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.

Indigenous people sometimes cooked in watertight baskets by placing enough hot rocks into the water to bring it to a boil. What
yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

The rock has a mass of 4.02 kg

Explanation:

<u>Step 1: </u>Data given

Mass of the rock = TO BE DETERMINED

Temperature of the rock = 500 °C

Mass of the water  =4.24 kg

⇒ loses 0.044kg as vapor

Initial temperature of the water = 29°C

Final temperature = 100°C

Specific heat of rock = 0.20 kcal/kg °C

Specific heat of water = 1kcal/kg°C

Latent heat of vaporization = 539 kcal/kg

<u>Step 2:</u> formules

Qlost,rock + Qgained,water = 0

Qtotal,water = Qwater +Qvapor

<u>Step 3: </u>Calculate Qvapor

Qvapor = mass of vapor * Latent heat of vapor

Qvapor = 0.044kg * 539 kcal/kg = 23.716 kcal

<u>Step 4: </u>Calculate Qwater

Qwater = mass of water * specific heat * Δtemperature

Qwater = 4.196 kg * 1kcal/kg°C *( 100-29)

Qwater = 297.916 kcal

<u>Step 5:</u> Calculate Qwater,total

Qwater,total = Qwater + Qvapor

Qwater,total = 23.716 kcal + 297.916 = 321.632 kcal

<u>Step 6</u>: Calculate Qrock

Qrock = mass of rock * specific heat rock * Δtemperature

Qrock = mass of rock * 0.20 kcal/kg°C * (100-500)

Qrock = mass of rock * -80 kcal/kg

<u>Step 7:</u> Calculate mass of rock

Qlost,rock + Qgained,water = 0

Qlost,rock = -Qgained,water

mass of rock * -80 kcal/kg = -321.632 kcal

mass of rock = 4.02 kg

The rock has a mass of 4.02 kg

Blocks A and B are identical metal blocks. Initially block A is neutral, and block B has a net charge of 7.0 nC. Using insulatin
maxonik [38]

Answer:

Block A will have a final charge of 3.5nC.

Explanation:

This is because at the point of contact with Block B, which is electrically positive, the electrons in Block A will be attracted to the excess 'unpaired' protons in block B. Hence, the electrons will flow into Block B causing unpaired protons to remain in Block A.

This process is called Charging by Conduction.

This charging process will continue until the charges are evenly distributed between both objects.

In case you're wondering, "<em>how's all this possible within a few seconds</em>?", remember that electrons travel very fast and so, this process is a rather rapid one.
