Compute the kinetic energy of a proton (mass 1.67×10−27kg ) using both the nonrelativistic and relativistic expressions for spee

JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

The non-relativistic kinetic energy of a proton is $6.76\times10^{-12}\ J$

The relativistic kinetic energy of a proton is $7.25\times10^{-12}\ m/s$

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of proton $m=1.67\times10^{-27}\ kg$

Speed $v= 9.00\times10^{7}\ m/s$

We need to calculate the kinetic energy for non relativistic

Using formula of kinetic energy

$K.E=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2$

Put the value into the formula

$K.E=\dfrac{1}{2}\times1.67\times10^{-27}\times(9.00\times10^{7})^2$

$K.E=6.76\times10^{-12}\ J$

We need to calculate the kinetic energy for relativistic

Using formula of kinetic energy

$K.E=mc^2(\sqrt{(\dfrac{1}{1-\dfrac{v^2}{c^2}})}-1)$

$K.E=1.67\times10^{-27}\times(3\times10^{8})^{2}\cdot\left(\sqrt{\frac{1}{1-\frac{\left(9.00\times10^{7}\right)^{2}}{(3\times10^{8})^{2}}}}-1\right)$

$K.E=7.25\times10^{-12}\ m/s$

Hence, The non-relativistic kinetic energy of a proton is $6.76\times10^{-12}\ J$

The relativistic kinetic energy of a proton is $7.25\times10^{-12}\ m/s$

anygoal [31]

Answer:

B) 4500 Pa

Explanation:

As pressure is force per unit area,

P = F/A

It stands to reason that the smallest pressure for a given force is when it is shared by the largest area.

The possible areas are

0.30(0.40) = 0.12 m²

0.30(0.50) = 0.15 m²

0.40(0.50) = 0.20 m²

The pressure when the face with the largest area (0.20 m²) is down is

P = 900 / 0.20 = 4500 N/m² or 4500 Pa

the other possible pressures would be

900/0.15 = 6000 Pa

900/0.12 = 7500 Pa

which are both larger than our solution.
