15 points! An atomic nucleus initially moving at 420 m/s emits an alpha particle in the direction of its velocity, and the remai

alexandr1967 [171]

The alpha particle is emitted at 4235 m/s

Explanation:

We can use the law of conservation of momentum to solve the problem: the total momentum of the original nucleus must be equal to the total momentum after the alpha particle has been emitted. Therefore:

$p_i = p_f\\ Mu=m_1 v_1 + m_2 v_2 =$

where:

$M =222u$ is the mass of the original nucleus

$v=420 m/s$ is the initial velocity of the nucleus

$m_1 = 4 u$ is the mass of the alpha particle

$v_1$ is the final velocity of the alpha particle

$m_2 = 222u-4u = 218 u$ is the mass of the daughter nucleus

$v_2 = 350 m/s$ is the final velocity of the nucleus

Solving for $v_1$ , we find the final velocity of the alpha particle:

$v_1 = \frac{Mu-m_2 v_2}{m_1}=\frac{(222)(420)-(218)(350)}{4}=4235 m/s$

27b. You're in an airplane that flies horizontally with speed 1000 km/h (280 m/s) when an engine falls off. Ignore air resistanc

jonny [76]

Answer:

8400m

Explanation:

The engine that falls off would have the same constant horizontal velocity as the airplane's when if falls off if we ignore air resistance. So it would have a horizontal velocity of 280m/s for 30seconds before it hits the ground.

Therefor the horizontal distance the engine travels during its fall is

280 * 30 = 8400m
