W boson has +1e or - 1e charge, Z boson has 0 charge.

Leptons have +1e, -1e or 0 charge.

Photons have 0 charge.

Only quarks have a charge of +2/3e or -1/3e of an electron charge.

To be exact, only up-type quarks (Up, Down and Top quarks) have a +2/3e or two thirds of an electron charge.

So the correct answer is D) Quark.

A 0.90-kg falcon is diving at 28.0 m/s at a downward angle of 35° . It catches a 0.325-kg pigeon from behind in midair. What is

pashok25 [27]

Answer:

22.11 m / s

Explanation:

The falcon catches the prey from behind means both are flying in the same direction ( suppose towards the left )

initial velocity of falcon = 28 cos 35 i - 28 sin 35 j

( falcon was flying in south east direction making 35 degree from the east )

momentum = .9 ( 28 cos 35 i - 28 sin 35 j )

= 20.64 i - 14.45 j

initial velocity of pigeon

= 7 i

initial momentum = .325 x 7i

= 2.275 i

If final velocity of composite mass of falcon and pigeon be V

Applying law of conservation of momentum

( .9 + .325) V = 20.64 i - 14.45 j +2.275 i

V = ( 22.915 i - 14.45 j ) / 1.225

= 18.70 i - 11.8 j

magnitude of V

= √ [ (18.7 )² + ( 11.8 )²]

= 22.11 m / s

The lowest note on a grand piano has a frequency of 27.5 Hz. The entire string is 2.00 m long and has a mass of 400 g. The vibra

Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

1456 N

Explanation:

Given that

Frequency of the piano, f = 27.5 Hz

Entire length of the string, l = 2 m

Mass of the piano, m = 400 g

Length of the vibrating section of the string, L = 1.9 m

Tension needed, T = ?

The formula for the tension is represented as

T = 4mL²f²/ l, where

T = tension

m = mass

L = length of vibrating part

F = frequency

l = length of the whole part

If we substitute and apply the values we have Fri. The question, we would have

T = (4 * 0.4 * 1.9² * 27.5²) / 2

T = 4368.1 / 2

T = 1456 N

Thus, we could conclude that the tension needed to tune the string properly is 1456 N

A proton is projected toward a fixed nucleus of charge Ze with velocity vo. Initially the two particles are very far apart. When

11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

The value is $R_f = \frac{4}{5} R$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The initial velocity of the proton is $v_o$

At a distance R from the nucleus the velocity is $v_1 = \frac{1}{2} v_o$

The velocity considered is $v_2 = \frac{1}{4} v_o$

Generally considering from initial position to a position of distance R from the nucleus

Generally from the law of energy conservation we have that

$\Delta K = \Delta P$

Here $\Delta K$ is the change in kinetic energy from initial position to a position of distance R from the nucleus , this is mathematically represented as

$\Delta K = K__{R}} - K_i$

=> $\Delta K = \frac{1}{2} * m * v_1^2 - \frac{1}{2} * m * v_o^2$

=> $\Delta K = \frac{1}{2} * m * (\frac{1}{2} * v_o )^2 - \frac{1}{2} * m * v_o^2$

=> $\Delta K = \frac{1}{2} * m * \frac{1}{4} * v_o ^2 - \frac{1}{2} * m * v_o^2$

And $\Delta P$ is the change in electric potential energy from initial position to a position of distance R from the nucleus , this is mathematically represented as

$\Delta P = P_f - P_i$

Here $P_i$ is zero because the electric potential energy at the initial stage is zero so

$\Delta P = k * \frac{q_1 * q_2 }{R} - 0$

So

$\frac{1}{2} * m * \frac{1}{4} * v_o ^2 - \frac{1}{2} * m * v_o^2 = k * \frac{q_1 * q_2 }{R} - 0$

=> $\frac{1}{2} * m *v_0^2 [ \frac{1}{4} -1 ] = k * \frac{q_1 * q_2 }{R}$

=> $- \frac{3}{8} * m *v_0^2 = k * \frac{q_1 * q_2 }{R} ---(1 )$

Generally considering from initial position to a position of distance $R_f$ from the nucleus

Here $R_f$ represented the distance of the proton from the nucleus where the velocity is $\frac{1}{4} v_o$

Generally from the law of energy conservation we have that

$\Delta K_f = \Delta P_f$

Here $\Delta K$ is the change in kinetic energy from initial position to a position of distance R from the nucleus , this is mathematically represented as

$\Delta K_f = K_f - K_i$

=> $\Delta K_f = \frac{1}{2} * m * v_2^2 - \frac{1}{2} * m * v_o^2$

=> $\Delta K_f = \frac{1}{2} * m * (\frac{1}{4} * v_o )^2 - \frac{1}{2} * m * v_o^2$

=> $\Delta K_f = \frac{1}{2} * m * \frac{1}{16} * v_o ^2 - \frac{1}{2} * m * v_o^2$

And $\Delta P$ is the change in electric potential energy from initial position to a position of distance $R_f$ from the nucleus , this is mathematically represented as

$\Delta P_f = P_f - P_i$

Here $P_i$ is zero because the electric potential energy at the initial stage is zero so

$\Delta P_f = k * \frac{q_1 * q_2 }{R_f } - 0$

So

$\frac{1}{2} * m * \frac{1}{8} * v_o ^2 - \frac{1}{2} * m * v_o^2 = k * \frac{q_1 * q_2 }{R_f }$

=> $\frac{1}{2} * m *v_o^2 [-\frac{15}{16} ] = k * \frac{q_1 * q_2 }{R_f }$

=> $- \frac{15}{32} * m *v_o^2 = k * \frac{q_1 * q_2 }{R_f } ---(2)$

Divide equation 2 by equation 1

$\frac{- \frac{15}{32} * m *v_o^2 }{- \frac{3}{8} * m *v_0^2 } } = \frac{k * \frac{q_1 * q_2 }{R_f } }{k * \frac{q_1 * q_2 }{R } }}$

=> $-\frac{15}{32 } * -\frac{8}{3} = \frac{R}{R_f}$

=> $\frac{5}{4} = \frac{R}{R_f}$

=> $R_f = \frac{4}{5} R$
