Hello
The bullet is moving by uniformly accelerated motion.
The initial velocity is v_i=180~m/s, the final velocity is v_i=0~m/s, and the total time of the motion is \Delta t=0.02~s, so the acceleration is given by
a= \frac{v_f-v_i}{\Delta t} = -9000~m/s^2 
where the negative sign means that is a deceleration.
Therefore we can calculate the total distance covered by the bullet in its motion using
S=v_i t + \frac{1}{2}at^2 = 180~m/s \cdot 0.02~s + \frac{1}{2}(-9000~m/s^2)(0.02~s)^2=1.8~m
So, the bullet penetrates the sandbag 1.8 meters.

Where are the physics in football
sasho [114]

Answer:

The branch of physics that is most relevant to football is mechanics, the study of motion and its causes.

Explanation:

When the ball leaves the punter's foot, it is moving with a given velocity (speed plus angle of direction) depending upon the force with which he kicks the ball. The ball moves in two directions, horizontally and vertically. Because the ball was launched at an angle, the velocity is divided into two pieces: a horizontal component and a vertical component.

Which is an example of electrical energy being converted or changed into light energy?
Lera25 [3.4K]
When I see the word "which" at the beginning of your question,
I just KNOW that there's a list of choices printed right there
next to he part that you copied, and for some mysterious
reason, you decided not to let us see the choices.

Any flashlight, light bulb, laser, or spark ... like lightning ...
converts some electrical energy into some light energy.
