and Potassium- 41

Their abundance is 93.26%, 0.012% and 6.728%

The mass of potassium contained in human body is $m = 3.0 g = \frac{3}{1000} = 0.0003 \ kg$ per kg of the body

The mass of the first body is $m_1 = 80 \ kg$

Now the mass of potassium in this body is mathematically evaluated as

$m_p = m * m_1$

substituting value

$m_p = 80 * 0.0003$

$m_p =0.024 kg$

The amount of Potassium-40 present is mathematically evaluated as

$m_{40}} =$ 0.012% * 0.024

$m_{40}} = \frac{0.012}{100} * 0.024$

$m_{40}} = 2.88*10^{-6} kg$

The dose of energy absorbed per year is mathematically represented as

$Dose = \frac{E}{m_1}$

Where E is the energy absorbed which is given as $E = 1.10 MeV = 1.10 * 10^6 * 1.602*10^{-19}$

Substituting value

$Dose = \frac{ 1.10 * 10^6 * 1.602*10^{-19}}{80}$

$Dose = 22*10^{-10} J/kg$

The Dose in Sieverts is evaluated as

$Dose_s = REB * Dose$

$Dose_s = 1.2 * 22*10^{-10}$

$Dose_s = 26.4 *10^{-10}$
