Stars are made of very hot gas. This gas is mostly hydrogen and helium, which are the two lightest elements. Stars shine by burning hydrogen into helium in their cores, and later in their lives create heavier elements.

A 1-oz bullet is traveling with a velocity of 1400 ft/s when it impacts and becomes embedded in a 5-lb wooden block. The block c
schepotkina [342]

   After impact velocity = 14.968 ft/s

Weight and mass of Bullet and wooden block:

Bullet: w = 1oz = 1/16 lb m = 0.001941 lb

wooden block : W = 5lb M = 0.15528 lb

velocity of block and bullet immediately after impact:

Σmv1 + ΣImp = mv2

Resolving vertical component

( m× v₀cos30⁰) + 0 = ( m+M) v'

v' = ( m× v₀cos30⁰)/ (m+M)

v' = 14.968 ft/s

Horizontal and vertical component of the impulse exerted by block on the bullet:

   Here we will apply the principle of impulse and momentum.

 Horizontal component:

          -mv₀ cos30⁰ + RxΔt  =0

                                 RxΔt = mv₀sin30⁰

                                          = 0.001941 × 1400sin30⁰

                                   RxΔt = 1.3587 lb.s

         Vertical component:

                           -mv₀cos30⁰  + RyΔt =  -mv'

                                     RyΔt = m( v₀cos30⁰-v')

                                     RyΔt = 0.001941(1400cos30⁰ - 14.968)

                                              = 2.32 lb.s

A 0.5 kg yellow bouncy ball rolls to the right at a speed of 8 m/s while a 0.25 kg blue bouncy ball rolls
inessss [21]

Explanation:

Let yellow ball be m1 = 0.5kg with u1 = 8 m/s and blue ball be m2 = 0.25 kg with u2 = - 4 m /s respectively.

After collision, blue ball travels 12 m/s.

<u>Using conservation of Linear Momentum</u> :

m1u1 + m2u2 = m1v1 + m2v2

0.5* 8 + 0.25 * - 4 = 0.5 * v1 + 0.25 * 12

v1 = 0 m/sec i.e. <u>Yellow ball comes to rest</u>.

krek1111 [17]

Answer:

Introspection is a process that involves looking inward to examine one's own thoughts and emotions. ... The experimental use of introspection is similar to what you might do when you analyze your own thoughts and feelings but in a much more structured and rigorous way.

During a goal-line stand, a 112-kg fullback moving eastward with a speed of 6 m/s
11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

-1.24 m/s

Explanation:

Total momentum before collision = total momentum after collision

Total momentum before collision = (mass of full back * velocity of fullback) + (mass of lineman * velocity of line man).

Mass of full back = 112 kg, mass of line bag = 120 kg, velocity of full back  6 m/s (east), velocity of line back = -8 m/s (west). Hence:

Total momentum before collision = (112 * 6) + (120 * -8) = 672 - 960 = -288 kgm/s

The total momentum after collision = (mass of full back + mass of line back) * velocity after collision.

Let velocity after collision be v, hence:

The total momentum after collision = (112 + 120)v = 232v

Total momentum before collision = total momentum after collision

-288 = 232v

v = -288 / 232

v = -1.24 m/s

Therefore after collision, the two players would move at a velocity 1.24 m/s west (the same direction as the lineman).
