a. 1.5m
b. 3.0 m
c. 4.5 m

Answer:

d. 6.0 m

Explanation:

Given;

initial velocity of the car, u = 7.0 m/s

distance traveled by the car, d = 1.5 m

Assuming the car to be decelerating at a constant rate when the brakes were applied;

v² = u² + 2(-a)s

v² = u² - 2as

where;

v is the final velocity of the car when it stops

0 = u² - 2as

2as = u²

a = u² / 2s

a = (7)² / (2 x 1.5)

a = 16.333 m/s

When the velocity is 14 m/s

v² = u² - 2as

0 = u² - 2as

2as = u²

s = u² / 2a

s = (14)² / (2 x 16.333)

s = 6.0 m

Therefore, If the car had been moving at 14 m/s, it would have traveled 6.0 m before stopping.

The correct option is d

Over [174]

Answer:

Part a)

a= 0.32 m/s^2

Part b)

F_c = 3.6 N

Part c)

F_c = 5.5 N

Explanation:

Part a)

As we know that the friction force on two boxes is given as

F_f = \mu m_a g + \mu m_b g

F_f = 0.02(10.6 + 7)9.81

F_f = 3.45 N

Now we know by Newton's II law

F_{net} = ma

so we have

F_p - F_f = (m_a + m_b) a

9.1 - 3.45 = (10.6 + 7) a

a = \frac{5.65}{17.6}

a= 0.32 m/s^2

Part b)

For block B we know that net force on it will push it forward with same acceleration so we have

F_c - F_f = m_b a

F_c = \mu m_b g + m_b a

F_c = 0.02(7)(9.8) + 7(0.32)

F_c = 3.6 N

Part c)

If Alex push from other side then also the acceleration will be same

So for box B we can say that Net force is given as

F_p - F_f - F_c = m_b a

9.1 - 0.02(7)(9.8) - F_c = 7(0.32)

F_c = 9.1 - 0.02 (7)(9.8) - 7(0.32)

F_c = 5.5 N

(a) If a proton with a kinetic energy of 6.2 MeV is traveling in a particle accelerator in a circular orbit with a radius of 0.5
Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

The fraction of its energy that it radiates every second is 3.02\times10^{-11}.

Explanation:

Suppose Electromagnetic radiation is emitted by accelerating charges. The rate at which energy is emitted from an accelerating charge that has charge q and acceleration a is given by

\dfrac{dE}{dt}=\dfrac{q^2a^2}{6\pi\epsilon_{0}c^3}

Given that,

Kinetic energy = 6.2 MeV

Radius = 0.500 m

We need to calculate the acceleration

Using formula of acceleration

a=\dfrac{v^2}{r}

Put the value into the formula

a=\dfrac{\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2}{\dfrac{1}{2}mr}

Put the value into the formula

a=\dfrac{6.2\times10^{6}\times1.6\times10^{-19}}{\dfrac{1}{2}\times1.67\times10^{-27}\times0.51}

a=2.32\times10^{15}\ m/s^2

We need to calculate the rate at which it emits energy because of its acceleration is

\dfrac{dE}{dt}=\dfrac{q^2a^2}{6\pi\epsilon_{0}c^3}

Put the value into the formula

\dfrac{dE}{dt}=\dfrac{(1.6\times10^{-19})^2\times(2.3\times10^{15})^2}{6\pi\times8.85\times10^{-12}\times(3\times10^{8})^3}

\dfrac{dE}{dt}=3.00\times10^{-23}\ J/s

The energy in ev/s

\dfrac{dE}{dt}=\dfrac{3.00\times10^{-23}}{1.6\times10^{-19}}\ J/s

\dfrac{dE}{dt}=1.875\times10^{-4}\ ev/s

We need to calculate the fraction of its energy that it radiates every second

\dfrac{\dfrac{dE}{dt}}{E}=\dfrac{1.875\times10^{-4}}{6.2\times10^{6}}

\dfrac{\dfrac{dE}{dt}}{E}=3.02\times10^{-11}

Hence, The fraction of its energy that it radiates every second is 3.02\times10^{-11}.

madam [21]

Answer:

t = 4.41 10⁻⁴ years

Explanation:

For this exercise we must use the concept of average life time, which is the time in which the quantity and substance decays in half

    T_{1/2}  = ln2 / λ

Let's calculate the decay constant of plutonium

    λ  = ln2 /  T_{1/2}

    λ  = ln 2 / 2.44 10⁵  

    λ  = 2.84 10⁻⁶  s⁻¹

Radioactive decay is a first order process

     N = No e (-λ   t)

Where N is the number of nuclei, the mass is this by molecular weight

    m = N PM

    m / PM = m₀ / PM e (- λ  t)

    m / m₀ = e (- λ  t)

    -λ  t = ln (m / m₀)

     t = -1 /λ   ln (m/m₀)

     t = - 1 / 2.84 10⁻⁶   ln (0.1 / 0.35)

     t = 4.41 10⁻⁴ years
