Consider an electron confined in a region of nuclear dimensions (about 5 fm). Find its minimumpossible kinetic energy in MeV. Tr

eat this problem as one-dimensional, and use the relativistic relationbetweenEandp. Give your answer to 2 significant figures. (The large value you will find is a strongargument against the presence of electrons inside nuclei, since no known mechanism could contain anelectron with this much energy.)

Answer:

39.40 MeV

Explanation:

<u>Determine the minimum possible Kinetic energy </u>

width of region = 5 fm

From Heisenberg's uncertainty relation below

ΔxΔp ≥ h/2 , where : 2Δx = 5fm ,  Δpc = hc/2Δx = 39.4 MeV

when we apply this values using the relativistic energy-momentum relation

E^2 = ( mc^2)^2 + ( pc )^2 = 39.4 MeV ( right answer ) because the energy grows quadratically in nonrelativistic approximation,

Also in a nuclear confinement ( E, P >> mc )

while The large value will portray a Non-relativistic limit  as calculated below

K = h^2 / 2ma^2 = 1.52 GeV

Three cars (car F, car G, and car H) are moving with the same velocity when the driver suddenly slams on the brakes, locking the
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

Car H

Explanation:

Frictional force is a resistant force. It is given as:

F = u*m*g

Where u = coefficient of friction

m = mass

g = acceleration due to gravity

From the formula above, we see that frictional force is dependent on the mass of object and the coefficient of friction.

Since they all have the same tires, the coefficient of friction between the tire and the floor is the same for each car. Acceleration due to gravity, g, is constant.

The only factor that determines the frictional force of each car is the mass. Hence, the more the mass, the more the frictional force.

So, the most massive car will have the most frictional force and hence, will come to a stop quicker than the others. The least massive car will have the least frictional force and so, will take a longer time to stop.

A centrifuge in a forensics laboratory rotates at an angular speed of 3,700 rev/min. When switched off, it rotates 46.0 times be
ra1l [238]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given,

initial angular speed, ω = 3,700 rev/min

                                      = 3700\times \dfrac{2\pi}{60}=387.27\ rad/s

final angular speed = 0 rad/s

Number of time it rotates= 46 times

angular displacement, θ = 2π x 46 = 92 π

Angular acceleration

\alpha = \dfrac{\omega_f^2 - \omega^2}{2\theta}

\alpha = \dfrac{0 - 387.27^2}{2\times 92\ pi}

\alpha = -259.28 rad/s^2

Serjik [45]

Answer:

-16\omega sin(\omega t + \pi/4)

Explanation:

The function of the current with respect to time is the derivative of the charge function with respect to time t. We can apply chain rule to differentiate it:

I(t) = Q'(t) = (16cos(\omega t + \pi/4))' \\= -16(\omega t + \pi/4)' sin(\omega t + \pi/4) \\= -16\omega sin(\omega t + \pi/4)
