(Please note that I put this question up already and they got CD and it was wrong. This does not include that CD are wrong, there can be more right answers, one can be wrong, or both).

A neutron collides elastically with a helium nucleus (at rest initially) whose mass is four times that of the neutron. The helium nucleus is observed to scatter at an angle θ2 = 52° from the neutron's initial direction. The neutron's initial speed is 52000·m/s.
Determine the angle at which the neutron scatters, θ1, measured from its initial direction:
What is the speed of the neutron after the collision?
What is the speed of the helium nucleus after the collision?

A charge per unit length λ = +6.00 μC/m is uniformly distributed along the positive y-axis from y = 0 to y = +a = +0.500 m. A charge per unit length λ = -6.00 μC/m, is uniformly distributed along the negative y-axis from y = 0 to y = –a = -0.500 m. What is the magnitude of the electric field at a point on the x-axis a distance x = 0.431 m from the origin?

78. A commuter train travels between two downtown stations. Because the stations are only 1.00 km apart, the train never reaches its maximum possible cruising speed. During rush hour the engineer minimizes the time interval ?t1 between two stations by accelerating the rate a1 = 0.100 m/s2 for a time interval ?t1 and then immediately braking with acceleration a2 = ?0.500 m/s2 for a time interval ?t2. Find the minimum time interval ?tand the time interval ?t1.

A beam of photons (q = +1.6 x 10^-19 C) is moving with various speeds in the positive x direction (to the right). It enters a region where there is a uniform magnetic field of magnitude 0.25T pointing in the negative z direction (into the page).
a) The protons feel a force due to this magnetic field. Explain why, and indicate the direction of the force.
b) Not all protons will feel a force of the same magnitude. Why?
c) As a result of the magnetic force, the protons will deviate from their speed original direction towards the right. It is desired that those protons traveling at a speed of 1.75*10^5 m/s don't deviate at all and continue on a straight path to the right. This is to be achieved by turning on an electric field in the same region as the magnetic field. In what direction should the electric field point? Explain.
d) Find the magnitude of the electric field necessary to achieve the result of the previous question.
