A matchstick has a lot of chemical energy stored in it. When the match is struck, it burns and the chemical energy in it produces heat energy and light energy.

A proton in a high-energy accelerator is given a kinetic energy of 50.0 GeV. Determine (a) the momentum and (b) the speed of the
koban [17]

(a) The momentum of the proton is determined as 5.17 x 10⁻¹⁸ kgm/s.

(b) The speed of the proton is determined as  3.1 x 10⁹ m/s.

<h3>Momentum of the proton</h3>

The momentum of the proton is calculated as follows;

K.E = ¹/₂mv²

where;

  • m is mass of proton = 1.67 x 10⁻²⁷ kg
  • v is speed of the proton = ?
<h3>Speed of the proton</h3>

v² = 2K.E/m

v² = (2 x 50 x 10⁹ x 1.602 x 10⁻¹⁹ J)/(1.67 x 10⁻²⁷)

v² = 9.6 x 10¹⁸

v = 3.1 x 10⁹ m/s

<h3>Momentum of the proton</h3>

P = mv = (1.67 x10⁻²⁷ x 3.1 x 10⁹) = 5.17 x 10⁻¹⁸ kgm/s

What are northern lights? a lights on mars b lights on the sun c lights on venus
laiz [17]

The northern lights are shafts or curtains of colorful light that occasionally appear in the night sky. They are one of the numerous astronomical phenomena known as polar lights (aurora Polaris).This phenomenon may be observed in mars.

Earth's magnetic field directs electrons and protons from the sun to the poles, where they excite atmospheric gas molecules and cause them to glow, resulting in the aurora borealis and aurora australis, two nocturnal light displays. You might refer to it as the aurora Universalis on Mars. This is because Mars does not direct the energetic particles from the sun to its poles since it lacks an internal magnetic field. Today, researchers utilizing the MAVEN (Mars Atmosphere and Volatile Evolution) spacecraft find evidence for an aurora that may potentially cover the whole nightside of the planet. Venus lacks a magnetic field, thus it would not experience the same kind of nighttime aurora that we do.

Elden [556K]

To accelerate a 34.01 kg-car at 0.55 m/s², a force of 19 N will be required, according to Newton's Second Law of Motion.

<h3>What does Newton's Second Law of Motion state?</h3>

Newton's Second Law of Motion states that acceleration (a) happens when a force (F) acts on a mass (m).

We want a car of mass 34.01 kg to have an acceleration of 0.55 m/s². We can calculate the required force using Newton's Second Law of Motion.

F = m × a = 34.01 kg × 0.55 m/s² = 19 N

To accelerate a 34.01 kg-car at 0.55 m/s², a force of 19 N will be required, according to Newton's Second Law of Motion.

chubhunter [2.5K]
You have to cross multiply. So set up the equation like 1.6/x = 1/65 then multiply x by 1 and 1.6 by 65. The answer is 104 km/h.
