A 90. 0-kg ice hockey player hits a 0. 150-kg puck, giving the puck a velocity of 45. 0 m/s. If both are initially at rest and i

f the ice is frictionless, how far does the player recoil in the time it takes the puck to reach the goal 15. 0 m away?.

The distance traveled by the hockey player is 0.025 m.

<h3>The principle of conservation of linear momentum;</h3>
  • The principle of conservation of linear momentum states that, the total momentum of an isolated system is always conserved.

The final velocity of the hockey play is calculated by applying the principle of conservation of linear momentum;

m_1v_1 = m_2 v_2\\\\v_1 = \frac{m_2 v_2}{m_1} \\\\v_1 = \frac{0.150 \times 45}{90} \\\\v_1 = 0.075 \ m/s

The time taken for the puck to reach 15 m is calculated as follows;

t = \frac{d}{v} \\\\t = \frac{15\ m}{45 \ m/s} \\\\t = 0.33 \ s

The distance traveled by the hockey player at the calculated time is;

d = vt\\\\d = 0.075 \ m/s \ \times 0.33 \ s\\\\d = 0.025 \ m

A 0.500-nm x-ray photon is deected through 134 in a Compton scattering event. At what angle (with respect to the incident beam)
natita [175]

Answer:

The angle of recoil electron with respect to incident beam of photon is 22.90°.

Explanation:

Compton Scattering is the process of scattering of X-rays by a charge particle like electron.

The angle of the recoiling electron with respect to the incident beam is determine by the relation :

\cot\phi = (1+\frac{hf}{m_{e}c^{2}  })\tan\frac{\theta }{2}      ....(1)

Here ∅ is angle of recoil electron, θ is the scattered angle, h is Planck's constant, m_{e} is mass of electron, c is speed of light and f is the frequency of the x-ray photon.

We know that, f = c/λ      ......(2)

Here λ is wavelength of x-ray photon.

Rearrange equation (1) with the help of equation (1) in terms of  λ .

\cot\phi = (1+\frac{h}{m_{e}c\lambda  })\tan\frac{\theta }{2}

Substitute 6.6 x 10⁻³⁴ m² kg s⁻¹ for h, 9.1 x 10⁻³¹ kg for m_{e}, 3 x 10⁸ m/s for c, 0.500 x 10⁻⁹ m for λ  and 134° for θ in the above equation.

\cot\phi = (1+\frac{6.6\times10^{-34} }{9.1\times10^{-31}\times3\times10^{8}\times0.5\times10^{-9}  })\tan\frac{134 }{2}

\cot\phi=2.37

\phi = 22.90°

Arisa [49]
The first law states that “objects at rest and objects in motion remain in motion in a straight line unless acted upon by an unbalanced force”. Keeping the ice smooth will make sure there is not friction, friction would slow the puck down
