Kinetic energy....

Physics
1 answer:
Solnce55 [7]3 years ago
7 0

Explanation:

Given parameters:

mass of bullet 1 = 0.0014kg

velocity of bullet 1 = 396m/s

mass of bullet 2 = 7.1 x 10⁷kg

velocity of bullet 2 = 13m/s

Unknown;

Comparing the kinetic energy

Solution:

Kinetic energy is the energy due to the motion of a body.

   K.E = \frac{1}{2} m v^{2}

bullet 1:

  K.E =  \frac{1}{2} x 0.0014 x  396^{2} = 109.8J

bullet 2:

 K.E =  \frac{1}{2} 7.1 x 10⁷ x  13^{2} = 6 x 10⁹J

The second bullet has more kinetic energy than the first one.

he cans have essentially the same size, shape, and mass. Which can has more energy at the bottom of the ramp
stepladder [879]

Answer:

c. both have same energy

Explanation:

The complete question is

suppose you have two cans, one with milk, and the other with refried beans. The cans have essentially the same size, shape, and mass. If you release both cans at the same time, on a downhill ramp, which can has more energy at the bottom of the ramp? ignore friction and air resistance..

a. can with beans

b. can with milk

c. both have same energy

please explain your answer

Since both cans have the same size, shape, and mass, and they are released at the same height above the ramp, they'll possess the same amount of mechanical energy. This is because their mechanical energy, which is the combination of their potential and kinetic energy are both dependent on their mass. Also, having the same physical quantities like their size and shape means that they will experience the same environmental or physical factors, which will be balanced for both.

A spaceship is headed toward Alpha Centauri at 0.999c. According to us, the distance to Alpha Centauri is about 4 light-years. H
aniked [119]

Answer:

According to the travellers, Alpha Centauri is <em>c) very slightly less than 4 light-years</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

For a stationary observer, Alpha Centauri is 4 light-years away but for an observer who is travelling close to the speed of light, Alpha Centauri is <em>very slightly less than 4 light-years. </em>The following expression explains why:

v = d / t

where

  • v is the speed of the spaceship
  • d is the distance
  • t is the time

Therefore,

d = v × t

d = (0.999 c)(4 light-years)

d = 3.996  light-years

This distance is<em> very slightly less than 4 light-years. </em>

A hydrogen discharge lamp emits light with two prominent wavelengths: 656 nm (red) and 486 nm (blue). The light enters a flint-g
mezya [45]

Answer:

The angle between the red and blue light is 1.7°.

Explanation:

Given that,

Wavelength of red = 656 nm

Wavelength of blue = 486 nm

Angle = 37°

Suppose we need to find the angle between the red and blue light as it leaves the prism

n_{r}=1.572

n_{b}=1.587

We need to calculate the angle for red wavelength

Using Snell's law,

n_{r}\sin\theta_{i}=n_{a}\sin\theta_{r}

Put the value into the formula

1.572\sin37=1\times\sin\theta_{r}

\theta_{r}=\sin^{-1}(\dfrac{1.572\sin37}{1})

\theta_{r}=71.0^{\circ}

We need to calculate the angle for blue wavelength

Using Snell's law,

n_{b}\sin\theta_{i}=n_{a}\sin\theta_{b}

Put the value into the formula

1.587\sin37=1\times\sin\theta_{b}

\theta_{b}=\sin^{-1}(\dfrac{1.587\sin37}{1})

\theta_{b}=72.7^{\circ}

We need to calculate the angle between the red and blue light

Using formula of angle

\Delta \theta=\theta_{b}-\theta_{r}

Put the value into the formula

\Delta \theta=72.7-71.0

\Delta \theta=1.7^{\circ}

Hence, The angle between the red and blue light is 1.7°.

Paul lifts a sack weighing 245 newtons vertically from the ground and places it on a platform at a height of 0.7 meters. If he t
d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

B. 17.15 watts

Explanation:

Given that

Time = 10 seconds

height = distance = 0.7 meters

weight of sack = mg = F = 245 newtons

Power = work done/ time taken

Where work done = force × distance

Substituting the given parameters into the formula

Work done = 245 newton × 0.7 meters

Work done = 171.5 J

Recall,

Power = work done/time

Power = 171.5 J ÷ 10

Power = 17.15 watts

Hence the power expended is B. 17.15 watts
