Answer:
K = 1.29eV
Explanation:
In order to calculate the kinetic energy of the proton you first take into account the uncertainty principle, which is given by:
(1)
Δx : uncertainty of position = 2.0pm = 2.0*10^-12m
Δp: uncertainty of momentum = ?
h: Planck's constant = 6.626*10^-34 J.s
You calculate the minimum possible value of Δp from the equation (1):
The minimum kinetic energy is calculated by using the following formula:
(2)
m: mass of the proton = 1.67*10^{-27}kg
in eV you have:
The kinetic energy of the proton is 1.29eV
Answer:
19.8 J
Explanation:
According to the law of conservation of energy, the total mechanical energy of the spring (sum of kinetic energy and elastic potential energy) must be conserved:
(1)
where we have
is the initial kinetic energy of the spring, which is zero because the spring starts from rest (2)
is the elastic potential energy of the spring when it is fully stretched
is the kinetic energy of the spring when it reaches the natural length
is the elastic potential energy of the spring when it reaches its natural length, which is zero because the stretch in this case is zero (3)
So
where
k = 440 N/m is the spring constant
is the initial stretching of the spring
Substituting,
And so using eq.(1) and keeping in mind (2) and (3) we find
