To Find: The pair production partner for positron.
(a)
Answer to Problem 36PP
Electron
Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
Pair production is the making of a subatomic molecule and its antiparticle from the neutral boson. Models incorporate making proton and an antiproton, a muon and an anti-muon and an electron and a positron.
Pair production partner can be defined as the anti − particle of a particle, where antiparticle has same mass and equal and opposite charge as the particle has
The particle that has same mass as the positron and possess the charge of same magnitude but opposite in nature is electron.
Conclusion:
Therefore, the pair production partner for positron is electron.
(b)
To Find: The pair production partner for neutron.
(b)
Answer to Problem 36PP
Anti-neutron
Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
Pair production is the making of a subatomic molecule and its antiparticle from the neutral boson. Models incorporate making proton and an antiproton, a muon and an anti-muon and an electron and a positron.
Pair production partner can be defined as the anti − particle of a particle, where antiparticle has same mass and equal and opposite charge as the particle has
As it is known that neutron does not possess any charge therefore, its anti-particle has charge on baryons opposite to that of a neutron.
Conclusion:
Therefore, the pair production partner for neutron is anti-neutron.

Answer to Problem 36PP
Anti-muon
Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
Pair production is the making of a subatomic molecule and its antiparticle from the neutral boson. Models incorporate making proton and an antiproton, a muon and an anti-muon and an electron and a positron.
Pair production partner can be defined as the anti − particle of a particle, where antiparticle has same mass and equal and opposite charge as the particle has
Muon mass is larger than that of electron but it possesses the same charge as electron.
Antiparticle for the muon is anti-muon.
Conclusion:
Therefore, the pair production partner for muon is anti-muon.

Interplanetary Navigation. The most efficient way to send a spacecraft from the earth to another planet is by using a Hohmann transfer orbit (Fig. P13.87). If the orbits of the departure and destination planets are circular, the Hohmann transfer orbit is an elliptical orbit whose perihelion and aphelion are tangent to the orbits of the two planets. The rockets are fired briefly at the depar- ture planet to put the spacecraft into the transfer orbit; the spacecraft then coasts until it reaches the destination planet. The rockets are then fired again to put the spacecraft into the same orbit about the sun as the destination planet. (a) For a flight from earth to Mars, in what direction must the rockets be fired at the earth and at Mars: in the direction of motion, or opposite the direction of motion? What about for a flight from Mars to the earth? (b) How long does a one- way trip from the the earth to Mars take, between the firings of the rockets? (c) To reach Mars from the…arrow_forward
