- Assume that a room at sea level is filled with a gas of nitrogen molecules N2 in thermal equilibrium at -10.0 °C (negative ten degrees Celsius). There are 7 protons and 7 neutrons in the nucleus of a nitrogen atom N. You may take the masses of the proton and the neutron to be the same, and ignore the mass of the electrons. 1 atm=1.01x105 N/m² , h=1.05x10-34 J-s , mp=1.67x10-27 kg, kB = 1.38x10-23 J/K . a) What is the (particle) number density n according to the ideal gas law? b) Compare the number density n with the quantum concentration ng at the same temperature. c) Is the gas in the classical or quantum regime?arrow_forwardThe number of silicon atoms per m3 is 5 × 1028.

Here u is the reduced mass of the atom, given by u = m, m,/ (m, + m2), where m is the mass of the electron and m, is the mass of the nucleus; k, is the Coulomb constant; and q and 2 are the charges of the electron and the nucleus, respec- tively.

- In symmetric fission, the nucleus of uranium (238U) splits into two nuclei of palladium (119Pd). The uranium nucleus is spherical with a radius of 7.4×10−15m. Assume that the two palladium nuclei adopt a spherical shape immediately after fission; at this instant, the configuration is as shown in the figure attached.

- [#168] Such stuff as dreams are made of. How much of you is not vacuum? Outside of the nucleus, an atom contains mostly empty space. Estimate the fraction of the volume of an atom that is occupied by the nucleus. Assume that a typical atom has a linear dimension of about 0.1 nm and that a typical nuclear dimension is about 1 fm. (Note that this problem introduces some new prefixes: n is nano or 10^{-9}10−9, p is pico or 10^{-12}10−12, f is femto or 10^{-15}10−15). Give your answer as a power of ten. For example, enter: 10^18, or 10^-3 (for 10^{18}1018 or 10^{-3}10−3).arrow_forwardThe diameter of an atom is 1.0×10−10 m and the diameter of its nucleus is 1.0×10−14 m .

Tragically, the attempt resulted in the death of a child on the ground, as the plane slid far enough beyond the runway to leave airport property and collide with a car (in which the child was a passenger) on the road beyond. Both the analysis and prevention of accidents such as this rely on the kinematics of one-dimensional motion. In this problem we will examine how the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) arrived at the conclusion that "the probable cause of a fatal runway overrun...was the pilots' failure to use available reverse thrust in a timely manner to safely slow or stop the airplane after landing." (NTSB press release SB-07-48). The NTSB report…arrow_forward
