A 0.03-kg bullet is fired with a horizontal velocity of 470 m/s and becomes embedded in block B which has a mass of 3 kg. After

the impact, block B slides on a 30-kg carrier C until it impacts the end of the carrier. Knowing the impact between B and C is perfectly plastic and the coefficient of kinetic friction between B and C is 0.2, determine the velocity of the bullet and block B after the first impact and the final velocity of the carrier. (Round the final answer answers to two decimal places.)

Answer with Explanation:

We are given that

Mass of bullet,m_1=0.03 kg

u_1=470 m/s

m_2=3 kg

\mu_k=0.2

m_3=30 kg

We have to find the velocity of the bullet and block B after the first impact and final velocity of the carrier.

According to law of conservation of momentum

m_1u_1=(m_1+m_2)v

0.03(470)=(0.03+3)v

v=\frac{0.03(470)}{(0.03+3)}=4.65 m/s

Hence, the velocity of the bullet and block B after the first impact=4.65 m/s

According to law of conservation of momentum

(m_1+m_2)v=(m_1+m_2+m_3)V

(0.03+3)\times 4.65=(0.03+3+30)V

V=\frac{(0.03+3)\times 4.65}{(0.03+3+30)}

V=0.43 m/s

Answer:

v_B=4.65\ m.s^{-1} is  the velocity of the block and the bullet system after the first impact.

v_c=0.43\ m.s^{-1} is the velocity of the carrier.

Explanation:

Given

mass of bullet, m=0.03\ kg

horizontal velocity of bullet, v=470\ m.s^{-1}

mass of block, m_B=3\ kg

mass of carrier, m_c=30\ kg

coefficient of kinetic friction between block and carrier, \mu_k=0.2

Since the collision between the bullet and the block is perfectly plastic:

We have the conservation of linear momentum as:

m.v=(m+m_B).v_B=(m+m_B+m_c).v_c

0.03\times 470=(0.03+3)\times v_B=(0.03+3+30)\times v_c

v_B=4.6535\ m.s^{-1} is  the velocity of the block and the bullet system after collision.

After the collision of block & carrier:

v_c=0.4268\ m.s^{-1} is the velocity of the carrier.

A golfer hits her tee-shot due north towards the fairway. Her shot has an initial velocity of 60 m/s. A 15 m/s wind is blowing i
vovangra [49]

Answer:

c=71.4m/s

\theta=8.54\textdegree

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

Initial velocity of 60 m/s

Wind speed V_w= 15 m/s \angle  45 \textdegree

Generally Resolving vector mathematically

  sin(45\textdegree)15=10.6\\cos(45\textdegree)15=10.6

Generally the equation Pythagoras theorem is given mathematically by

c^2=a^2+b^2

c^2=10.6^2 +(10.6+60)^2

c=\sqrt{10.6^2 +(10.6+60)^2}

Therefore Resultant velocity (m/s)

c=71.4m/s

b)Resultant direction

Generally the equation for solving Resultant direction

\theta=tan^-1(\frac{y}{x})

Therefore

\theta=tan^-1(\frac{10.6}{70.6})

\theta=8.54\textdegree

a surface recieving sound is moved from it original position to a position three times farther away from the source of the sound
Delicious77 [7]
Sound intensity = 1/(r^2)

That is Sound intensity is indirectly proportional to  the distance. Therefore, sound becomes 9 times less intense.

A tennis ball connected to a string is spun around in a vertical, circular path at a uniform speed. The ball has a mass m = 0.15
Oksanka [162]

1) 5.5 N

When the ball is at the bottom of the circle, the equation of the forces is the following:

T-mg = m\frac{v^2}{R}

where

T is the tension in the string, which points upward

mg is the weight of the string, which points downward, with

m = 0.158 kg being the mass of the ball

g = 9.8 m/s^2 being the acceleration due to gravity

m \frac{v^2}{R} is the centripetal force, which points upward, with

v = 5.22 m/s being the speed of the ball

R = 1.1 m being the radius of the circular trajectory

Substituting numbers and re-arranging the formula, we find T:

T=mg+m\frac{v^2}{R}=(0.158 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)+(0.158 kg)\frac{(5.22 m/s)^2}{1.1 m}=5.5 N

2) 3.9 N

When the ball is at the side of the circle, the only force acting along the centripetal direction is the tension in the string, therefore the equation of the forces becomes:

T=m\frac{v^2}{R}

And by substituting the numerical values, we find

T=(0.158 kg)\frac{(5.22 m/s)^2}{1.1 m}=3.9 N

3) 2.3 N

When the ball is at the top of the circle, both the tension and the weight of the ball point downward, in the same direction of the centripetal force. Therefore, the equation of the force is

T+mg=m\frac{v^2}{R}

And substituting the numerical values and re-arranging it, we find

T=m\frac{v^2}{R}-mg=(0.158 kg)\frac{5.22 m/s)^2}{1.1 m}-(0.158 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)=2.3 N

4) 3.3 m/s

The minimum velocity for the ball to keep the circular motion occurs when the centripetal force is equal to the weight of the ball, and the tension in the string is zero; therefore:

T=0\\mg = m\frac{v^2}{R}

and re-arranging the equation, we find

v=\sqrt{gR}=\sqrt{(9.8 m/s^2)(1.1 m)}=3.3 m/s

The acceleration due to gravity on the Moon's surface is
Molodets [167]

Answer:

50 lb

Explanation:

Given,

The weight of astronaut's life support backpack on Earth (w) = 300 lb

Acceleration due to gravity on Earth (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Acceleration due to gravity on Moon = g'

g'=\frac{g}{6}

We know that weight of an object on Earth is,

w = m\times g

m = \frac{w}{g}

Similarly, weight on Moon will be

w' = m\times g'

w' = \frac{w}{g}\times\frac{g}{6}

w' = \frac{300}{6}

w' = 50

Thus the astronaut's life support backpack will weigh 50 lb on Moon.

Which law of motion accounts for the following statement?

I know that its not the second law. I'm almost positive its the first one. Please let me know if I'm wrong. This sentence makes no sense when you put it with the third law. So, the first law is my guess...
