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

742/2*pi

f=118.09Hz

Explanation:

A fellow student of mathematical bent tells you that the wave function of a traveling wave on a thin rope is y(x,t)=2.30mmcos[(6.98rad/m)x+(742rad/s)t]. Being more practical-minded, you measure the rope to have a length of 1.35 m and a mass of 3.38 grams. Assume that the ends of the rope are held fixed and that there is both this traveling wave and the reflected wave traveling in the opposite direction.

A) What is the wavefunction y(x,t) for the standing wave that is produced?

B) In which harmonic is the standing wave oscillating?

C) What is the frequency of the fundamental oscillation?

a. y(x,t)= 2.05 mm cos[( 6.98 rad/m)x + (744 rad/s).

b. lambda=2L/n

when comparing the wave equation with the general wave equation , we get the wavelength to be

2*pi*x/lambda=6.98x

lambda=0.9m

we use the equation

lambda=2L/n

n=number of harmonics

L=length of string

0.9=2(1.35)/n

n=2.7/0.9

n=3

third harmonic

c. to calculate frequency , we compare with general wave equation

y(x,t)=Acos(kx+ωt)

from ωt=742t

ω=742

ω=2*pi*f

742/2*pi

f=118.09Hz

How many slices of bread did each climber have to eat to compensate for the increase of the gravitational potential energy of th
N76 [4]

Answer:

So No of slices to be consumed by each person = n = 65

Explanation:

Energy released by one slice = E1

E1=10^6\ J

h = 8850 m ; m = 79 kg ,η= 10.5%

We know that potential energy given as

u = m g h

u = 79 x 9.81 x 8850

u=6.8\times 10^6\ J

we know from the defination of efficiency that,  η= E(out)/E(in)

Now amount of PE has to be compensated, In our case, E(out) =u

0.105=\dfrac{E(out)}{E(in)}

0.105=\dfrac{6.8\times 10^6}{E(in)}

E(in)=64.76\times 10^6\ J

Let n be the number of bread slices to be consumed.

n = E(in)/E1

n=\dfrac{64.76\times 10^6}{10^6}

n=64.76

So No of slices to be consumed by each person = n = 65

A ski lift is used to transport people from the base of a hill to the top. If the lift leaves the base at a velocity of 15.5 m/s
Neko [114]
This can be calculated with the law of conservation of energy. The sky lift is starting with the speed v= 15.5 m/s and all of it's kinetic energy Ek is transformed to potential energy Ep so the energies have to be equal: Ep=Ek.
Since Ek=(1/2)*m*v² where m is mass and v is the speed, Ep=m*g*h, where m is mass, g= 9.81 m/s² and h is height. Now:

Ek=Ep 

(1/2)*m*v²=m*g*h, masses cancel out,

(1/2)*v²=g*h, divide by g to get the height,

(1/2*g)*v²=h and now plug in the numbers:

h=12.245 m. Height of the hill rounded to the nearest tenth is h=12.25 m

3. In 1989, Michel Menin of France walked on a tightrope suspended under a
Tamiku [17]

Answer: 80m

Explanation:

Distance of balloon to the ground is 3150m

Let the distance of Menin's pocket to the ground be x

Let the distance between Menin's pocket to the balloon be y

Hence, x=3150-y------1

Using the equation of motion,

V^2= U^s + 2gs--------2

U= initial speed is 0m/s

g is replaced with a since the acceleration is under gravity (g) and not straight line (a), hence g is taken as 10m/s

40m/s is contant since U (the coin is at rest is 0) hence V =40m/s

Slotting our values into equation 2

40^2= 0^2 + 2 * 10* (3150-y)

1600 = 0 + 63000 - 20y

1600 - 63000 = - 20y

-61400 = - 20y minus cancel out minus on both sides of the equation

61400 = 20y

Hence y = 61400/20

3070m

Hence, recall equation 1

x = 3150 - 3070

80m

I hope this solve the problem.
