A proton’s speed as it passes point A is 50,000 m/s. It follows the trajectory shown in FIGURE P25.43. What is the proton’s speed at point B? A proton’s speed as it passes point A is 50,000 m/s. It follows the trajectory shown in FIGURE P25.43. What is the proton’s speed at point B?

Short Answer

Expert verified

The value of proton’s speed at the point B is1.01×10-5m/s

Step by step solution

01

Speed of photon


The potential energy and kinetic energy at the A point

KinecticenergyisKA=12mv2ApotentialenergyisUA=eVA

The potential energy and kinetic energy at the B point

KinecticenergyisKB=12mv2BpotentialenergyisUB=eVB

eVA+12mv2A=eVB+12mv2BvB=v2A+2×eVA-VBmvA=5000m/se=1.6×10-19CVA=30VVB=-10VvB=1.01×105m/s

02

Calculation 

On the basis of conservation theory

KA+UA=KB+UB

Applying all data

role="math" localid="1648296227023" VB=VA2+2e(VA-VB)m=(50000m/s)2+2(1.6×10-19C)(30V-(-10V))(1.67×10-27kg)=1.008×105m/s

Therefore, the speed of the proton is 1.01×105m/s

One form of nuclear radiation, beta decay, occurs when a neutron changes into a proton, an electron, and a neutral particle called a neutrino: n→p++e-+vwhere nis the symbol for a neutrino. When this change happens to a neutron within the nucleus of an atom, the proton remains behind in the nucleus while the electron and neutrino are ejected from the nucleus. The ejected electron is called a beta particle. One nucleus that exhibits beta decay is the isotope of hydrogen 3H, called tritium, whose nucleus consists of one proton (making it hydrogen) and two neutrons (giving tritium an atomic mass m=3u). Tritium is radioactive, and it decays to helium: H3→H3e+e-+n

a. Is charge conserved in the beta decay process? Explain.

b. Why is the final product a helium atom? Explain.

c. The nuclei of both H3andH3e have radii of 1.5×10-15m. With what minimum speed must the electron be ejected if it is to escape from the nucleus and not fall back?

Proton moves along the x-axis where some arrangement of charges has produced the potential vx=v0sin(2π/λ), where and l = 1.0 mm.

a. What minimum speed must the proton have at x = 0 to move down the axis without being reflected?

b. What is the maximum speed reached by a proton that at x = 0

A -10.0 nC point charge and a +20.0 nC point charge are 15.0 cm apart on the x-axis. a. What is the electric potential at the point on the x-axis where the electric field is zero? b. What is the magnitude of the electric field at the point on the x-axis, between the charges, where the electric potential is zero?

Two protons are launched with the same speed from point 1 inside the parallel-plate capacitor of FIGURE Q25.4. Points 2 and 3 are the same distance from the negative plate.

a. Is ΔU1→2, the change in potential energy along the path 1→2, larger than, smaller than, or equal to ΔU1→3?

b. Is the proton's speed v2at point 2 larger than, smaller than, or equal to v3? Explain.

FIGURE P25.69 shows a thin rod of length L and charge Q. Find an expression for the electric potential a distance x away from the center of the rod on the axis of the rod.
