Find the ratio of speeds of a proton and an alpha particle accelerated through the same voltage, assuming nonrelativistic final

speeds. Take the mass of the alpha particle to be 6.64 ✕ 10−27 kg.

Answer:

The required ratio is 1.99.

Explanation:

We need to find the atio of speeds of a proton and an alpha particle accelerated through the same voltage.

We know that,

eV=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

The LHS for both proton and an alpha particle is the same.

So,

\dfrac{v_p}{v_a}=\sqrt{\dfrac{m_a}{m_p}} \\\\\dfrac{v_p}{v_a}=\sqrt{\dfrac{6.64\times 10^{-27}}{1.67\times 10^{-27}}} \\\\=1.99

So, the ratio of the speeds of a proton and an alpha particle is equal to 1.99.

What resistance would produce a current of 200A with a potiential difference of 200V?
viktelen [127]
Aw, I hate physics, is this on Apex?

Resistance can be calculated with the information given in the question.
Equation for Resistance: R = V/I
V (voltage) = 200 Volts
I (current) = 200 Amps

So 200 divided by 200 = freaking 1

Answer: R = 1 (ohms)

Hope this Helps!

ANTONII [103]

Answer:

Explanation:

The processes are described on the image attached below. The isobaric process consists of an horizontal line, the adiabatic expansion is described by a polytropic curve:

P_{2} \cdot V_{2}^{\gamma} = P_{3} \cdot V_{3}^{\gamma}

Where:

\gamma = \frac{c_{p}}{c_{v}}

\gamma = 1 + \frac{R}{c_{v}}

Final pressure is:

P_{3} = P_{2}\cdot \left(\frac{V_{2}}{V_{3}}  \right)^{\gamma}

P_{3} = P_{o}\cdot \left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^{\gamma}

P_{3} = \frac{P_{o}}{2^{\gamma}}

On February 15, 2013, Asteroid 2012 DA14 passed within 17,200 miles [mi] of the surface of the Earth at a relative speed of 7.8
xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

The total amount of energy that would have been released if the asteroid hit earth = The kinetic energy of the asteroid = 1.29 × 10¹⁵ J = 1.29 PetaJoules = 1.29 PJ

1 PJ = 10¹⁵ J

Explanation:

Kinetic energy = mv²/2

velocity of the asteroid is given as 7.8 km/s = 7800 m/s

To obtain the mass, we get it from the specific gravity and diameter information given.

Density = specific gravity × 1000 = 3 × 1000 = 3000 kg/m³

But density = mass/volume

So, mass = density × volume.

Taking the informed assumption that the asteroid is a sphere,

Volume = 4πr³/3

Diameter = 30 m, r = D/2 = 15 m

Volume = 4π(15)³/3 = 14137.2 m³

Mass of the asteroid = density × volume = 3000 × 14137.2 = 42411501 kg = 4.24 × 10⁷ kg

Kinetic energy of the asteroid = mv²/2 = (4.24 × 10⁷)(7800²)/2 = 1.29 × 10¹⁵ J
