   After impact velocity = 14.968 ft/s

Weight and mass of Bullet and wooden block:

Bullet: w = 1oz = 1/16 lb m = 0.001941 lb

wooden block : W = 5lb M = 0.15528 lb

velocity of block and bullet immediately after impact:

Σmv1 + ΣImp = mv2

Resolving vertical component

( m× v₀cos30⁰) + 0 = ( m+M) v'

v' = ( m× v₀cos30⁰)/ (m+M)

v' = 14.968 ft/s

Horizontal and vertical component of the impulse exerted by block on the bullet:

   Here we will apply the principle of impulse and momentum.

 Horizontal component:

          -mv₀ cos30⁰ + RxΔt  =0

                                 RxΔt = mv₀sin30⁰

                                          = 0.001941 × 1400sin30⁰

                                   RxΔt = 1.3587 lb.s

         Vertical component:

                           -mv₀cos30⁰  + RyΔt =  -mv'

                                     RyΔt = m( v₀cos30⁰-v')

                                     RyΔt = 0.001941(1400cos30⁰ - 14.968)

                                              = 2.32 lb.s

Assuming the speed of sound is 340 m/s, what is the most likely speed of the jet shown below?
inysia [295]

Well we know it has to be greater than 300,000 km/s since we can't see it.

We can't calculate it any closer than that using the given information.

A loop rests in the plane of a page of textbook while a magnetic field is directed into the page. A clockwise current is induced
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

When the magnetic field is tilted so it is no longer perpendicular to the page.

When the magnetic field gets stronger.

When the size of the loop decreases.

Explanation:

According to the Faraday-Lenz law, the change of the magnetic flux over time causes an induced current, this flux is given by:

\Phi_B=BScos\theta

Therefore, there will be a variable magnetic flux, when the magnitude of the magnetic field (B) changes over time, when the area of the loop (S) changes over time and / or when the angle (\theta) between the field and the surface vector changes over time.

A 295-kg object and a 595-kg object are separated by 4.10 m.
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

a)F=3 x 10⁻⁷ N

b)x=2.405 m

Explanation:

Given that

m₁=295 kg

m₂=595 kg

d= 4.1 m

a)

m₃=63 kg

r=d/2 = 2.05 m

The force between the mass m₁ and m₃

F_{13}=\dfrac{Gm_1m_3}{r^2}

by putting the values

F_{13}=\dfrac{Gm_1m_3}{r^2}

F_{13}=\dfrac{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 295\times 63 }{2.05^2}

F₁₃=2.94 x 10⁻⁷ N

The force  between the mass m₂ and m₃

by putting the values

F_{23}=\dfrac{Gm_2m_3}{r^2}

F_{23}=\dfrac{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 595\times 63 }{2.05^2}

F₂₃=5.94 x 10⁻⁷ N

The net force F

F= F₂₃- F₁₃

F=5.94 x 10⁻⁷ N-2.94 x 10⁻⁷ N

F=3 x 10⁻⁷ N

b)

Lest take at distance x from mass m₂ net force is zero.

F_{23}=\dfrac{Gm_2m_3}{x^2}

F_{13}=\dfrac{Gm_1m_3}{(4.1-x)^2}

Form above two equation

\dfrac{Gm_1m_3}{(4.1-x)^2}=\dfrac{Gm_2m_3}{x^2}

\dfrac{m_1}{(4.1-x)^2}=\dfrac{m_2}{x^2}

\dfrac{295}{(4.1-x)^2}=\dfrac{595}{x^2}

x²=2.01(4.1-x)²

x=1.42 (4.1-x)

x=5.82 - 1.42x

x=2.405 m
