Pressure is measured as force per unit area, which is the third option.

<h3>What is pressure?</h3>

Pressure is amount of force that is applied over a given area divided by the size of this area.

Pressure is calculated by multiplying the force applied on the object by the area covered.

Since force is measured in Newtons (N) and area is measured in m², the unit of pressure is Nm².

Therefore, pressure is measured as force per unit area.

A 23 g bullet traveling at 230 m/s penetrates a 2.0 kg block of wood and emerges cleanly at 170 m/s. If the block is stationary
Ann [662]

The distance traveled by the wood after the bullet emerges is 0.16 m.

The given parameters;

  • <em>mass of the bullet, m = 23 g = 0.023 g</em>
  • <em>speed of the bullet, u = 230 m/s</em>
  • <em>mass of the wood, m = 2 kg</em>
  • <em>final speed of the bullet, v = 170 m/s</em>
  • <em>coefficient of friction, μ = 0.15</em>

The final velocity of the wood after the bullet hits is calculated as follows;

m_1u_1 + m_2 u_2 = m_1v_1 + m_2v_2\\\\0.023(230) + 2(0) = 0.023(170) + 2v_2\\\\5.29 = 3.91 + 2v_2\\\\2v_2 = 1.38\\\\v_2 = \frac{1.38}{2} = 0.69 \ m/s

The acceleration of the wood is calculated as follows;

\mu = \frac{a}{g} \\\\a = \mu g\\\\a = 0.15 \times 9.8\\\\a = 1.47 \ m/s^2

The distance traveled by the wood after the bullet emerges is calculated as follows;

v^2 = v_0^2 + 2as\\\\v^2 = 0 + 2as\\\\v^2 = 2as\\\\s = \frac{v^2}{2a} \\\\s = \frac{(0.69)^2}{2(1.47)} \\\\s = 0.16 \ m

Thus, the distance traveled by the wood after the bullet emerges is 0.16 m.

a 2.35 water bucket is swung in a full cirlce of radius 0.824 m just fast enough so that the water doesn't fall out the top mean
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

2.84 m/s

Explanation:

At the top position of the circular trajectory, the normal reaction is zero:

N = 0

So it means that the only force that is providing the centripetal force is the gravitational force (the weight of the bucket). Therefore we have:

mg = m \frac{v^2}{r}

where

m is the mass of the water bucket

g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

v is the speed of the bucket

r = 0.824 m is the radius of the circle

Solving for v,

v=\sqrt{gr}=\sqrt{(9.8 m/s^2)(0.824 m)}=2.84 m/s
