9 Typical Problems

10 Two identical twins Speedo and Goslo join a migration from the Earth to Planet X. It is 20.0 LY away in a reference frame in which both planets are in the rest. The twins, of the same age, departs at the same time on different spacecrafts. Speedo’s craft travels steadily at 0.950c, and Goslo’s at 0.750c. Calculate the age difference between the twins after Goslo’s spacecraft lands on Planet X. Which twin is the older?

11 A proton in high-energy accelerator moves with a speed c/2
A proton in high-energy accelerator moves with a speed c/2. Use the work kinetic energy theorem to find the work required to increase the speed to (a) 0.750c and (b) 0.995c.

12 In the constellation Orion we can observe two bright stars: Betelgeuse appears to glow red, while Rigel looks blue in color. Which star has a higher surface temperature? (λred=700nm; λblue=430nm)

13 Electrons are ejected from a metallic surface with speed ranging up to 4.60x105 m/s when light with a wavelength of 625 nm is used. What is the work function of the metal? What is the cutoff frequency of this surface?

14 A 0. 110-nm photon collides with a stationary electron
A nm photon collides with a stationary electron. After the collision, the electron moves forward and the photon recoils backward. Find the momentum and the kinetic energy of the electron. (Compton effect problem)

15 Find the power per unit area radiated from the surface of the sun in the wavelength range to nm

16 The power output of the Sun is 3.77×1026 W.
How much mass is converted to energy in the Sun each second?
