What is the speed of a proton whose kinetic energy is 3.4 kev ?

Physics
1 answer:
Andreas93 [3]3 years ago
8 0
The kinetic energy of the proton is 3.4 kev
1 kev = 1.602 × 10^-16 joules
therefore 3.4 kev is equivalent to;
3.4 ×  (1.602 ×10^-16)= 5.4468 × 10^-16 J
Kinetic energy is calculated by the formula 1/2mv² where m is the mass and v is the velocity.
Therefore V = √((2 × ( 5.4468×10^-16))/ (1.67 ×10^-27))
                    = 8.077 × 10^5 m/s

A light wave moves from diamond (n= 2.4) into water (n= 1.33) at an angleof 24°. what angle does it have in water?
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

n1 sin θ1 = n2 sin θ2      Snell's Law       (θ1 is the angle of incidence)

sin θ2 = n1 / n2 * sin θ1

sin θ2 = 2.4 / 1.33 * sin θ1

sin θ2 = 1.80 * .407 = .734

θ2 = 47.2 deg

A parallel circuit has a 125 Volt battery connected with 3 resistors. R1= 20 Ω, R2= 100 Ω, and R3= 50 Ω. Find the total current
Musya8 [376]

Answer:

10A

Explanation:

to calculate r

1/R=1/20+1/100+1/50=2/25

r=25/2=12.5

I=125/12.5=10A

A flute is designed so that it plays a frequency of 261.6 Hz, middle C, when all the holes are covered and the temperature is 20
irinina [24]

Answer:

0.655 m

13.468°C

Explanation:

v = Speed of sound at 20.0°C = 343 m/s (general value)

For one both end open we have the expression

L=\dfrac{\lambda_1}{2}\\\Rightarrow L=\dfrac{\dfrac{v}{f_1}}{2}\\\Rightarrow L=\dfrac{\dfrac{343}{261.6}}{2}\\\Rightarrow L=0.655581039755\ m

The length of the flute is 0.655 m

Beat frequency is given by

\Delta f=f_1-f_2\\\Rightarrow 3=261.6-f_2\\\Rightarrow f_2=261.6-3\\\Rightarrow f_2=258.6\ Hz

Velocity of the wave is

v=f_2\lambda_1\\\Rightarrow v=258.6\times \dfrac{343}{261.6}\\\Rightarrow v=339.066513761\ m/s

The temperature is given by

T=273(\dfrac{v}{331})^2\\\Rightarrow T=273(\dfrac{339.066513761}{331})^2\\\Rightarrow T=286.468227799\ K=286.468227799-273=13.468227799^{\circ}C

The temperature of the room is 13.468°C

Which of the following is NOT accelerating?
ivolga24 [154]
I would say the answer to your question is A Ferris wheel turning at a constant speed. The reasoning behind this answer is the fact that traveling in a constant direction at a constant speed is not accelerating. The Ferris wheel is the only option that fits this description. The last option would be incorrect due to independent causes such as speed limit changes as well as turns and stops on the highway.
