A 13 g bullet traveling 213 m/s penetrates a 2.0 kg block of wood and emerges cleanly at 152m/s. If the block is stationary on a

frictionless surface when hit, how fast does it move after the bullet emerges?

Due to the conservation of linear momentum:

p (before) = p (after)

m1u1 + m2u2 = m1v1 + m2v2

0.013*213 + 2*0 = 0.013*152 + 2.0*v

2.769 = 1.976 + 2v

2v = 0.793

v = 0.397ms-1

Which of these is an example of electrical energy being converted to mechanical energy?
GalinKa [24]

Answer:

Ceiling fan

Explanation:

Ceiling fan is a perfect and typical example of electrical energy being converted to mechanical energy.

In most systems, energy is usually transformed from one form to another. Energy is not created neither is it destroyed. We know this by virtue of law of conservation of energy.

  • The ceiling fan is powered by electrical energy from an outlet.
  • The energy from the outlet is used to drive the blades of the fan and set them into motion.
  • This is mechanical energy.

Does anyone know question 6?
vfiekz [6]

Answer:

Yes, the fuse will blow.

Explanation:

We'll begin by converting 50000mA to amperes (A) .this is illustrated below:

1000mA = 1A

Therefore, 50000mA = 50000/1000 = 50A.

From the question given above, the plug can only accommodate 5A. Now if 50000mA i.e 50A is passed through the plug, the plug will blow because the 50A is higher than what the plug can accommodate.
