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

ExtremeBDS [4]
Hey there,

Your question states: <span>Debbie places two shopping carts in a cart corral. She pushes the first cart, which then pushes a second cart. What force is being exerted? 

based by looking at this statement above about Debbie, I understand that she (pushed) Cart (A) first. And then, she exerted (Cart B) next. From the option's that are listed above, I only see two. But from my own words, not from the only (two) options above, I see that (Debbie first exerts the second cart on to the first cart). This reason would be because the first cart is already in the corral. So then she would put the second one in there, this would mean that the second one would push the other one in there. Which means that the velocity would also be in half.

I hope you grabbed my answer in there.

Vector A⃗ points in the positive y direction and has a magnitude of 12 m. Vector B⃗ has a magnitude of 33 m and points in the ne
gavmur [86]

vector A has magnitude 12 m and direction +y

so we can say

\vec A = 12 \hat j

vector B has magnitude 33 m and direction - x

\vec B = -33 \hat i

Now the resultant of vector A and B is given as

\vec A + \vec B = 12 \hat j - 33 \hat i

now for direction of the two vectors resultant will be given as

\theta = tan^{-1}\frac{12}{-33}

\theta = 160 degree

so it is inclined at 160 degree counterclockwise from + x axis

magnitude of A and B will be

R = \sqrt{A^2 + B^2}

R = \sqrt{12^2 + 33^2} = 35.11 m

so magnitude will be 35.11 m

A 30 ohm resistor and a 20 ohm resistor are
Reptile [31]

The current that would pass through the 30 ohms resistor is 2 A.

<h3>What is electric current?</h3>

Electric current is the rate of flow of electric charge round a conductor.

To calculate the electric current that would pass through the 30 ohms resistor, we use the formula below

Formula:

  • I = V/Rt........... Equation 1

Where:

  • I = Electric current passing through the 30 ohms resistor
  • V = Voltage
  • Rt = Total or effective resistance of the resistors.

From the question,

Given:

  • V = 100 volts
  • Rt = (30+20) ohms (since both resistors are connected in series)
  • Rt = 50 ohms

Substitute these values into equation 1

  • I = 100/50
  • I = 2 A

Hence, The current that would pass through the 30 ohms resistor is 2 A.

7. Which law describes when a person lands on a
marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

Newton's Third Law

Explanation:

Newton's third law

Newton's third law: “for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.” This is where you get the bounce. When you push down on the trampoline (or fall downward onto the trampoline bed), Newton's third law says that an equal and opposite reaction pushes back.
