An proton-antiproton pair is produced by a 2.20 × 10 3 MeV photon. What is the kinetic energy of the antiproton if the kinetic e
timama [110]

Answer:

K = 80.75 MeV    

Explanation:

To calculate the kinetic energy of the antiproton we need to use conservation of energy:

E_{ph} = E_{p} + E_{ap} = E_{0p} + K_{p} + E_{0ap} + K_{ap} = m_{0p}c^{2} + K_{p} + m_{0ap}c^{2} + K_{ap}

<em>where E_{ph}: is the photon energy, E_{0p} and E_{0ap}: are the rest energies of the proton and the antiproton, respectively, equals to m₀c², K_{p} and K_{ap}: are the kinetic energies of the proton and the antiproton, respectively, c: speed of light, and m₀: rest mass.</em>        

Therefore the kinetic energy of the antiproton is:    

K_{ap} = E_{ph} - m_{0p}c^{2} - K_{p} - m_{0ap}c^{2}

<u>The proton mass is equal to the antiproton mass, so</u>:

K_{ap} = E_{ph} - 2m_{0p}c^{2} - K_{p}  

K_{ap} = 2.20 \cdot 10^{3}MeV - 2(1.67 \cdot 10^{-27}kg)(3\cdot 10^{8} \frac {m}{s})^{2} - 242.85MeV

K_{ap} = 2.20 \cdot 10^{3}MeV - 2(1.67 \cdot 10^{-27}kg)(3\cdot 10^{8} \frac {m}{s})^{2}(\frac{1eV}{1.602 \cdot 10^{-19}J})(\frac{1 MeV}{10^{6}eV}) - 242.85MeV

K_{ap} = 80.75 MeV              

Hence, the kinetic energy of the antiproton is 80.75 MeV.

I hope it helps you!

A tire sits atop a ramp. When the tire is released, it rolls down the ramp. At the ramp's bottom, the speeding tire knocks down
k0ka [10]

Answer:

mechanical energy

Explanation:

Mechanical energy is the combination of both potential energy and kinetic

Mechanical energy can be divided as

1)kinetic energy, this energy vis regarded as the energy of motion

2) potential energy which is the stored energy of position.

Mechanical energy reffered to as

motion energy this energy is responsible for the movement of an object based on its position as well as motion.

Mechanical energy= U + K

Where U= potential energy

K= Kinectic energy

As the tire is sitting on top of a ramp, it posses "potential energy" as it is released and rolls down the ramp the potential is converted to Kinectic energy
