Why does our solar system have a asteroid belt

Physics
1 answer:
amid [387]2 years ago
7 0
Answer: The asteroid belt (sometimes referred to as the main asteroid belt) orbits between Mars and Jupiter. It consists of asteroids and minor planets forming a disk around the sun. ... Astronomers also assumed that Jupiter's gravity prevented the material in the belt from coalescing into larger planets.

What provides most of the force to allow the runners to move?
kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

When you are running the most important force that you should understand is friction. Friction is a force that opposes movement between two objects, but for runners friction makes you faster. Friction gives you a better and more efficient way to use your energy into speed.

An electron and a proton each have a thermal kinetic energy of 3kBT/2. Calculate the de Broglie wavelength of each particle at a
S_A_V [24]

Answer:

Given:

Thermal Kinetic Energy of an electron, KE_{t} = \frac{3}{2}k_{b}T

k_{b} = 1.38\times 10^{- 23} J/k = Boltzmann's constant

Temperature, T = 1800 K

Solution:

Now, to calculate the de-Broglie wavelength of the electron, \lambda_{e}:

\lambda_{e} = \frac{h}{p_{e}}

\lambda_{e} = \frac{h}{m_{e}{v_{e}}              (1)

where

h = Planck's constant = 6.626\times 10^{- 34}m^{2}kg/s

p_{e} = momentum of an electron

v_{e} = velocity of an electron

m_{e} = 9.1\times 10_{- 31} kg = mass of electon

Now,

Kinetic energy of an electron = thermal kinetic energy

\frac{1}{2}m_{e}v_{e}^{2} = \frac{3}{2}k_{b}T

}v_{e} = \sqrt{2\frac{\frac{3}{2}k_{b}T}{m_{e}}}

}v_{e} = \sqrt{\frac{3\times 1.38\times 10^{- 23}\times 1800}{9.1\times 10_{- 31}}}

v_{e} = 2.86\times 10^{5} m/s                    (2)

Using eqn (2) in (1):

\lambda_{e} = \frac{6.626\times 10^{- 34}}{9.1\times 10_{- 31}\times 2.86\times 10^{5}} = 2.55 nm

Now, to calculate the de-Broglie wavelength of proton, \lambda_{e}:

\lambda_{p} = \frac{h}{p_{p}}

\lambda_{p} = \frac{h}{m_{p}{v_{p}}                             (3)

where

m_{p} = 1.6726\times 10_{- 27} kg = mass of proton

v_{p} = velocity of an proton

Now,

Kinetic energy of a proton = thermal kinetic energy

\frac{1}{2}m_{p}v_{p}^{2} = \frac{3}{2}k_{b}T

}v_{p} = \sqrt{2\frac{\frac{3}{2}k_{b}T}{m_{p}}}

}v_{p} = \sqrt{\frac{3\times 1.38\times 10^{- 23}\times 1800}{1.6726\times 10_{- 27}}}

v_{p} = 6.674\times 10^{3} m/s                               (4)                    

Using eqn (4) in (3):

\lambda_{p} = \frac{6.626\times 10^{- 34}}{1.6726\times 10_{- 27}\times 6.674\times 10^{3}} = 5.94\times 10^{- 11} m = 0.0594 nm

A grating has 2000 slits/cm/cm. How many full spectral orders can be seen (400 to 700 nmnm) when it is illuminated by white ligh
Anton [14]

With the use of the formula SinФ = nλ / d, there are 16 spectral orders which can be seen when it is illuminated by white light.

Given that a grating has 2000 slits/cm. That is,

d = 0.01 / 2000

d = 5 x 10^{-6} m

The wavelength λ = (700 - 400) nm

λ = 300 x 10^{-9} m

To calculate how many full spectral orders that can be seen (400 to 700 nm) when it is illuminated by white light, we will use the below formula

SinФ = nλ / d

Φ = Sin^{-1} (nλ / d)

When n = 1

Φ = Sin^{-1}(300 x 10^{-9}/ 5 x 10^{-6} )

Φ = 3.4 degrees

when n = 2

Φ = Sin^{-1}(2 x 300 x 10^{-9}/ 5 x 10^{-6} )

Ф = 6.9 degrees

When n = 3

Ф = Sin^{-1}(3 x 300 x 10^{-9}/ 5 x 10^{-6} )

When n = 16

Ф = Sin^{-1}(16 x 300 x 10^{-9}/ 5 x 10^{-6} )

Ф = Sin^{-1}(0.96)

Ф = 73.7 degrees

when n = 17

Ф = Sin^{-1}(17 x 300 x 10^{-9}/ 5 x 10^{-6} )

Ф = Sin^{-1}(1.05)

Ф = Error ( that is, it does not exist)

Therefore, there are 16 spectral orders which can be seen when it is illuminated by white light.
