Answer:

6.5 x 10^32 eV

Explanation:

mass of particle, mo = 1 g = 0.001 kg

velocity of particle, v = half of velocity of light = c / 2

c = 3 x 10^8 m/s

Energy associated to the particle

E = γ mo c^2

E=\frac{m_{0}c^}2}{\sqrt{1-\frac{v^{2}}{c^{2}}}}

E=\frac{m_{0}c^}2}{\sqrt{1-\frac{c^{2}}{4c^{2}}}}

E=\frac{2m_{0}c^}2}{\sqrt{3}}

E=\frac{2\times0.001\times9\times10^{16}}{1.732}

E=1.04\times10^{14}J

Convert Joule into eV

1 eV = 1.6 x 10^-19 J

So, E=\frac{1.04\times10^{14}}{1.6\times10^{-19}}=6.5\times10^{32}eV

When a driver presses the brake pedal, his car can stop with an acceleration of -5.4m/s^2. How far will the car travel while com
Dahasolnce [82]
Information that is given:
a = -5.4m/s^2
v0 = 25 m/s
---------------------
S = ?
Calculate the S(distance car traveled) with the formula for velocity of decelerated motion:
v^2 = v0^2 - 2aS
The velocity at the end of the motion equals zero (0) because the car stops, so v=0.
0 = v0^2 - 2aS
v0^2 = 2aS
S = v0^2/2a
S = (25 m/s)^2/(2×5.4 m/s^2)
S = (25 m/s)^2/(10.8 m/s^2)
S = (625 m^2/s^2)/(10.8 m/s^2)
S = 57.87 m
