What is the speed of each neutron as they crash together? keep in mind that both neutrons are moving?

Oksanka [162]2 years ago

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, <em>the speed of neutrons is the same before and after the collision</em>. 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. <span>proton-antiproton scattering as well.

Umar has two copper pans, each containing 500cm3 of water. Pan A has a mass of 750g and pan B has a mass of 1.5kg. Which pan wil
Olin [163]

Answer:

heat required in pan B is more than pan A

Explanation:

Heat required to raise the temperature of the substance is given by the formula

Q = ms\Delta T

now we know that both pan contains same volume of water while the mass of pan is different

So here heat required to raise the temperature of water in Pan A is given as

Q_1 = (m_w s_w + m_ps_p)\delta T

Q_1 = (0.5(4186) + 0.750(s))\Delta T

Now similarly for other pan we have

Q_2 = (m_w s_w + m_ps_p)\delta T

Q_2 = (0.5(4186) + 1.50(s))\Delta T

So here by comparing the two equations we can say that heat required in pan B is more than pan A

kozerog [31]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Though fiber active cable is based on the concept of internal reflection but it is achieved by refractive index which transmit data through fast traveling pulses of light. It has a layer of glass and insulating casing called “cladding,”and this is is wrapped around the central fiber thereby causing light to continuously bounce back from the walls of the Cable.

A woman fires a rifle with barrel length of 0.5400 m. Let (0, 0) be where the 125 g bullet begins to move, and the bullet travel
dybincka [34]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,

Length of barrel =0.54m

Mass of bullet=125g=0.125kg

Force extend

F=16,000+10,000x-26,000x²

a. Work done is given as

W= ∫Fdx

W= ∫(16,000+10,000x-26,000x² dx from x=0 to x=0.54m

W=16,000x+10,000x²/2 -26,000x³/3 from x=0 to x=0.54m

W=16,000x+5,000x²- 8666.667x³ from x=0 to x=0.54m

W= 16,000(0.54) + 5000(0.54²) - 8666.667(0.54³) +0+0-0

W=8640+1458-1364.69

W=8733.31J

The workdone by the gas on the bullet is 8733.31J

b. Work done is given as

Work done when the length=1.05m

W= ∫Fdx

W= ∫(16,000+10,000x-26,000x² dx from x=0 to x=1.05m

W=16,000x+10,000x²/2 -26,000x³/3 from x=0 to x=1.05m

W=16,000x+5,000x²- 8666.667x³ from x=0 to x=1.05mm

W= 16,000(1.05) + 5000(1.05²) - 8666.667(1.05³) +0+0-0

W=16800+5512.5-10032.75

W=12,279.75J

The workdone by the gas on the bullet is 12,279.75J

A ship maneuvers to within 2.50 x 103 m of anisland's 1.80 x 103 m high mountain peak and fires aprojectile at an enemy ship 6.1
const2013 [10]

Answer:

Distance between peak height (vertically) of projectile and mountain height = (2975.2 - 1800) = 1175.2 m

Distance between where the projectile lands and ship B = (3188.8 - 3110) = 8.8 m

Explanation:

Given the velocity and angle of shot of the projectile, one can calculate the range and maximum height attained by the projectile.

H = (v₀² Sin²θ)/2g

v₀ = initial velocity of projectile = 2.50 × 10² m/s = 250 m/s

θ = 75°, g = 9.8 m/s²

H = 250² (Sin² 75)/(2 × 9.8) = 2975.2 m

Range of projectile

R = v₀² (sin2θ)/g

R = 250² (sin2×75)/9.8

R = 250² (sin 150)/9.8 = 3188.8 m

Height of mountain = 1.80 × 10³ = 1800 m

Maximum height of projectile = 2975.2 m

Distance between peak height (vertically) of projectile and mountain height = 2975.2 - 1800 = 1175.2 m

Distance of ship B from ship A = 2.5 × 10³ + 6.1 × 10² = 2500 + 610 = 3110 m

Range of projectile = 3188.8 m

Distance between where the projectile lands and ship B = 3188.8 - 3110 = 8.8 m

A 900-kg car traveling east at 15.0 m/s collides with a 750-kg car traveling north at 20.0 m/s. The cars stick together. Assume
dalvyx [7]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the car 1, m_1=900\ kg

Initial speed of car 1, u_1=15i\ m/s (east)

Mass of the car 2, m_2=750\ kg

Initial speed of car 2, u_1=20j\ m/s (north)

(b) As the cars stick together. It is a case of inelastic collision. Let V is the common speed after the collision. Using the conservation of momentum as :

m_1u_1+m_2u_2=(m_1+m_2)V

900\times 15i +750\times 20j=(900+750)V

13500i+15000j=1650V

V=(8.18i+9.09j)\ m/s

The magnitude of speed,

|V|=\sqrt{8.18^2+9.09^2}

V = 12.22 m/s

(b) Let \theta is the direction the wreckage move just after the collision. It is given by :

tan\theta=\dfrac{v_y}{v_x}

tan\theta=\dfrac{9.09}{8.18}

\theta=48.01^{\circ}

Hence, this is the required solution.
