A sigma0 particle with mass 1193 MeV/c^2 decays into a lambda0 particle with mass 1116 MeV/c^2 a photon. Find the energy and momentum of the photon, assuming that the kinetic energy of the lambda0 particle is negligible.

This is a standard A-level particle physics question. To solve it, we need to use three equations given in the formula sheet of the paper. To find the energy of the photon, we use Einsteins famous energy-...

Particle A (60kg) moves right at 50m/s. It collides with particle B (250kg) moving left at 10m/s. If after the collision particle A moves left at 20m/s, calculate the final velocity of particle B

First the total initial momentum of the particle system is calculated. Treat right as the positive x-direction and left as the negative x-direction. Then:Total initial momentum (Pi) = Inital momentum of A...

People A and B are taking a lift of mass 500 kg which has constant acceleration and the force from the rope that pulls it is 7500 N. The scales where the people stand show a reading of 720 N and 500 N.

Question 1 : Find the acceleration of the lift.Implementing Newton's Second Law we have : F net =Mα lift --->T-F A -F B -Mg =...
