- The Tevatron was a large particle accelerator that would collide beams ofprotons and anti-protons to see what would come out of the collisions.a) Let’s assume that each particle (in both beams) was accelerated to a total energy of100 GeV. What is the speed of the protons (relative to the speed of light) if you assumethe mass of the proton is equal to 1 GeV/c^2? Write your answer in terms of the speed oflight—keep it as a decimal times “c”. You will need several decimal places.b) Suppose that you now accelerate each particle to a speed of 0.9c. Since they are movingin opposite directions, what is the speed that one would measure for the speed of the otherparticle? Just give the absolute value of this speed. Don’t worry about the sign.c) Given your answer in part b, what is the energy of that one particle would measure forthe other particle?If ever the human race would need to leave Earth, the Trappist-1 system might make a good destination – the star there has seven temperate terrestrial planets, a few of which are close to Earth’s size and mass. It’s 39.6 light years away, though, so it could take a long time to get there. (a) If the spaceship had a speed of 0.95c, how long would the journey take from the Earth’s reference frame? (b) How long would the journey be for the passengers on the spaceship?An experimenter has studied the decay of a K° particle in which it emits a 7° at 0.8c. One such K° particle passes the experimenter at 0.5c and decays, emitting a 7° in the original direction of motion. In the experimenter's frame, the speed of the T° is measured to be O 1.3c. O between c and 1.3c. between .5c and .8c. O between .8c and c..
- A spaceship departs from a space station and achieves a constant speed of 0.80cwith respect to thes tation, moving directly away from it. The spaceship fires a torpedo forward (in the same direction). The torpedo’s speed with respect to the spaceship is 0.40c. How fast is the torpedo moving with respect to the station?I am so confused on relative length and proper length. is it 7.07 or 70.7?The wow expert Hand written solution is not allowed.
- At relativistic speeds near that of light, the half-life of an unstable particle moving at high speed is longer than when it is at rest. an object is longer when moving than when it is stationary. O light emitted by a moving source moves at the same speed with the same frequency. effects precede causes in some inertial frames. lengths and times only appear different and have no effect on other measurable quantities.An electron-positron collider creates muons through the reaction et +e →µ* +µ. In the center-of-momentum frame, what is the minimum speed of the electron for this reaction to occur, in terms of the masses me and mu of the electron and muon? Oc(1-) 2m 7ne - my O This process can occur at any speed.When pions are brought to rest their lifetime is 1.77´10-8 s. A beam of pions is produced in an accelerator and moves at a speed of 0.99c relative to the laboratory. After moving 39 m as measured in the la, half the pions have decayed. a) from the viewpoint of an observer in the lab frame and b) from an observer at rest in the frame of the moving pions that the two numerical results given in the problem for the half-life of the pions are consistent.
