A proton is moving at 425 m/s. (a) How much work must be done on it to stop it? (A proton has a mass of 1.67×10−27 kg.) (b) Assu

Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

a)1.51*10^-22joules b) 1.89*10^-7m

Explanation:

Work done to stop the proton = the kinetic energy of the proton = 1/2 mv^2 = 1/2* 1.67*10^-27* 425*425 = 1.51* 10 ^ -22 joules

b) net force acting to stop the proton = 8.01*10^-16

Work done needed to stop the proton = net force acting opposite the motion * distance

Distance covered = need work done/ net force

Distance = 1.51*10^-22/8.01*10^-16= 1.89*10^-7m

Two masses —m1 and m2— are connected by light cables to the perimeters of two cylinders of radii r1 and r2 respectively, as show

Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

Part a)

Mass of m2 is given as

$m_2 = \frac{20}{3} kg$

Part b)

Angular acceleration is given as

$\alpha = 1.96 rad/s^2$

Part c)

Tension in the rope is given as

$T = 176.6 N$

Explanation:

Part a)

When m1 and m2 both connected to the cylinder then the system is at rest

so we can use torque balance here

$m_1g r_1 = m_2 g r_2$

$20 g(0.5) = m_2 g(1.5)$

$10 = 1.5 m_2$

$m_2 = \frac{20}{3} kg$

Part b)

When block m_2 is removed then system becomes unstable

so force equation of mass m1

$m_1g - T = m_1 a$

also we have

$T r_1 = I\alpha$

now we have

$m_1g = \frac{I a}{r_1^2} + m_1 a$

$a = \frac{m_1g}{\frac{I}{r_1^2} + m_1}$

$a = \frac{20 (9.81)}{\frac{45}{0.5^2} + 20}$

$a = 0.981 m/s^2$

so angular acceleration is given as

$\alpha = \frac{a}{r_1}$

$\alpha = \frac{0.981}{0.5}$

$\alpha = 1.96 rad/s^2$

Part c)

Tension in the rope is given as

$T = \frac{I\alpha}{r_1}$

$T = \frac{45 (1.96)}{0.5}$

$T = 176.6 N$

Us your understanding of asexual reproduction to explain why is it important that organisms reproduce in a variety of ways.

valentina_108 [34]

The genetic material is identical in asexual reproduction- in order for organisms to be strong they need variety so if a disease comes, some of the species may be able to fight it off because of their varied genetics
