Two atoms collide while moving in a dilute gas. The larger atom has a mass M1 = 6 Daltons and a speed v1 = 200 m/s, while the sm

aller has a mass M2 = 1 Daltons. During the collision both atoms simply bounce off each other. They do not change their speeds, but after the collision they each change their directions, bouncing in the indicated directions. (You may express your results using the mass unit "Daltons". 1 Dalton is approximately equal to the mass of a proton or neutron and is defined as one-twelfth the mass of a single neutral carbon-12 atom in its ground state.)
A. What is the magnitude of the change in the momentum, Δp1, of mass M1?
B. What is the change in the total momentum of the pair?
C. What is the magnitude of the change in the momentum Δp2, of mass M2?

Answer:

a). ΔP1=-2.4 x10^{3} \frac{D*m}{s}

b). Pp=0 F=0

c). ΔP2=2.4 x10^{3} \frac{D*m}{s}

Explanation:

Initial momentum

P_{1}=m_{1}*v_{i1}

Final momentum

P_{1f}=m_{1}*v_{f1}=-m_{1}*v_{i1}

The change of momentum m1 is:

a).

ΔP1=P_{1f}-P_{1}

ΔP1=-m_{1}*v_{i1}-m_{1}*v_{i1}

ΔP1=-2*m_{1}*v_{i1}

ΔP1=-2*6 D*200\frac{m}{s}

ΔP1=-2.4x10^{3}\frac{D*m}{s}

b).

According to the conservation of energy principle, without external forces, the momentum change for the pair equals zero

P=0

Fx=0

c).

ΔP1+ΔP2=0

ΔP2=-ΔP1

ΔP2=--2.4x10^{3}\frac{D*m}{s}

ΔP2=2.4x10^{3}\frac{D*m}{s}

How many electrons must be removed from a neutral, isolated conducting sphere to give it a positive charge of 8.0 x 10 8 C? [Q=n
inna [2205]

The new charge of the ball will amount to 8x10^8C after removing 5x10^27 electrons.

Explanation:

Initially, if the sphere is electrically neutral, its charge stands at 0C.

When an electron with a charge of (-1.6*10^-19 C) is taken away, we effectively add a positive charge, leading to:

1.6*10^-19 C as the sphere's new charge.

For a total of N electrons removed, the sphere's overall charge now becomes:

N*1.6*10^-19 C.

To calculate N when:

N*1.6*10^-19 C = 8.0x 10^8 C.

We find that N is: (8.0/1.6)x10^(8 + 19) = 5x10^27 electrons.

Astronomers determine that a certain square region in interstellar space has an area of approximately 2.4 \times 10^72.4×10 ​7 ​
Sav [2226]

Answer:

1.5 × 10³⁶ light-years

Explanation:

A particular square area in interstellar space measures roughly 2.4 × 10⁷² (light-years)². To find the area of a square, the following formula is utilized:

A = l²

where,

A represents the area of the square

l denotes the length of one side of the square

Thus, l = √A = √2.4 × 10⁷² (light-years)² = 1.5 × 10³⁶ light-years

d. at the same velocity. Explanation: I'll assume the car is also moving west since the helicopter is stated to be above it. From the perspective of someone in the car, the helicopter will appear stationary as they share the same velocity. Viewed from along the roadside, both are traveling at the same speed. Remember that velocity is a vector quantity, which includes direction, while speed measures the rate at which an object covers distance without direction. Hence, velocity is the appropriate term here.
