When a high-energy proton or pion traveling near the speed of light collides with a nucleus, it may travel 2.5 x 10-15 m before

Tasya [4]

Explanation:

It is given that,

When a high-energy proton or pion traveling near the speed of light collides with a nucleus, $d=2.5\times 10^{-15}\ m$

Speed of light, $c=3\times 10^{8}\ m\s$

Let t is the time interval required for the strong interaction to occur. The speed is given by :

$c=\dfrac{d}{t}$

$t=\dfrac{d}{c}$

$t=\dfrac{2.5\times 10^{-15}\ m}{3\times 10^{8}\ m/s}$

$t=8.33\times 10^{-24}\ s$

So, the time interval required for the strong interaction to occur is $8.33\times 10^{-24}\ s$ . Hence, this is the required solution.

Owen and Dina are at rest in frame S' , which is moving at 0.600 c with respect to frame S . They play a game of catch while Ed

Taya2010 [7]

The speed of the ball with respect to Dina is 0.800c.

A frame of reference is a set of reference points—geometric points whose positions are known mathematically and physically—that define the origin, orientation, and scale of an abstract coordinate system.

If a body does not continuously adjust its position in relation to its environment throughout the course of time, it is said to be at rest.

In frame S', Dina and Owen are at rest.

The speed of the ball with respect to Owen, u =0.800c

The speed of the fram S' with respect to frame S, v = 0.600c

Distance between Dina and Owen, L(p) = 1.8 × 10¹² m

Speed of light, c = 3 × 10⁸ m/s

Therefore, the speed of the ball according to Dina is 0.800c. As Dina and Owen are in the same frame.

Two charges, X and Y, are placed along the x-axis. Charge X is +18 nC and is placed at x = 0. Charge Y is placed at a location o

Helen [10]

Answer:

Charge Z can be placed at x = -2.7 m or at x = 0.27 m.

Explanation:

The Coulomb force between two charges, $Q_1$ and $Q_2$ , separated by a distance, $d$ , is given

$F = k\dfrac{Q_1Q_2}{r^2}$

k is a constant.

For the charge Z to be at equilibrium, the force exerted on it by charge X must be equal and opposite to the force exerted on it by charge Y.

It is to be placed along the x-axis. Hence, it is on the same line as charges X and Y.

Let the charge on Z be Q. It is positive.

Let the distance from charge X be x m. Then the distance from charge Y will be (0.60 - x) m.

Force due to charge X

$F_X = k\dfrac{18Q}{x^2}$

Force due to charge Y

$F_Y = k\dfrac{-27Q}{(0.60-x)^2}$

Since both forces are equal and opposite,

$F_X = -F_Y$

$k\dfrac{18Q}{x^2} = -k\dfrac{-27Q}{(0.60-x)^2}$

$\dfrac{2}{x^2} = \dfrac{3}{(0.60-x)^2}$

$2(0.60-x)^2 = 3x^2$

$2(0.36-1.20x+x^2) = 3x^2$

$0.72-2.40x+2x^2 = 3x^2$

$x^2+2.40x-0.72 = 0$

Applying the quadratic formula,

$x = \dfrac{-2.40\pm\sqrt{2.40^2 - (4)(1)(-0.72)}}{2} = \dfrac{-2.40\pm\sqrt{8.64}}{2}$

$x = -2.7$ or $x = 0.27$

Charge Z can be placed at x = -2.7 m or at x = 0.27 m
