An accelerator produces a beam of protons with a circular cross section that is 2.0 mm in diameter and has a current of 1.0 mA.

The current density is uniformly distributed through the beam. The kinetic energy of each proton is 20 MeV. The beam strikes a metal target and is absorbed by the target. (a) What is the number density of the protons in the beam

Answer:

the number density of the protons in the beam is 3.2 × 10¹³ m⁻³

Explanation:

Given that;

diameter D = 2.0 mm

current I = 1.0 mA

K.E of each proton is 20 MeV

the number density of the protons in the beam = ?

Now, we make use of the relation between current and drift velocity

I = MeAv ⇒ 1 / eAv

The kinetic energy of protons is given by;

K = \frac{1}{2}m_{p}v²

v = √( 2K / m_{p} )

lets relate the cross-sectional area A of the beam to its diameter D;

A = \frac{1}{4}πD²

now, we substitute for v and A

n = I / \frac{1}{4}πeD² ×√( 2K / m_{p} )

n = 4I/π eD² × √(m_{p} / 2K )

so we plug in our values;

n = ((4×1.0 mA)/(π(1.602×10⁻¹⁹C)(2mm)²) × √(1.673×10⁻²⁷kg / 2×( 20 MeV)(1.602×10⁻¹⁹ J/ev )

n =  1.98695 × 10¹⁸ × 1.6157967  × 10⁻⁵

n = 3.2 × 10¹³ m⁻³  

Therefore, the number density of the protons in the beam is 3.2 × 10¹³ m⁻³

A cyclist rides 6.2 km east, then 9.28 km in a direction 27.27 degrees west of north, then 7.99 km west. A. What is the magnitud
Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

Explanation:

given,

cyclist ride  6.2 km east and then 9.28 km in the direction of 27.27° west of north and then 7.99 km west.

vertical component = 9.28 cos∅

                                = 9.28 cos 27.27°

                                = 8.24 km

horizontal axis component = 9.28 sin ∅

                                             = 9.28 sin 27.27°

                                             = 4.5 km

distance of the final point from the origin

                            = 7.99 -(6.2-4.5)

                            = 6.29 km

displacement

d = \sqrt{6.29^2+8.24^2}

d = 10.37 km

b) tan \theta = \dfrac{6.29}{8.24}

θ = 37.36°

ANSWER One end of a string is attached to an object of mass M, and the other end of the string is secured so that the object is
qaws [65]

Answer:

Explanation:

It is a case of oscillation by simple pendulum . Expression for simple pendulum is given as follows

T = 2\pi\sqrt{\frac{l}{g} }

where T is time period , l is length of pendulum and g is acceleration due to gravity .

\frac{1}{f} =2\pi\sqrt{\frac{l}{g} }  , f is frequency of oscillation

For the given case

\frac{1}{f_o} =2\pi\sqrt{\frac{l}{g} }

subsequently length becomes half so

\frac{1}{f} =2\pi\sqrt{\frac{l}{2g} }

dividing

\frac{f}{f_o} = \sqrt{\frac{2}{1} }

f = \sqrt{2} f_o

frequency of oscillation becomes √2 times.
