the shoulder by the rifle?
Answer in units of N.
mass of bullet= 0.0137 kg
velocity of bullet= 546 m/s to the right
mass of rifle= 3.82 kg

Answer:

F = 231.77N

Explanation:

Given the following data

Distance of Hunter's shoulder (d) = 3.16cm = 0.0316m

mass of bullet (m1) = 0.0137 kg

velocity of bullet (v1) = 546 m/s

mass of rifle(m2)= 3.82 kg

Velocity of rifle (V2) = 1.958167539 m/s

Momentum = MV

Momentum is conserved

Since we are looking for the force exerted on the shoulder by the rifle

Work done = Force × distance (F×d)

The rifle possessed kinetic energy = 1/2mV²

Therefore, work done = kinetic energy

F×d = 1/2mv²

F = 0.5mv²/d

By substitution we have

F = 0.5×3.82×1.9582²/0.0316

F = 7.324/0.0316

F = 231.77N

how many years would it take to reach the star from earth, as measured by observers on the spacecraft
Assoli18 [71]

In other words, it would take Deep Space 1 more than 81,000 years to travel the 4.24 light-years between Earth and Proxima Centauri at its top speed of 56,000 km/h. In relation to human history, that would be more than 2,700 generations.

Nearly 40 trillion kilometers, or 4.4 light-years, separate us from Alpha Centauri. The NASA-Germany Helios probes, the fastest spacecraft to date to be launched into orbit, flew at a speed of 250,000 kilometers per hour. The probes would need 18,000 years to travel at such pace to arrive at the sun's nearest neighbor. The calculations reveal that it is almost impossible to reach the nearest star in a human lifetime, even with the most futuristic technologies.

Please help on this one?
bezimeni [28]

Using the given equation you get:

E = 1.99x10^-25 / 9.0x10^-6

Divide 1.99 by 9.0: 1.99/9.0 = 0.22

For the scientific notation, when dividing subtract the two exponents:

25 -6 = 19

So you now have 0.22 x 10^-19

Now you need to change the 0.22 to be in scientific notation form:

2.2 x 10^-20

The answer is B.

What is the definition of visible white light wave (RoyGBive)
uranmaximum [27]

There's no such thing as a wave of white light.  Every light wave with
a certain wavelength has some color.  White light is a mixture of all
the different wavelengths with all of the different visible colors. 
They're ALL there in white light.  When they all enter your eye at
the same time, your brain gets the message of brightness with
no particular color, which we call "white light".

A man starts from rest and accelerates at 4.00 m/s2. If he covers a distance of 525 m, how long does he accelerate?
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

16.2 s

Explanation:

Given:

Δx = 525 m

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = 4.00 m/s²

Find: t

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

525 m = (0 m/s) t + ½ (4.00 m/s²) t²

t = 16.2 s
