0.A 20-g bullet moving at 1 000 m/s is fired through a one-kg block of wood emerging at a speed of 100 m/s. What is the kinetic

energy of the block that results from the collision if the block had not been moving prior to the collision and was free to move?

Answer:

KE = 0.162 KJ

Explanation:

given,

mass of bullet (m)= 20 g = 0.02 Kg

speed of the bullet (u)= 1000 m/s

mass of block(M) = 1 Kg

velocity of bullet after collision (v)= 100 m/s

kinetic energy = ?

using conservation of momentum

m u = m v + M V

0.02 x 1000 = 0.02 x 100 + 1 x V

20 = 2 + V

V = 18 m/s

now,

Kinetic energy of the block

KE = \dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

KE = \dfrac{1}{2}\times 1 \times 18^2

KE = 162 J

KE = 0.162 KJ

A nonconducting sphere has radius R = 2.81 cm and uniformly distributed charge q = +2.35 fC. Take the electric potential at the
Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

(a). The electric potential at 1.650 cm is -1.219\times10^{-4}\ V.

(b). The electric potential at 2.81 cm is -3.759\times10^{-4}\ V.

Explanation:

Given that,

Radius of sphere R=2.81 cm

Charge = +2.35 fC

Potential at center of sphere

V = 0

(a). We need to calculate the potential at a distance r = 1.60 cm

Using formula of potential difference

V_(r)-V_(0)=-\int_{0}^{r}{E(r)}dr

V_{r}-0=-\int_{0}^{r}{\dfrac{qr}{4\pi\epsilon_{0}R^3}}dr

V_{r}=-(\dfrac{qr^2}{8\pi\epsilon_{0}R^3})_{0}^{1.60\times10^{-2}}

V_{r}=-(\dfrac{2.35\times10^{-15}\times(1.60\times10^{-2})^2}{8\times\pi\times8.85\times10^{-12}\times(2.81\times10^{-2})^3})

V_{r}=-0.00012190\ V

V_{r}=-1.219\times10^{-4}\ V

The electric potential at 1.650 cm is -1.219\times10^{-4}\ V.

(b). We need to calculate the potential at a distance r = R

Using formula of  potential difference

V_{R}=-\dfrac{2.35\times10^{-15}}{8\pi\times8.85\times10^{-12}\times2.81\times10^{-2}}

V_{R}=-0.0003759\ V

V_{R}=-3.759\times10^{-4}\ V

The electric potential at 2.81 cm is -3.759\times10^{-4}\ V.

Hence, This is the required solution.

The triceps muscle in the back of the upper arm extends the forearm. This muscle in a professional boxer exerts a force of 2551
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

0.7 kg m²

Explanation:

F = force exerted applied by muscle in a professional boxer = 2551 N

r = length of lever arm = 3.15 cm = 0.0315 m

α = angular acceleration of the forearm = 115 rad/s²

I = moment of inertia of the boxer's forearm

τ = Torque applied by muscle in a professional boxer

Torque is given as

τ = I α = r F

Inserting the values

I (115) = (0.0315) (2551)

I = 0.7 kg m²

A neighbor's child wants to go to a neighborhood carnival to experience the wild rides. The neighbor is worried about safety as
seraphim [82]

Answer:

No, the ride is not safe

Explanation:

From the diagram attached, it is seen that

\sum f_{y} = 0

\tau cos \theta - W = 0................(1)

\sum f_{x} = 0

-ma + \tau sin \theta = 0.......(2)

a = w^{2} r

From the diagram, r = Lsin \theta

a = w^{2} L sin \theta

w = \frac{2\pi }{T}

a = \frac{4\pi ^{2}L sin \theta }{T^{2} }............(3)

Put (3) into (2)

\tau sin \theta = \frac{4\pi ^{2}m L sin \theta }{T^{2} }

\tau  = \frac{4\pi ^{2}m L  }{T^{2} }

w = weight of chair + weight of child = 50 + 10 = 60 lb

g = 32 ft/s²

m = w/g = 60/32 = 1.875

L = 30 ft

T = 3 secs

\tau  = \frac{4\pi ^{2}*1.875*30  }{0.3^{2} }

\tau = 246.74 lbs

since 246.74 lbs > 200 lbs, it is not safe because the stationary chair will creak

Initially, a particle is moving at 5.25 m/s at an angle of 35.5° above the horizontal. Three seconds later, its velocity is 6.0
ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

 a =( -0.32 i ^ - 2,697 j ^)  m/s²

Explanation:

This problem is an exercise of movement in two dimensions, the best way to solve it is to decompose the terms and work each axis independently.

Break down the speeds in two moments

initial

  v₀ₓ = v₀ cos θ

  v₀ₓ = 5.25 cos 35.5

v₀ₓ = 4.27 m / s

   v_{oy} = v₀ sin θ

 v_{oy}= 5.25 sin35.5

v_{oy} = 3.05 m / s

Final

vₓ = 6.03 cos (-56.7)

vₓ = 3.31 m / s

v_{y} = v₀ sin θ

v_{y} = 6.03 sin (-56.7)

v_{y} = -5.04 m / s

Having the speeds and the time, we can use the definition of average acceleration that is the change of speed in the time order

    a = (v_{f} - v₀) /t

    aₓ = (3.31 -4.27)/3

    aₓ = -0.32 m/s²

    a_{y} = (-5.04-3.05)/3

   a_{y} =  -2.697 m/s²
