Answer:

The work done by the tree in stopping the bullet is 0.00294 J

Explanation:

To determine how much work done by the tree in stopping the bullet, we first determine the force of the bullet.

Force = mass x acceleration due to gravity

Force = 0.0025 x 9.8 = 0.0245 N

Work done = Force x distance

                  = 0.0245 x 0.12

                  = 0.00294 J

Therefore, the work done by the tree in stopping the bullet is 0.00294 J

Answer: Work done = 153.125Joules, Work done = 0.003Nm

Explanation:

Kinetic energy of a body is the energy possessed by a body by virtue of its motion.

Mathematically,

K.E = 1/2MV²

Where;

M = mass of the body = 2.5g = 0.0025kg

V = velocity of the body = 350m/s

Substituting this values in the formula, we have;

K.E = 1/2× 0.0025×350²

K.E = 153.125Joules

Work done is the force applied to body to cause it to move through a distance.

Work = Force × distance

Force = ma = 0.0025 × 10

Force = 0.025N

Distance = 12cm = 0.12m

Work = 0.025×0.12

Work = 0.003Nm

work done by the tree in stopping the bullet is 0.003N

Describe the relationship between the Law of Conservation of Matter and balancing equations.
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

The mass of the products and reactants are the same on both sides of the equation.

The number of atoms of products and reactants are equal and hence it proves the law of conservation of mass.

What do we have seasons on earth
Goryan [66]

Because the Earth's axis is not "straight up and down" as we move
around the sun. 

So when we're on one side of the sun, the top pole leans slightly toward
the sun.  During that time the sun shines more directly on the top half
of the Earth, and less directly on the bottom half.  The people on the
top half see the sun higher in the sky, and their weather is warmer,
while the people on the bottom half see the sun lower in the sky, and
their weather is cooler.

Then, when we're on the other side of the sun, the top pole leans slightly
away from the sun.  During that time the sun shines more directly on the
bottom half of the Earth, and less directly on the top half.  The people on
the bottom half see the sun higher in the sky, and their weather is warmer,
while the people on the top half see the sun lower in the sky, and their
weather is cooler.

The Earth makes the complete trip around the sun in one year, so the
people on the Earth go through this cycle of higher/lower sun and
warmer/cooler weather every year.

A Scooter travelling at 10m/s speed up to 20m/s in 4 sec.find the acceleration of scooter​
stira [4]

Answer:

2.5 m/s²

Explanation:

Given,

Initial speed ( u ) = 10 m/s

Final speed ( v ) = 20 m/s

Time ( t ) = 4 seconds

To find : Acceleration ( a ) = ?

Formula : -

a = ( v - u ) / t

a = ( 20 - 10 ) / 4

= 10 / 4

= 5 / 2

a = 2.5 m/s²

Therefore,

The acceleration of the scooter is 2.5 m/s²
