Answer:

2 m = E / c^2      where m is mass of electron

E = h v     where v is the frequency ( nu) of the incident photon

E = h c / y      where y is the incident wavelength (lambda)

2 m = h / (c y)

y = h / (2 m c)      wavelength required

y = 6.62 * 10E-34 / (2 * 9.1 * 10E-31 * 3 * 10E8)  m

y = 3.31 / 27.3 E-11 m

y = 1.21 E -12 m   = .0121 Angstrom units

Review. An electron moves in a circular path perpendicular to a constant magnetic field of magnitude 1.00 mT . The angular momen
Ghella [55]

The speed of an electron when it moves in a circular path perpendicular to a constant magnetic field is 8.88 x 10^7 m/s.

The angular momentum(L) of an electron moving in a circular path is given by the formula,

L = mvr ........(i)

We know that the radius of the path of an electron in a magnetic field is

r = mv/qB

Putting this value in equation (i),

L = mv x mv/qB

or L = (mv)^2/qB

Putting the given values in the above equation,

4 x 10^-25 = (9.1x10^-31)^2 x v^2/ 1.6 x 10^-19 x 1 x 10^-3

v comes out to be 8.88 x 10^7 m/s.

Hence, the speed of an electron when it moves in a circular path perpendicular to a constant magnetic field is 8.88 x 10^7 m/s.

You place a 0.17 kg can of soup and a 0.31 kg jar of pickles on the kitchen counter, separated by a distance of 0.42 m. What is
tangare [24]

1.984 \times 10^{-11} \mathrm{N} \text { is the force of gravity exerted on the jar of pickles. }

<u>Explanation</u>:

According to Newton's third law that each force has an equal and opposite reaction force in this case both of the jars will exert the same force an each other

. The force is given by

\mathrm{F}=\frac{G \times M_{1} \times M_{2}}{r^{2}}

Where, F = force, G=\text { gravitational constant }=\left(6.67 \times 10^{-11}\right), mass \left(\mathrm{M}_{1}\right)=0.17 \mathrm{kg}, mass \left M_{2}= 0.31 \mathrm{kg} and Distance(r) = 0.42 m.

Substitute the values in the formula.

\mathrm{F}=\frac{6.67 \times 10^{-11} \times 0.17 \times 0.31}{0.42^{2}}

\mathrm{F}=\frac{3.51 \times 10^{-12}}{0.176}

\mathrm{F}=1.984 \times 10^{-11} \mathrm{N}

\text { The force of gravity exerted on the jar of pickles is } 1.984 \times 10^{-11} \mathrm{N} \text { . }

A package of mass 5 kg sits on an airless asteroid of mass 7.6 × 1020 kg and radius 8.0 × 105 m. We want to launch the package i
Effectus [21]

Answer:

s =  1.7 m

Explanation:

from the question we are given the following:

Mass of package (m) = 5 kg

mass of the asteriod (M) = 7.6 x 10^{20} kg

radius = 8 x 10^5 m

velocity of package (v) = 170 m/s

spring constant (k) = 2.8 N/m

compression (s) = ?

Assuming that no non conservative force is acting on the system here, the initial and final energies of the system will be the same. Therefore  

• Ei = Ef

• Ei = energy in the spring + gravitational potential energy of the system

• Ei = \frac{1}{2}ks^{2} + \frac{GMm}{r}

• Ef = kinetic energy of the object

• Ef = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2}  

• \frac{1}{2}ks^{2} + (-\frac{GMm}{r}) = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2}  

• s = \sqrt{\frac{m}[k}(v^{2}+\frac{2GM}{r})}

s = \sqrt{\frac{5}[2.8 x 10^5}(170^{2}+\frac{2 x 6.67 x10^{-11} x 7.6 x 10^{20}}{8 x 10^5})}

s =  1.7 m
