Evaluate the rest energy (in MeV) for the proton (m,= 1.673 x 10-27 kg) and the deuteron (ma= 3.344 × 102" kg). Next, assume y = 2 for either particle. What is the particle velocity (m/sec)? What are the "kinetic energies" (the total energy minus the rest energy) for both particles in MeV. Repeat for y = 10.

E FOR Ⓒ. T Suppose a cosmic ray colliding with a nucleus in the Earth's upper atmosphere produces a muon that has a velocity v=0.900c. The muon then travels at constant velocity and lives 1.52 us as measured in the muon's frame of reference. (You can imagine this as the muon's internal clock. See the figure below. Enter your answers to at least four significant figures. Assume the speed of light is 2.998 x 108 m/s.) At (a) How long (in us) would the muon have lived as observed on the Earth if its velocity was 0.0790c? us (b) How far (in m) would it have traveled as observed on the Earth? m 70°F Mostly cloudy (c) What distance (in m) is this in the muon's frame?

How many particles are present in a closed container if the energy it contains is 97940.99J, and the diatomic oxygen gas is moving at a velocity of 58.55m/s? Use only the whole number for the value of atomic mass unit. Express your answer in proper scientific notation. USE GRESA AND 9.81 m/s squared for the gravity. Two decimals only
Before we introduced the Friedmann equation, we gained some intuition with a Newtonian example of an expanding sphere of uniform density that feels its own gravity. Suppose the sphere is currently static; it has expanded to its maximum size and is about to recollapse. Given that its total energy per mass is U, and its density is currently \rhoρ, what is its current size? Write your answer in meters, using one decimal place. Values: U = -82 J/kg \rhoρ = 545 x 105 kg/m3 Please show work as I have trouble following along
Imagine an alien spaceship and a human-controlled ship moving directly toward each other. An observer on Earth measures the both of their speeds as 0.660c with respect to the Earth. What is the speed of the alien ship with respect to the human ship? That is, what is the speed of the alien ship as measured by a passenger in the human ship? Express your answer as a fraction of the speed of light, c. VAH
