Answer:

The objects speed or motion does not change if the net force is 0.

Explanation: There basically doesn't have anything acting on it so it stays put.

A photon of wavelength 2.78 pm scatters at an angle of 147° from an initially stationary, unbound electron. What is the de Brogl

Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

2.07 pm

Explanation:

The problem given here is the very well known Compton effect which is expressed as

$\lambda^{'}-\lambda=\frac{h}{m_e c}(1-cos\theta)$

here, $\lambda$ is the initial photon wavelength, $\lambda^{'}$ is the scattered photon wavelength, h is he Planck's constant, $m_e$ is the free electron mass, c is the velocity of light, $\theta$ is the angle of scattering.

Given that, the scattering angle is, $\theta=147^{\circ}$

Putting the respective values, we get

$\lambda^{'}-\lambda=\frac{6.626\times 10^{-34} }{9.11\times 10^{-31}\times 3\times 10^{8} } (1-cos147^\circ ) m\\\lambda^{'}-\lambda=2.42\times 10^{-12} (1-cos147^\circ ) m.\\\lambda^{'}-\lambda=2.42(1-cos147^\circ ) p.m.\\\lambda^{'}-\lambda=4.45 p.m.$

Here, the photon's incident wavelength is $\lamda=2.78pm$

Therefore,

$\lambda^{'}=2.78+4.45=7.23 pm$

From the conservation of momentum,

$\vec{P_\lambda}=\vec{P_{\lambda^{'}}}+\vec{P_e}$

where, $\vec{P_\lambda}$ is the initial photon momentum, $\vec{P_{\lambda^{'}}}$ is the final photon momentum and $\vec{P_e}$ is the scattered electron momentum.

Expanding the vector sum, we get

$P^2_{e}=P^2_{\lambda}+P^2_{\lambda^{'}}-2P_\lambda P_{\lambda^{'}}cos\theta$

Now expressing the momentum in terms of De-Broglie wavelength

$P=h/\lambda,$

and putting it in the above equation we get,

$\lambda_{e}=\frac{\lambda \lambda^{'}}{\sqrt{\lambda^{2}+\lambda^{2}_{'}-2\lambda \lambda^{'} cos\theta}}$

Therefore,

$\lambda_{e}=\frac{2.78\times 7.23}{\sqrt{2.78^{2}+7.23^{2}-2\times 2.78\times 7.23\times cos147^\circ }} pm\\\lambda_{e}=\frac{20.0994}{9.68} = 2.07 pm$

This is the de Broglie wavelength of the electron after scattering.

An 3.7 lb hammer head, traveling at 5.8 ft/s strikes a nail and is brought to a stop in 0.00068 s. The acceleration of gravity i

CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

31677.2 lb

Explanation:

mass of hammer (m) = 3.7 lb

initial velocity (u) = 5.8 ft/s

final velocity (v) = 0

time (t) = 0.00068 s

acceleration due to gravity (g) 32 ft/s^{2}

force = m x ( a + g )

where

m is the mass = 3.7 lb
g is the acceleration due to gravity = 32 ft/s^{2}
a is the acceleration of the hammer

from v = u + at

a = (v-u)/ t

a = (0-5.8)/0.00068 = -8529.4 ( the negative sign showa the its decelerating)

we can substitute all required values into force= m x (a+g)

force = 3.7 x (8529.4 + 32) = 31677.2 lb
