An X-Ray tube is an evacuated glass tube, where the electrons are produced at one end and accelerated by a strong electric field

towards the other end. If they move fast enough when they strike the positive electrode at the other end, they will give up their energy as X-Rays
(a) Through what potential difference should electrons be accelerated so that their speed is 1% of the speed of light?
(b) What potential difference would be needed to give the protons same kinetic energy as electrons?
(c) What speed would this potential difference give to the protons, both in m/s and as a % of the speed of light.

Answer:

a) ΔV = 25.59 V, b)  ΔV = 25.59 V,  c)  v = 7 10⁴ m / s,  v/c= 2.33 10⁻⁴ ,

v/c% = 2.33 10⁻²

Explanation:

a) The speed they ask for electrons is much lower than the speed of light, so we don't need relativistic corrections, let's use the concepts of energy

starting point. Where the electrons come out

          Em₀ = U = e DV

final point. Where they hit the target

          Em_f = K = ½ m v2

energy is conserved

          Em₀ = Em_f

         e ΔV = ½ m v²

         ΔV = \frac{1}{2} mv²/e     (1)

If the speed of light is c and this is 100% then 1% is

         v = 1% c = c / 100

         v = 3 10⁸/100 = 3 10⁶6 m/ s

let's calculate

         ΔV = \frac{1}{2}  \frac{9.1 \ 10^{-31} (3 10^6 )^2 }{ 1.6 10^{-19} }

         ΔV = 25.59 V

b) Ask for the potential difference for protons with the same kinetic energy as electrons

             K_e = K_p

              K_p = ½ m v_e²

              K_p = \frac{1}{2}  9.1 10⁻³¹ (3 10⁶)²

              K_p = 40.95 10⁻¹⁹ J

we substitute in equation 1

              ΔV = Kp / M

              ΔV = 40.95 10⁻¹⁹ / 1.6 10⁻¹⁹

              ΔV = 25.59 V

notice that these protons go much slower than electrons because their mass is greater

c) The speed of the protons is

             e ΔV = ½ M v²

             v² = 2 e ΔV / M

             v² = \frac{2 \ 1.6 \ 10^{-19} \ 25.59 }{1.67 \ 10^{-27} }

              v² = 49,035 10⁸

               v = 7 10⁴ m / s

Relation

        v/c = \frac{7 \ 10^4 }{ 3 \ 10^8}

        v/c= 2.33 10⁻⁴

What do you mean by reflection of sound​
Bogdan [553]

Answer:

Reflection of sound waves also leads to echoes. Echoes are different than reverberations. Echoes occur when a reflected sound wave reaches the ear more than 0.1 seconds after the original sound wave was heard. ... Reflection of sound waves off of curved surfaces leads to a more interesting phenomenon.

what is the mass of vertical column of air that exerts pressure of 1 atm over a10m by 10m square surface
Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

m=1.01\times 10^6\ kg

Explanation:

Given that,

Pressure, P = 1 atm = 101325 Pa

Area of the square surface, A = 10² = 100 m²

We need to find the mass of vertical column of air. We know that, pressure is equal to the force acting per unit area. So,

P=\dfrac{mg}{A}\\\\m=\dfrac{PA}{g}\\\\m=\dfrac{101325\times 10^2}{10}\\\\m=1.01\times 10^6\ kg

So, the required mass of the vertical column of air is 1.01\times 10^6\ kg.

un motor electric efectueaza un lucru mecanic de 864 j in 0.5 min.tensiunea la bornele sale este de 12v si este parcurs de un cu
GrogVix [38]

Answer:

96%

Explanation:

To find the values of the motor efficiency you use the following formula:

E=\frac{P_o}{P_i}100

P_o: output power = 864J/0.5min=864J/30s=28.8W

P_i: input power = I*V = (3A)(12V) = 36W

By replacing this values you obtain:

E=\frac{28.8W}{30W}*100=96\%

hence, the motor efficiency is about 96%

traslation:

Pentru a găsi valorile eficienței motorului, utilizați următoarea formulă:

P_o: putere de ieșire = 864J / 0.5min = 864J / 30s = 28.8W

P_i: putere de intrare = I * V = (3A) (12V) = 36W

Înlocuind aceste valori obțineți:

prin urmare, eficiența motorului este de aproximativ 96%
