There are N = 2400 electrons moving in one dimension and they meet at the origin of
coordinates with a potential step of height Vo = 2,6eV. If each of the electrons have energy
E = 3,1eV. Find the quantity of electrons that pass to the other region and the kinetic
energy that they would carry.
The density of a star measured from the center of a star is equal to Z. a is constant. find the gravitational potential and g as a function of r.
In this problem, we will try to understand why chemical reactions cannot power the Sun, but nuclear reactions can. The energy scale of chemical reactions is a few eV, where eV is a unit of energy called an electron volt. 1 eV = 1.602 x 10-19 J. A typical chemical reaction involves an energy change of ~0.1 to 10 eV. In contrast, a nuclear reaction typically involves a change in energy of order a few MeV (mega electron volts; a factor of a million larger).
Suppose that the Sun has a constant luminosity throughout its life, equal to its current luminosity of L⊙=3.827×1026J/s . Suppose also that the Sun is made entirely of hydrogen (or just protons, since the mass of the electron is about 2000 times smaller and is negligible in comparison). If every pair of two protons in the Sun undergo a one-time chemical reaction that nets ~1 eV of energy, how long would it take (in years) to expend all the available chemical energy?

- Let's try a few more examples that relate power and energy. A certain high-efficiency LED light bulb has a power output of 9.20 W. That is, 9.20 J of electric energy is converted to electromagnetic (light) energy and radiated away every second. How much energy is output by the lightbulb if it is left on for a total time of 7.50 hours? In this case, we're relating power to energy change, so we simply use the relationship E t P = Here, instead of work W, we use in the equation E, which is the amount of energy output or converted in the amount of time t. From this, what do we find the total energy output in joules to be? 33120 X x Solve the above equation for the energy E in terms of power P and time t. Remember that 1 W = 1 J/s, so to find the energy in joules, convert the time to seconds first. There are 60 minutes in one hour and 60 seconds in one minute.

Using two Hohmann transfers, what total Δv is required to move the satellite from the initial orbit to the higher circular at the same inclination? Include a sketch showing the initial orbit, the transfer orbit and the final orbit. Include the location(s) of the burn(s). b.

- A cyclotron is a machine that can be used to accelerate charged particles to achieve large kinetic energies. The resulting beams of highly energetic particles then can be used for many medical applications, including Proton Therapy (a more precise form of "radiation" used in the treatment of some cancers). A description of the cyclotron can be found in section 19.3 of the text. If a proton (of mass 1.673x10-27kg) is accelerated to its maximum velocity inside a dee with radius 1.32cm (this is the radius you would use for the "r" term in the centripetal acceleration), and if the magnetic field has a magnitude of 1.84x10-2T, what is the resulting velocity of the proton in units of km/s (kilometer per second)?arrow_forwardAsap within 20 minutesarrow_forwardThe IKAROS spacecraft, launched in 2010, was designed to test the feasibility of solar sails for spacecraft propulsion. These large, ultralight sails are pushed on by the force of light from the sun, so the spacecraft doesn't need to carry any fuel. The force on IKAROS's sails was measured to be 1.12 mNmN. If this were the only force acting on the 290 kg spacecraft, by how much would its speed increase after 7.0 months of flight? Assume there are 30 days in each month.arrow_forward
