Consider the wave function y(x)-Find the probability of fi in the range -a

Physics
1 answer:
Lera25 [3.4K]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:(y(x))^{2}

Explanation:

The probability of fi in a range is given by the integral, whose limits are the range limits, of the square of the wave function y(x).

Example:

let's say range [a,b] with wave function y(x), then

Prob(a\leq x\leq  b)=\int\limits^b_a {y(x)^{2} } \, dx

A steel ball of mass 0.500 kg is fastened to a cord that is 70.0 cm long and fixed at the far end. The ball is then released whe
Liula [17]

Answer:

a) v₁fin = 3.7059 m/s   (→)

b) v₂fin = 1.0588 m/s     (→)

Explanation:

a) Given

m₁ = 0.5 Kg

L = 70 cm = 0.7 m

v₁in = 0 m/s   ⇒  Kin = 0 J

v₁fin = ?

h<em>in </em>= L = 0.7 m

h<em>fin </em>= 0 m   ⇒    U<em>fin</em> = 0 J

The speed of the ball before the collision can be obtained as follows

Einitial = Efinal

⇒ Kin + Uin = Kfin + Ufin

⇒ 0 + m*g*h<em>in</em> = 0.5*m*v₁fin² + 0

⇒ v₁fin = √(2*g*h<em>in</em>) = √(2*(9.81 m/s²)*(0.70 m))

⇒ v₁fin = 3.7059 m/s   (→)

b)  Given

m₁ = 0.5 Kg

m₂ = 3.0 Kg

v₁ = 3.7059 m/s    (→)

v₂ = 0 m/s

v₂fin = ?

The speed of the block just after the collision can be obtained using the equation

v₂fin = 2*m₁*v₁ / (m₁ + m₂)

⇒  v₂fin = (2*0.5 Kg*3.7059 m/s) / (0.5 Kg + 3.0 Kg)

⇒  v₂fin = 1.0588 m/s     (→)

On the Apollo 14 mission to the moon, astronaut Alan Shepard hit a golf ball with a 6 iron. The acceleration due to gravity on t
kozerog [31]

Answer:

a) 6 times farther.  b) 6 times longer.

Explanation:

Once released, in the horizontal direction, no other forces act on the ball, so it continues moving at the same initial velocity, which is given by the projection of the velocity vector in the horizontal direction, as follows:

vₓ = v* cos (25º) = 23 m/s * 0.906 = 20.8 m/s

In the vertical direction, the initial velocity is the projection of the velocity vector along the vertical axis, as follows:

vy = v* sin (25º) = 23 m/s * 0.422 = 9.72 m/s

Assuming that the acceleration is constant, and equal to 1/6*g, we can calculate the total time of flight, with the following kinematic equation for the vertical displacement:

y = voy*t - (\frac{1}{2}*\frac{g}{6} * t^{2} )

If the total displacement in the vertical direction is 0 (which means  that the time if the total time of flight), we can solve for t, as follows:

t = \frac{voy*12}{g} = \frac{9.72 m/s*12}{9.8m/s2} = 11. 9 s

On earth, this time could be calculated in the same way:

t = \frac{voy*12}{g} = \frac{9.72 m/s*2}{9.8m/s2} = 1.98 s

As the time is defined by the vertical movement, we can find the horizontal distance travelled on the moon, as follows:

Δx = v₀ₓ * t = 20.8 m/s * 11. 9 s = 248.1 m

On earth, the distance travelled had been as follows:

Δx = v₀ₓ * t = 20.8 m/s * 1.98 s = 41.3 m

⇒ Δx(moon) / Δx(earth) = 248.1 / 41.3 = 6.00

b) As we have just found, the time of flight on the moon and on the earth are as follows:

tmoon = 11. 9 s

tearth = 1.98 s

⇒ t(moon) / t(earth) = 11.9 / 1.98 = 6.0
