Answer:

In SI units, its value is approximately 6.674×10−11 m3⋅kg−1⋅s−2. The modern notation of Newton's law involving G was introduced in the 1890s by C. V. Boys. The first implicit measurement with an accuracy within about 1% is attributed to Henry Cavendish in a 1798 experiment.

Alpha particles, each having a charge of +2e and a mass of 6.64 ×10-27 kg, are accelerated in a uniform 0.50 T magnetic field to

sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer:

$KE=1.2036\times 10^{-12}\ J$

Explanation:

Given:

charge on the alpha particle, $q=2e=3.2\times 10^{-19}\ C$

mass of the alpha particle, $m=6.64\times 10^{-27}\ kg$

strength of a uniform magnetic field, $B=0.5\ T$

radius of the final orbit, $r=0.5\ m$

During the motion of a charge the magnetic force and the centripetal forces are balanced:

$q.v.B=m.\frac{v^2}{r}$

$m.v=q.B.r$

where:

v = velocity of the alpha particle

$v=\frac{q.B.r}{m}$

$v=\frac{3.2\times 10^{-19}\times 0.5\times 0.5}{6.64\times 10^{-27}}$

$v=1.2048\times 10^{7}\ m.s^{-1}$

Here we observe that the velocity of the aprticle is close to the velocity of light. So the kinetic energy will be relativistic.

We firstly find the relativistic mass as:

$m'=\frac{1}{\sqrt{1-\frac{v^2}{c^2} } } \times m$

$m'=\frac{6.64\times 10^{-27}}{\sqrt{1-\frac{(1.2048\times 10^7)^2}{(3\times 10^8)^2} } }$

$m'=6.6533\times10^{-27}\ kg$

now kinetic energy:

$KE=m'.c-m.c$

$KE=6.6533\times 10^{-27}\times (3\times 10^8)^2-6.64\times 10^{-27}\times (3\times 10^8)^2$

$KE=1.2036\times 10^{-12}\ J$

3. Write any two types of force.

Lerok [7]

Answer:

An applied force is a force that is applied to an object by a person or another object. If a person is pushing a desk across the room, then there is an applied force acting upon the object. The applied force is the force exerted on the desk by the person.

A friction force is the force exerted by a surface as an object moves across it or makes an effort to move across it. There are at least two types of friction force - sliding and static friction. Though it is not always the case, the friction force often opposes the motion of an object. For example, if a book slides across the surface of a desk, then the desk exerts a friction force in the opposite direction of its motion. Friction results from the two surfaces being pressed together closely, causing intermolecular attractive forces between molecules of different surfaces. As such, friction depends upon the nature of the two surfaces and upon the degree to which they are pressed together. The maximum amount of friction force that a surface can exert upon an object can be calculated using the formula below:

$F_{frict}$ = µ • $F_{norm}$

Which kind of road surface is easier to see when driving at night, a pebbled uneven surface or a mirror smooth surface?

pshichka [43]

A pebbled, uneven road would be easier to see at night because it minimizes the reflection of light from car’s light coming in the opposite direction. It is difficult to see when driving on the rainy day because the roadway reflects light from cars coming in the opposite directions.
