Physicists and engineers from around the world have come together to build the largest accelerator in the world, the Large Hadro

n Collider (LHC) at the CERN Laboratory in Geneva, Switzerland. The machine accelerates protons to high kinetic energies in an underground ring 27 km in circumference.
a. What speed v of proton in the LHC if the proton's kinetic energy is 6.7 TeV? (Because v is very close to c, write v=(1−Δ)c and give your answer in terms of Δ).
b. Find the relativistic mass, mrel, of the accelerated protons in terms of their rest mass.

Solution :

Energy of photon, E = 6.7 eV

                              E = $6.7 \times 1.602 \times 10^{-7}$ joule

Kinetic energy, $K.E. =\frac{1}{2} mv^2 = 1.602 \times 6.7 \times 10^{-7}$

$v^2=\frac{2 \times 1.602 \times 6.7 \times 10^{-7}}{1.6726 \times 10^{-27}}$

   $=12.834 \times 10^{-20}$

Kinetic energy at high speeds

$(r-1)\times mc^2 = 6.7 \ eV$

$(r-1)=\frac{6.7 \times 1.602 \times 10^{-7}}{1.6726 \times 10^{-27} \times 9 \times 10^{16}}$

r - 1 = 7130

r = 7130 + 1

r  = 7131

$\frac{1}{\sqrt{1-\frac{v^2}{C^2}}}=7131$

$1-\frac{v^2}{C^2} = \left(\frac{1}{7131}\right)^2$

$v^2=C^2\left[1-\left(\frac{1}{7131}\right)^2\right]$

$v=0.99999999017C$

Δ = 1 - 0.99999999017

   = 0.00000000933

Relative mass, $m_{rel}=r.m$

                                $=7131 \times 1.6728 \times 10^{-27}$

                               $=1.1927 \times 10^{-23}$ kg

A brick lands 10.1 m from the base of a building. If it was given an initial velocity of 8.6 m/s [61º above the horizontal], how
Montano1993 [528]
<h2>Answer: 10.52m</h2><h2 />

First, we have to establish the <u>reference system</u>. Let's assume that the building is on the negative y-axis and that the brick was thrown at the origin (see figure attached).

According to this, the initial velocity V_{o} has two components, because the brick was thrown at an angle \alpha=61\º:

V_{ox}=V_{o}cos\alpha   (1)

V_{ox}=8.6\frac{m}{s}cos(61\º)=4.169\frac{m}{s}  (2)

V_{oy}=V_{o}sin\alpha   (3)

V_{oy}=8.6\frac{m}{s}sin(61\º)=7.521\frac{m}{s}   (4)

As this is a projectile motion, we have two principal equations related:

<h2>In the x-axis: </h2>

X=V_{ox}.t  (5)

Where:

X=10.1m is the distance where the brick landed

t is the time in seconds

If we already know X and V_{ox}, we have to find the time (we will need it for the following equation):

t= \frac{X}{ V_{ox}}  (6)

t=2.42s  (7)

<h2>In the y-axis: </h2>

-y=V_{oy}.t+\frac{1}{2}g.t^{2}   (8)

Where:

y is the height of the building (<u>in this case it has a negative sign because of the reference system we chose)</u>

g=-9.8\frac{m}{s^{2}} is the acceleration due gravity

Substituting the known values, including the time we found on equation (7) in equation (8), we will find the height of the building:

-y=(7.521\frac{m}{s})(2.42s)+\frac{1}{2}(-9.8\frac{m}{s^{2}}).(2.42s)^{2}   (9)

-y=-10.52m   (10)

Multiplying by -1 each side of the equation:

y=10.52m >>>>This is the height of the building

Isotopes of an element differ in their number of ?
Lera25 [3.4K]

neutrons

Explanation:

Isotopes of an element differ in their number of neutrons.

Isotopy is the existence of two or more atoms of the same element having the same atomic number but different mass numbers due to the differences in the  number of neutrons in their nucleus.

  • Isotopes of an element have the same electronic configuration.
  • They have the same chemical properties but differ in their masses.
  • The mass of an atom is function of the protons and neutrons.

Naoki's bicycle has a mass of 9 kg. If Naoki sits on her bicycle and starts pedaling with a force of 107.2 N, causing an acceler
Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

Explanation:

F = ma

m = F/a

m = 107.2/1.6 = 67 kg

so Naoki's mass must be the total mass - mass of the bike

so her mass is 67 - 9 = 58 kg...B
