Answer:

The speed, as they crash together, is the same than before the crash, but with opposite directions. In this context, we recur to the collision theory in physics, which says that the amount of movement of each particle before the collision is the same than after the collision, due to the conservation of the amount of movement, which can be described like this: $\Delta p=0$ . This expression means that in a isolated environment (which is present in a neutron's collision), the total amount of movement doesn't change.

Therefore, the speed of neutrons is the same before and after the collision. Specifically the number of this speed depends on the experiment.

This involves shooting electrons (from an accelerator) at a target or protons. This technique provided evidence for the existence of quarks. proton-antiproton scattering as well.

Consider a double-slit with a distance between the slits of 0.04 mm and slit width of 0.01 mm. Suppose the screen is a distance

scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

The distance between the places where the intensity is zero due to the double slit effect is 15 mm.

Explanation:

Given that,

Distance between the slits = 0.04 mm

Width = 0.01 mm

Distance between the slits and screen = 1 m

Wavelength = 600 nm

We need to calculate the distance between the places where the intensity is zero due to the double slit effect

For constructive fringe

First minima from center

$x_{1}=\dfrac{\lambda D}{2d}$

Second minima from center

$x_{2}=\dfrac{3\lambda D}{2d}$

The distance between the places where the intensity is zero due to the double slit effect

$\Delta x_{d}=x_{2}-x_{1}$

$\Delta x_{d}=\dfrac{3\lambda D}{2d}-\dfrac{\lambda D}{2d}$

$\Delta x_{d}=\dfrac{\lambda D}{d}$

Put the value into the formula

$\Delta x_{d}=\dfrac{600\times10^{-9}\times1}{0.04\times10^{-3}}$

$\Delta x_{d}=0.015 =15\times10^{-3}\ m$

$\Delta x_{d}=15\ mm$

Hence, The distance between the places where the intensity is zero due to the double slit effect is 15 mm.

Paintball guns were originally developed to mark trees for logging. A forester aims his gun directly at a knothole in a tree tha

emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

The distance between knothole and the paint ball is 0.483 m.

Explanation:

Given that,

Height = 4.0 m

Distance = 15 m

Speed = 50 m/s

The angle at which the forester aims his gun are,

$\tan\theta=\dfrac{4}{15}$

$\tan\theta=0.266$

$\cos\theta=\dfrac{15}{\sqrt{15^2+4^2}}$

$\cos\theta=0.966$

Using the equation of motion of the trajectory

The horizontal displacement of the paint ball is

$x=(u\cos\theta)t$

$t=\dfrac{x}{u\cos\theta}$

Using the equation of motion of the trajectory

The vertical displacement of the paint ball is

$y=u\sin\theta(t)-\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2$

$y=u\sin\theta(\dfrac{x}{u\cos\theta})-\dfrac{1}{2}g(\dfrac{x}{u\cos\theta})^2$

$y=x\tan\theta-\dfrac{gx^3}{2u^2(\cos\theta)^2}$

Put the value into the formula

$y=(15\times0.266)-(\dfrac{9.8\times(15)^2}{2\times(50)^2\times(0.966)^2})$

$y=3.517\ m$

We need to calculate the distance between knothole and the paint ball

$d=h-y$

$d=4-3.517$

$d=0.483\ m$

Hence, The distance between knothole and the paint ball is 0.483 m.

A person wants to lose weight by "pumping iron". The person lifts an 80 kg weight 1 meter. How many times must this weight be li

statuscvo [17]

Answer:

37357 sec

or 622 min

or 10.4 hrs

Explanation:

GIVEN DATA:

Lifting weight 80 kg

1 cal = 4184 J

from information given in question we have

one lb fat consist of 3500 calories = 3500 x 4184 J

= 14.644 x 10^6 J

Energy burns in 1 lift = m g h

= 80 x 9.8 x 1 = 784 J

lifts required $= \frac{(14.644 x 10^6)}{784}$

= 18679

from the question,

1 lift in 2 sec.

so, total time = 18679 x 2 = 37357 sec

or 622 min

or 10.4 hrs

Where is the steering nozzle located on a pwc?

Dvinal [7]

At the rear.

PWC stands for personal watercraft, and it is a small powerboat. The main components of a PWC are the hull (body of the boat), deck (surface where people walk/stand), throttle (controls speed), steering nozzle and water intake.
