A bullet is dropped into a river from a very high bridge. At the same time, another bullet is fired from a gun straight down tow

ards the water. If air resistance is negligible, the acceleration of the bullets just before they strike the water:
(A) is greater for the dropped bullet
(B) is greater for the fired bullet
(C) is the same for both bullets
(D) depends on how high they started

Answer:

Option (c)

Explanation:

Both the bullets have same acceleration because they both falls under the influence of acceleration due to gravity.

The bullet which is fired from the gun has some initial velocity but the bullet which is dropped has zero initial velocity.

the acceleration is acting on both the bullets which is equal to the acceleration due to gravity and they both in motion in the influence of gravity.

List and describe three biological applications of electricity
mihalych1998 [28]

Before we dive into how electricity is used around the home it is worth putting household electricity use in perspective.

Household electricity use generally makes up about a third of total electricity consumption  in most developed nations.  Using data from the European Union we can give an example of how electricity demand is split among different sectors.

An object has a mass of 30 grams and measures 3cmx2cmx1cm. What is the density of the object?
dimulka [17.4K]
The density of the object is the ratio of its mass and volume. From the given dimensions above, we determine the volume through the equation,

      V = L x W x H

Substituting,

    V = (3 cm)(2 cm)(1 cm) = 6 cm³

From the idea presented above,
    d = m/V

Substituting the known values,

   d = (30 g)/ (6 cm³) = 5 g/cm³

ANSWER: 5 g/cm³

On a smooth horizontal floor, an object slides into a spring which is attached to another mass that is initially stationary. Whe
HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

E) momentum and mechanical energy

Explanation:

In the context, an object is attached to the another mass with a spring which is initially at a rest position. Now when the spring is compressed, the two masses moves with the same speed. Now since the both the masses combines with the spring to move together they are considered as one system and in this case the momentum and the kinetic energy will be conserved.

The kinetic energy and momentum of the system after collision and the kinetic energy and momentum of the two masses before collision will be constant.

A 7-kg bowling ball moving at 4 m/s strikes a 1 kg bowling pin. If the ball slows to 2 m/s in 0.05 s, how much force does it exe
iren [92.7K]

Answer:

280 N

Explanation:

acceleration = v2-v1 / time taken = (2-4 )/ 0.05 = -40 m/s^2  ( neg sign indicates slowing down )

force exerted = ma = 7 kg x -40 m/s^2 = - 280 N ( neg sign means opposite direction of initial velocity )

since the 7 kg ball is slowing down, the  direction of force will be opposite of the initial velocity , and it will be 280 N
