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

Diferencia entre transferencia y transformación de energía. Da ejemplos de cada caso.
Firdavs [7]

Answer:

La transformación de energía es un proceso en el que la energía se intercambia entre un sistema y el medio ambiente en al menos dos formas de energía diferentes entre sí. Por ejemplo, un panel solar convierte la energía lumínica en energía eléctrica.

En cambio, en la transferencia de energía, esta no cambia su forma sino que es transmitida de un cuerpo a otro. El ejemplo más claro es el de la fogata, que transmite calor al medio ambiente a través de radiación.

As a pelican flies through the air, it flaps its wings, thereby pushing down on the air below. What is the reaction force?
madam [21]

Answer:

the reaction force in this situation would be B

Explanation:

The action is the wings pushing down whilst the reaction is the air pushing up which allow the bird to fly .

A student drops a rock from a bridge to the water 12.7 m below. with what speed does the rock strike the water? the acceleration
kolezko [41]

The rock strike the water with the speed of 15.78 m/sec.

The speed by which rock hit the water is calculated by the formula

v=\sqrt{2gh}

v=\sqrt{2*9.8*12.7}

v=15.78 m/sec

Hence, the rock strike the water with the speed of 15.78 m/sec.
