Answer:

D

Explanation:

By law of conservation of momentum:

momentum before collision = momentum after collision

m_{1} u_1 + m_2 u_2  = m_1 v_1 + m_2  v_2\\ m_1 = mass of bullet\\u_1 = initial speed of bullet\\m_2 = mass of pendulum\\u_2 = initial speed of pendulum\\v_1 = final speed of bullet\\v_2 = final speed of pendulum

Initial speed of bullet is unknown whereas initial speed of pendulum will be zero as it was at rest.

Final speed of bullet and pendulum will be equal as bullet is embedded in pendulum and both moves together a vertical distance of 6.89cm.

Using third equation of motion:

2 a S = v_{f}^2  - v_{i}^2

where:

a = -g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s^2 ( for vertical motion)\\S = h = 6.89cm = Vertical height or distance it covers\\v_f = final speed = 0 (after covering 6.89cm)\\v_i = initial speed (unknown)

Thus by placing values v_i = 1.1620 m/s

this speed will be final speed of collision for the calculation of initial speed of bullet.

Putting values:

(7.91) * x + (1.52*10^3) * 0 = (7.91 + 1.52*10^3) * 1.162\\7.91 x = 1775.431\\x = 224m/s

This 224m/s = 0.224Km/s which is closest to D

What is the resistance of a carbon rod at 25.8 ∘C if its resistance is 0.0200 Ω at 0.0 ∘C ?
torisob [31]

0.02020 ohm is the resistance of a carbon rod at 25.8 ∘C if its resistance is 0.0200 Ω at 0.0 ∘C.

<h3 /><h3>What is a resistor?</h3>

A resistor is an electrical component that controls or restricts how much electrical current can pass across a circuit in an electronic device. A specified voltage can be supplied via resistors to an active device like a transistor.

The temperature of the resistor varies based on the variation in the temperature. The equation that describes the relationship between the two of them is:

R = R0[1+ alpha(T-T0)]  where:

R is the new resistance we are looking for

alpha is the temperature coefficient of resistance. For carbon rod, alpha = ₋ 4.8 x 10^{-4}(1/°c)

T0 is the standard temperature =25.8°C

R0 is the resistance at T0 = 0.0200 ohms

T is the temperature at which we want to get R = 0

Substitute in the equation to get R as follows:

R = 0.0200 [1+( ₋ 4.8 x 10^{-4}) (0-25.8)] = 0.02020 ohm

Calculate the change in total internal energy for a system that releases 2.59 × 104 kJ of heat and does 6.46 × 104 kJ of work on
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

See explanation below

Explanation:

The equation to use for this is the following:

dU = q + w

As the heat is being release, this value is negative, and same here happens with the work done, because it's in the surroundings.

Therefore the change in the energy would be:

dU = -2.59x10^4 - 6.46^4

dU = -9.05x10^4 kJ
