If the accuracy in measuring the position of a particle increases, what happens to the accuracy in measuring its velocity? - The

accuracy in measuring its velocity becomes uncertain.
- The accuracy in measuring its velocity remains the same.
- The accuracy in measuring its velocity also increases.
- The accuracy in measuring its velocity decreases.

Answer:

- The accuracy in measuring its velocity decreases.

Explanation:

This can be explained by Heisenberg's uncertainty principle which states that the position and velocity of a particle can be determined together exactly in reality.

This principle, unlike Newtonian mechanics deal with particles at microscopic level like that of an electron where if the accuracy in measurement of particle's position increases there will be  decreased accuracy in measurement of velocity of that particle.

There will be an uncertainty in accuracy in the measurement of particle's position and its velocity.

A 1.2 kg block of wood hangs motionless from strings. A 50 gram bullet, traveling horzontally, strikes the block and becomes emb
Firdavs [7]

Answer:

speed of the bullet before it hit the block is 200 m/s

Explanation:

given data

mass of block m1 = 1.2 kg

mass of bullet m2 = 50 gram = 0.05 kg

combine speed V= 8.0 m/s

to find out

speed of the bullet before it hit the block

solution

we will apply here conservation of momentum that is

m1 × v1 + m2 × v2 = M × V    .............1

here m1 is mass of block and m2 is mass of bullet and v1 is initial speed of block i.e 0 and v2 is initial speed of bullet and M is combine mass of block and bullet and V is combine speed of block and bullet

put all value in equation 1

m1 × v1 + m2 × v2 = M × V

1.2 × 0 + 0.05 × v2 = ( 1.2 + 0.05 ) × 8

solve it we get

v2 = 200 m/s

so speed of the bullet before it hit the block is 200 m/s

Average velocity = (x( 2.08 ) - x ( 0 )) / ( 2.08 s - 0 s )
x ( 2.08 ) = 1.42 * 2.08² - 0.05 * 2.08³ =
= 1.42 * 4.3264 - 0.443456 = 6.143484 - 0.443456 ≈ 5.7 m
v = ( 5.7 m - 0 m) / (2.08 s - 0 s ) = 5.7 / 2.08 m/s = 27.4 m/s
