A 4.0 kg mass has a velocity of 10 m/s to the EAST. The 4.0 kg mass is subjected to a constant net force of 16 N to the WEST for

3.0 sec. What is the velocity of the 4.0 kg mass at the end of the 3.0 sec interval?​

Answer:

v = 2.0 m/s West

Explanation:

Let East be the positive direction

The initial momentum of the mass is p = mv = 4.0(10) = 40 kg•m/s East

This is acted on by an impulse of p = Ft = 16(3.0) = 48 N•s west

An impulse will result in a change of momentum

so final momentum of the mass is

40 - 48 = -8 kg•m/s or 8 kg•m/s West

-8 = 4.0v

v = -2.0 m/s or 2.0 m/s West

Gnom [1K]

Answer:

a.) 1567.2 m/s

b.) 149.4 m/s

Explanation:

Given that a 26 kg body is moving through space in the positive direction of an x axis with a speed of 350 m/s when, due to an internal explosion, it breaks into three parts. One part, with a mass of 7.8 kg, moves away from the point of explosion with a speed of 180 m/s in the positive y direction. A second part, with a mass of 8.8 kg, moves in the negative x direction with a speed of 640 m/s.

The x-component of the third part can be calculated by assuming that it moves in a positive x axis.

The third mass = 26 - ( 7.8 + 8.8)

The third mass = 26 - 16.6

The third mass = 9.4kg

since momentum is conserved, the momentum before explosion will be equal to sum of the momentum after explosion

26 x 350 = -8.8 x 640 + 9.4V

9100 = -5632 + 9.4V

9.4V = 9100 + 5632

9.4V = 14732

V = 14732/9.4

V = 1567.2 m/s

(b) y-component of the velocity of the third part will be

7.8 x 180 = 9.4 V

1404 = 9.4V

V = 1404/9.4

V = 149.4 m/s

3. The nuclear potential that binds protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom

is often approximated by a square well. Imagine a proton confined in an infinite

square well of length 10−5 nm, a typical nuclear diameter. Calculate the wavelength

and energy associated with the photon that is emitted when the proton undergoes a

transition from the first excited state (n = 2) to the ground state (n = 1). In what

region of the electromagnetic spectrum does this wavelength belong?

Answer 3

We are given that,

Length of square well = L = 10−5

nm = 10−14 m.

Energy of proton in state n is given by,

En =
