 A neutron is an electrically neutral subatomic particle with a mass just slightly greater than that of a proton. A free neutron is radioactive and decays after a few minutes into other subatomic particles. In one experiment, a neutron at rest was observed to decay into a proton (mass  ) and an electron (mass ). The proton and electron were shot out back to back. The proton speed was measured to be and the electron speed is . N other decay products were detected.

(a) Was momentum conserved in the decay of this neutron?

(b) If a neutrino was emitted in the above neutron decay, in which direction did it travel? Explain your reasoning.

(c) How much momentum did this neutrino ”carry away” with it?

Two points are fixed on an x axis seperated by distnace d. Particle A has mass m adn particle B has mass 3m. A third particle C, of mass 75.0m is to be placed on the x axis and near particles A and B. In terms of distance d, at what x coordinate should C be placed so that the net gravitational force on particle A from particles B and C is zero?

The potential energy function for a system of particles is given by U(x) = −x3 + 2x2 + 3x, where x is the position of one particle in the system.(a) Determine the force Fx on the particle as a function of x. (b) For what values of x is the force equal to zero?
