The spontaneous decay of a heavy atomic nucleus of mass M = 16.5 ? 10?27 kg that is initially at rest produces three particles. The first particle, with mass m1 = 6.64 ? 10?27 kg, is ejected in the positive x direction with a speed of 1.70 ? 107 m/s. The second particle, with mass m2 = 3.40 ? 10?27 kg, is ejected in the negative y direction with a speed of 2.00 ? 107 m/s. (a) What is the...
10.9 A radioactive nucleus (mass = 1.70*10-26 kg) is at rest. It suddenly decays (explodes) into three pieces. One piece has mass mi = 5.00*10-27 kg and is found to be moving along the +y axis with a speed of 6.00* 10 m/s. A second piece with mass m2 = 8.40*10-27 kg moves along the +x axis with a speed of 4.00* 10° m/s. Assuming the mass is held constant, find the velocity of the third and final piece that...
Alpha particles which have a charge +2e and mass 6.64 x 10-27 kg are initially at rest and are fired directly at a stationary platinum nucleus (charge +78e) at a speed of 2.75 x 10 m/s. Determine the distance of closest approach (in fm) before the alpha particle reverses direction. Assume the platinum nucleus remains stationary. Assume the alpha particles are initially very far from a stationary platinum nucleus. fm
- An unstable particle with a mass equal to 3.34 ✕ 10−27 kg is initially at rest. The particle decays into two fragments that fly off with velocities of 0.981c and −0.861c, respectively. Find the masses of the fragments. (Hint: Conserve both mass–energy and momentum.) m(0.981c) = kg m(-0.861c) = kg - An unstable particle at rest breaks up into two fragments of unequal mass. The mass of the lighter fragment is equal to 2.30 ✕ 10−28 kg and that...
Beryllium-8 is an unstable isotope and decays into two α particles, which are helium nuclei with mass 6.68×10−27kg. This decay process releases 1.5×10−14J of energy. For this problem, let's assume that the mass of the Beryllium-8 nucleus is just twice the mass of an α particle and that all the energy released in the decay becomes kinetic energy of the α particles. If the Beryllium-8 nucleus is moving in the positive x-direction with a speed of 1.0×106 m/s when it...
