Physicists often measure the momentum of subatomic particles moving near the speed of light in units of MeV/c, where c is the sp

eed of light, and 1 MeV = 1.6 ✕ 10−13 kg · m2/s2. Based on this, what are the units of momentum for a high-speed subatomic particle in terms of fundamental SI units?

Answer:

kg m/s

Explanation:

e = Charge = C

V = Voltage = \dfrac{N}{C}m

c = Speed of light = m/s

Momentum is given by

\dfrac{MeV}{c}=\dfrac{e\times V}{c}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{MeV}{c}=\dfrac{C\times \dfrac{N}{C}\times m}{m/s}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{MeV}{c}=Ns\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{MeV}{c}=kg\times \dfrac{m}{s}\times s\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{MeV}{c}=kg\cdot m/s

The unit of MeV/c in SI fundamental units is kg m/s

Illusion [34]

Answer:

Testing

Explanation:

Ancient Greek philosophers lived with the ideology to simply contemplate life. This means that their whole life revolved around thinking and questioning everything. This would include creative thinking, because they would sometimes come up with theories which require creativeness. They would often debate with their friends as to why their theory should be accepted or what their opinions were on the matter. More often than not, they argued a lot, and many philosophers went against some powerful people in the community and some were even sentenced to death.

The main process they didn't/couldn't do was the testing. They could never test certain theories because they did not have the means to.

A person standing for a long time gets tired when he does not appear to do any work .why?​
Keith_Richards [23]

Explanation:

A person standing still for a long time feels tired because the force of gravity acts on our body and puts stress on our muscles. so our muscles need energy to do work and keep body balanced and help to stand upright.

A particle moving in the x direction is being acted upon by a net force F(x)=Cx2, for some constant C. The particle moves from x
elixir [45]

Answer:

Change in kinetic energy is ( 26CL³)/3

Explanation:

Given :

Net force applied, F(x) = Cx²  ....(1)

Displacement of the particle from xi = L to xf = 3L.

The work-energy theorem states that change in kinetic energy of the particle is equal to the net amount of work is done to displace the particle.

That is,

ΔK = W = ∫F·dx

Substitute equation (1) in the above equation.

ΔK =  ∫Cx²dx

The limit of integration from xi = L to xf = 3L, so

\Delta K=\frac{C}{3}(x_{f} ^{3} - x_{i} ^{3})

Substitute the values of xi and xf in the above equation.

\Delta K=\frac{C}{3}((3L) ^{3} - L ^{3})

\Delta K=\frac{C}{3}\times26L^{3}

The capacitors in each circuit are fully charged before the switch is closed. Rank, from longest to shortest, the length of time
8_murik_8 [283]

The concept used in this is circuit analysis using the simplification of resistors and capacitors.

Explanation:

The time constant for each of the circuits in figure A, B, C, D and E. Therefore, rank the length of time the bulbs stay lit from longest to shortest by using the value of time constant for each circuit. The rank of the time constant of the circuit is C > A = E > B > DC  > A = E > B > D.

Capacitance is the central concept in electrostatics and constructed devices called capacitors are essential elements of electronic circuits.

If more charge is placed on the conductor the voltage increases proportionately. The ratio of the charge to the voltage is called the capacitance C of the conductor C= q/v.

The resistance increases if you add resistors in series and decreases if you add them in parallel. on the other hand the capacitors increases if it is added parallel and decreases if added in series. hence the circuit longest time constant takes longest time to discharge.

erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

C. a few days

Explanation:

The evidence that we will have to investigate is the gunshot residue on the body of the suspect. When a person fires a gun there will be a deposition of material from the components of the chemicals present in the gun. This deposit is called gunshot residue and consists of particles of the propellant or explosive primer.

Experimentation has shown that the period of time that is person will test possible for gunshot residue is 5.27 days.
