- Please answer all three parts! Thank you. Stanford has a linear particle accelerator (SLAC) which is 3 km long that produces electrons with a total energy of 50 GeV. These electrons lead exciting (albeit brief) lives, zooming along the accelerator before slamming into a target to produce other high-energy particles. a. Consider the viewpoint of one of the electrons. From the electron’s point of view, how long is the accelerator? Note that it is possible to answer this question without calculating the electron’s velocity. b. Let’s figure out how fast the electrons are traveling. Start by solving for β = u/c in terms of 1/γ following the trick we used in class. Use the binomial expansion if that is helpful. At what speed does a 50 GeV electron travel? c. The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN presently accelerates protons to a total energy of 6.5 TeV. Imagine a pulse of light, a 50 GeV electron, and a 6.5 TeV proton race each other along a 3 km distance. The light pulse will surely win…When a pair of particles is generated or interacts in certain ways, they are said to be "entangled". What does this mean? Measurements made on these particles are predictable. Measurements made on these particles are unpredictable. Particles will move parallel to each other in a corkscrew way. Measurements made on these particles will be correlated.A 50 g tennis ball revolves around a 2-kg bowling ball in a universe that is otherwise empty. If the orbit is circular with radius of 10 m, calculate: a) The speed of the tennis ball b) The period of its motion Take the tennis ball and the bowling ball as particles.
- In 1999, scientists discovered a new class of black holes with masses 100 to 10,000 times the mass of our sun that occupy less space than our moon. Suppose that one of these black holes has a mass of 1x10^3 suns and a radius equal to one-half the radius of our moon. What is the density of the black hole in g/cm^3? The radius of our sun is 7.0x10^5 km, and it has an average density of 1.4x10^3 kg/m^3. The diameter of the moon is 2.16x10^3 miles.Two distant galaxies are observed to have redshifts z1 = 0.05 and z2 = 0.15, and distances d1 = 220.60 Mpc and d2 = 661.75 Mpc, respectively. Assuming the motion of the galaxies is due to the Hubble flow, determine the value of the Hubble constant, H0. Show how the value of H0 can be used to estimate the age of the Universe, describing any assumptions that you make. Use the value of H0 you have obtained to estimate the age of the Universe, expressing your answer in Gyr.Please answer within 90 minutes.
