The expanding gases that leave the muzzle of a rifle also contribute to the recoil. A .30 caliber bullet has mass 7.20×10−3 kg a

nd a speed of 601 m/s relative to the muzzle when fired from a rifle that has mass 3.00 kg. The loosely held rifle recoils at a speed of 1.95 m/s relative to the earth.
Find the momentum of the propellant gases in a coordinate system attached to the earth as they leave the muzzle of the rifle.

Answer:

Mg= 1.3418 kg*m/s

Explanation:

Mass of rifle

m_{r}=2.90 kg

Recoil velocity of rifle

v_{r}=1.95 m/s

Momentum of rifle

m*v_{r}=3.0kg*1.95\frac{m}{s}==5.85 \frac{kg*m}{s}

mass of bullet

mb=7.2x10^{-3} kg=0.0072 kg

velocity of bullet relative to muzzel

v_{b} = 601 m/s

velocity of bullet relative to earth= 601 - 1.95=599.05 m/s

momentum of bullet

m_{b}*m_{b}=7.2x10^{-3}kg*599.05\frac{m}{s}=4.3132 \frac{kg*m}{s}

the momentum of the propellant gases = momentum of rifle - momentum of bullet

the momentum of the propellant gases

Mg=5.655 -4.3132

Mg= 1.3418 kg*m/s

the momentum of the propellant gases in a coordinate system attached to the earth as they leave the muzzle of the rifle is 1.3418 kgm/s

A weather balloon has a volume of 90.0 l when it is released from sea level. What
frozen [14]

The final atmospheric pressure is 5.19\cdot 10^4 Pa

Explanation:

Assuming that the temperature of the air does not change, we can use Boyle's law, which states that for a gas kept at constant temperature, the pressure of the gas is inversely proportional to its volume. In formula,

pV=const.

where

p is the gas pressure

V is the volume

The equation can also be rewritten as

p_1 V_1 = p_2 V_2

where in our problem we have:

p_1= 1.03\cdot 10^5 Pa is the initial pressure (the atmospheric pressure at sea level)

V_1 = 90.0 L is the initial volume

p_2 is the final pressure

V_2 = 175.0 L is the final volume

Solving the equation for p2, we find the final pressure:

p_2 = \frac{p_1 V_1}{V_2}=\frac{(1.01\cdot 10^5)(90.0)}{175.0}=5.19\cdot 10^4 Pa

FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

The ratio of electric force to the gravitational force is 2.27\times 10^{39}

Explanation:

It is given that,

Distance between electron and proton, r=4.53\ A=4.53\times 10^{-10}\ m

Electric force is given by :

F_e=k\dfrac{q_1q_2}{r^2}

Gravitational force is given by :

F_g=G\dfrac{m_1m_2}{r^2}

Where

m_1 is mass of electron, m_1=9.1\times 10^{-31}\ kg

m_2 is mass of proton, m_2=1.67\times 10^{-27}\ kg

q_1 is charge on electron, q_1=-1.6\times 10^{-19}\ kg

q_2 is charge on proton, q_2=1.6\times 10^{-19}\ kg

\dfrac{F_e}{F_g}=\dfrac{kq_1q_2}{Gm_1m_2}

\dfrac{F_e}{F_g}=\dfrac{9\times 10^9\times (1.6\times 10^{-19})^2}{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 9.1\times 10^{-31}\times 1.67\times 10^{-27}}

\dfrac{F_e}{F_g}=2.27\times 10^{39}

So, the ratio of electric force to the gravitational force is 2.27\times 10^{39}. Hence, this is the required solution.

An object is moving with the speed of light around the Earth. How much time will it take to complete one round trip along the eq
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

0.14 seconds

Explanation:

The speed of light in vacuum is approximately 3.0*10^8. The distance that would be covered by the object would be equivalent to the circumference of the cross-section of the earth on the equator.

Circumference = 2\pi*6400000 =4.02*10^7

Time = distance/speed = 4.2*10^7 / 3.0*10^8 =0.14s

Which electromagnetic wave would have a wavelength approximately the size of the tip of a pencil?
marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

That's simply because any electromagnetic wave longer than a microwave is called a radio wave. Microwaves: Obviously used for cooking in microwave ovens, but also for transmitting information in radar equipment. Microwaves are like short-wavelength radio waves. Typical size: 15cm (the length of a pencil).
