Answer:

A) 1268 MeV

B)  299MeV/c

C) 1268 MeV

Explanation:

Given :

π meson rest energy = 139.6 MeV

Speed = 0.921c

proton at rest energy = 938.3 MeV

a) Find the total relativistic energy of resulting composite particle

E = E(meson) + E(proton)

  = \frac{(mc^2)_{meson} }{\sqrt{1-\frac{v^2}{c^2} } } + (mc^2)_{proton}

  = \frac{139.6MeV}{\sqrt{1-\frac{(0.906c)^2}{c^2} } }  + 938.3

E = 1268 MeV

B) determine the total linear momentum of the composite particle

= 299MeV/c

attached below is the detailed solution

C) Determine the rest energy of the composite particle

E = 1268 MeV

An athlete swings a ball, connected to the end of a chain, in a horizontal circle. The athlete is able to rotate the ball at the
nydimaria [60]

Answer: a) the greater speed for the ball is getting with the large radius of the circle. b) 1.68* 10 ^3 m/s^2 c) 1.25*10^3 m/s^2

Explanation: In order to solve this problem firstly we have to consider that speed in a of the circular movement is directly the angular rotation multiply the radius of the circle so by this we found that the second radius get large speed.

Secondly to calculate the centripetal acceleration for the ball we have to considerer the relationship given by:

acceleration in a circular movement= ω^2*r

so

a1= (8.44 *2*π)^2*r1=1.68 *10^3 m/s^2

a2= (5.95*2*π)^2*r2=1.25*10^3  m/s^2

A power company charges its customers for electricity based upon which one of the following?a. powerb. energyc. power per unit o
Vlad [161]

B. Energy

A power company charges its customers for electricity based upon B. Energy.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Kilo-watt Hours (kWh) is the unit that measures the electricity consumption of customers. Since Power is defined as the rate at which electrical energy is transferred by an electrical circuit per unit time,

P = \frac{E}{t} \\E= P\times t

If energy is transmitted at a constant rate over a period of time, the total energy in kilowatt hours is the product of power in kilowatts(kW) and time in hours (h)

1\ kWh = 3.6\times 10^6\ Joules

Given that the concentration of bovine carbonic anhydrase is 3.3 pmol ⋅ L − 1 and R max ( V max ) = 222 μmol ⋅ L − 1 ⋅ s − 1 , d
LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

The turnover number of the enzyme molecule bovine carbonic anhydrase = 67,272,727.27 s^–1.

Explanation:

Given:

The concentration of bovine carbonic anhydrase = total enzyme concentration = Et = 3.3 pmol⋅L^–1 = 3.3 × 10^–12 mol.L^–1

The maximum rate of reaction = Rmax (Vmax) = 222 μmol⋅L^–1⋅s^–1 = 222 × 10^–6 mol.L^–1⋅s^–1

The formula for the turnover number of an enzyme (kcat, or catalytic rate constant) = Rmax ÷ Et = 222 × 10^–6 mol.L^–1⋅s^–1 ÷ 3.3 × 10^–12 mol.L^–1 = 67,272,727.27 s^–1

Therefore, the turnover number of the enzyme molecule bovine carbonic anhydrase = 67,272,727.27 s^–1

What is the energy stored between 2 Carbon nuclei that are 1.00 nm apart from each other? HINT: Carbon nuclei have 6 protons and
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

A. 8.29\times 10^{-18}\ J

Explanation:

Given that:

p = magnitude of charge on a proton = 1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C

k = Boltzmann constant = 9\times 10^{9}\ Nm^2/C^2

r = distance between the two carbon nuclei = 1.00 nm = 1.00\times 10^{-9}\ m

Since a carbon nucleus contains 6 protons.

So, charge on a carbon nucleus is q = 6p=6\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C=9.6\times 10^{-19}\ C

We know that the electric potential energy between two charges q and Q separated by a distance r is given by:

U = \dfrac{kQq}{r}

So, the potential energy between the two nuclei of carbon is as below:

U= \dfrac{kqq}{r}\\\Rightarrow U = \dfrac{kq^2}{r}\\\Rightarrow U = \dfrac{9\times10^9\times (9.6\times 10^{-19})^2}{1.0\times 10^{-9}}\\\Rightarrow U =8.29\times 10^{-18}\ J

Hence, the energy stored between two nuclei of carbon is 8.29\times 10^{-18}\ J.
