    Calculating Kinetic Energy of an Alpha Particle

    Homework Statement could you help me for the question b? Homework Equations E = mc^2 The Attempt at a Solution the mass of the alpha particle is 0.66466 x 10^-26 kg >> 4.022 u put it into the equation, so E = 4.022 x c x c = 3.615 x 10^17 eV >> 0.0579 joule my answer is that, but my...

    Thermal conductivity in a heating system

    k = 80 A = 1.5 m2 L = 2 x 10^-3 delta T = 6 K q/t = 80 x 1.5 x 6 / (2x10^-3) so q/t = 360000 what's wrong with thiss? :'(

    Thermal conductivity in a heating system

    Homework Statement In a domestic heating system, a room is warmed by a 'radiator' through which water passes at a rate of 0.12kg s-1. The steady-state difference between the inlet and outlet temperatures of the water is 6.0 K. The radiator is made of iron of thermal conductivity 80 W...
