    Problems (total 6 problems, 110%)


    1. Lennard-Jones Potential: (25%) The potential energy associated with the force between
    two neutral atoms in a molecule can be modeled by the Lennard-Jones potential as
      
    U ( x)  4 ( )12  ( ) 6  , where x is the separation of the atoms. (a)What is the most
     x x 
    likely distance between the two atoms? (10%) (b) Given =0.263 nm, and =1.51×10-22J
    are two typical constants in a molecule, what is the atom separation in a typical chemical
    bond? (5%) (c) Draw the potential curve qualitatively (5%) (d)When the two atoms are
    separated at a distance of 4.5×10-10 m, the two atoms are subject to a restoration or
    repelling force? (5%), (e) Explain you answer in (d) (5%)
    This problem is from Page 201 (Example 7.9) of text book; in lecture notes p8-4
    2. Kinetic Energy: (20%) A free particle, which has a mass of 20 grams, is initially at rest.
    If a force of 100 dyne is applied for a period of 10 seconds, what kinetic energy is
    acquired by the particle? What is the work done by the force?
    3. Moment of Inertia: (15%) What is the moment of inertia of a solid annular cylinder with
    total mass M, with outer radius R2, and Inner radius R1, rotating about any of its central
    axis?
    4. Linear momentum conservation: (15%) Two masses are in a collision course with mass
    M1, M2 and velocities V1 and V2, respectively. Using Newton’s third law, derive (or prove)
    the conservation of linear momentum in an isolated system.
    5. Elastic potential energy: (15%) Suppose a massless spring with spring constant k can be
    stretched to a maximum displacement of Xmax, derive the elastic potential that can be
    stored in this spring.
    6. Electric power and kinetic energy: (20%) Electric car is the future vehicle for
    transportation. Suppose you buy a new Tesla Model-3 car which have a battery power is
    400 kW. Once you charge, it can provide 10 hrs continuous riding. How much distance
    can you cover during the time? Let the mass of your car is 250 kg and the energy
    consumed by the engine is totally equal to kinetic energy of the car.
