Answer:

Melting

Explanation:

The process of a solid becoming a liquid is called melting. (an older term that you may see sometimes is fusion). The opposite process, a liquid becoming a solid, is called solidification. For any pure substance, the temperature at which melting occurs—known as the melting point—is a characteristic of that substance.

To take off from the ground, an airplane must reach a sufficiently high speed. The velocity required for the takeoff, the takeof

il63 [147K]

<h2> The potential and kinetic energy of airplane are affected by these factors </h2>

Explanation:

When airplane rises up , it requires potential energy . This potential energy can be taken from the kinetic energy of airplane .

Thus if the speed of wind is larger , it can either oppose the motion of velocity or can favour the velocity of airplane . By which its kinetic energy is effected .

If the weight of airplane is changed , it will effect the potential energy required . Thus heavier plane requires higher potential energy for attaining the same height .

Thus these two factor has important role in the flight of airplane .

A force (5ỉ - ;)N moves an object from the point P (1,3) m to the point Q (3, 8) m.

natita [175]

Answer:

b) 5 J

Explanation:

Work is the energy transferred by an object when acted by a force along a displacement. Work is the product of force and displacement. The SI unit of work is the joules (J)

To calculate the work done by the force, we have to first get the displacement (D) of the object. Hence:

Displacement (D) = Q(3, 8) - P(1, 3) = (3 - 1, 8 - 3) = (2, 5) = 2i + 5j

The work done is the dot product of the force and the displacement. Force = 5i - j. Hence:

Work done = (5i - j)(2i + 5j) = 10 - 5 = 5 J

Differentiate between velocity ratio and relative velocity in two points ??

stellarik [79]

The difference between velocity and relative velocity is that velocity is measured with respect to a reference point which is relative to a different point. While relative velocity is measured in a frame where an object is either at rest or moving with respect to the absolute frame.

A 30-g bullet is fired with a horizontal velocity of 460 m/s and becomes embedded in block B which has a mass of 3 kg. After the

ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

energy loss due to friction and the impacts = 2.97 J; The impact loss due to AB impacting the carrier is =25.72J; The impact loss at first impact is 6,316.64J

Explanation:

First find the velocity of the bullet after the first impact using

M1V1 + 0 = (M1 + M2)v'

Where M1 is the mass of the bullet

M2 is the mass of the block B

M3 is the mass of the carrier

v' is the velocity

v' = M1V1/(M1 + M2)

v'= (30 × 10^-3 kg)(460 m/s) / (30 × 10^-3 kg + 3 kg)

v' = 13.8/3.03

v'= 4.55m/s

Also calculate final velocity of the carrier v2'

v2' = M1V1/(M1 + M2 + M3)

v2'= (30 × 10 kg)(460 m/s) / (30 × 10 kg + 3 kg + 30kg)

v2' =0.42m/s

Now to calculate energy loss due to friction

Normal force

N= W1 + W2 = (m1 + m2)g

Where W1 and W2 is the weight of the bullet and block respectively

g is gravitational acceleration for taken as 9.81m/s

= (0.030 kg + 3 kg)(9.81 m/s) 29.724 N

Friction force = coefficient of kinetic× normal force

Where coefficient of kinetic = 0.2

Ff = (0.2)(29.724)= 5.945 N

Now

Energy loss due to friction = frictional force × distance

Assume distance is 0.5 m.

Energy loss due to friction = 5.945 N × 0.5 m

= 2.97J

Kinetic energy of block with embedded bullet immediately after first impact:

1/2 × (m1 + m2)(v')^2

1/2 × (30 × 10^-3 kg + 3 kg)(4.55m/s)^2

= 1/2 × (3.03kg) × (4.55m/s)^2

= 31.36 J

Final kinetic energy of bullet, Block, and Carrier together

1/2 × (m1 + m2 + m3)(v2')^2

1/2 × (30 × 10^-3 kg + 3 kg + 30kg) (0.42m/s)^2

1/2 × (33.03kg) × (0.42m/s)^2

= 2.91 J

Therefore

Loss due to friction and stopping impact = Kinetic energy of block with embedded bullet immediately after first impact - Final kinetic energy of bullet, Block, and Carrier together

= 31.36 J - 2.91 J

= 28.69 J

Impact loss due to AB impacting the carrier = loss due to friction- energy due to friction

28.69J - 2.97J

=25.72J

Initial kinetic energy of system ABC = 1/2(m1vo)

=1/2(0.030 kg)(460 m/s)^2 = 6,348J

Therefore

Impact loss at first impact = Initial kinetic energy of system ABC - Kinetic energy of block with embedded bullet immediately after first impact:

= 6,348J - 31.36 J

= 6,316.64J
