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

GalinKa [24]

Answer:

As a type of thermal power station, a coal-fired power station converts chemical energy stored in coal successively into thermal energy, mechanical energy and, finally, electrical energy. The coal is usually pulverized and then burned in a pulverized coal-fired boiler.Coal-fired plants produce electricity by burning coal in a boiler to produce steam. The steam produced, under tremendous pressure, flows into a turbine, which spins a generator to create electricity.

A wire that is 0.65 m long and carrying a current of 8.2 A is at right angles to a uniform magnetic field. The force on the wire
Luda [366]

Answer:

0.075 T

Explanation:

When a current-carrying wire is immersed in a region with magnetic field, the wire experiences a force, given by

F=ILB sin \theta

where

I is the current in the wire

L is the length of the wire

B is the strength of the magnetic field

\theta is the angle between the direction of I and B

In this problem we have:

L = 0.65 m is the length of the wire

I = 8.2 A is the current in the wire

F = 0.40 N is the force experienced by the wire

\theta=90^{\circ} since the current is at right angle with the magnetic field

Solving the formula for B, we find the strength of the magnetic field:

B=\frac{F}{IL sin \theta}=\frac{0.40}{(8.2)(0.65)(sin 90^{\circ})}=0.075 T

O How are electricity and magnetism related?
Nataly [62]
Magnetism is the product of a moving charged particle. We can have electricity without magnetism but we can not have magnetism without electricity.An electro magnet is made so that we have a soft metal core and electricity around it. A bar magnet is a normal magnet in bar shape with permanent magnetism.

Suppose a person pushes thumbtack that is 1/5 centimeter long into a bulletin board, and the force (in dynes) exerted when the d
mario62 [17]

Answer:

W = 290.7 dynes*cm

Explanation:

d = 1/5 cm = 0.2 cm

The force is in function of the depth x:

F(x) = 1000 * (1 + 2*x)^2

We can expand that as:

F(x) = 1000 * (1 + 4*x + 4x^2)

F(x) = 1000 + 4000*x + 4000*x^2

Work is defined as

W = F * d

Since we have non constant force we integrate

W = \int\limits^{0.2}_{0} {(1000 + 4000*x + 4000*x^2)} \, dx

W = [1000*x + 2000*x^2 + 1333*X^3] evaluated between 0 and 0.2

W = 1000*0.2 + 2000*0.2^2 + 1333*0.2^3 - 1000*0 - 2000*0^2 - 1333*0^3

W = 200 + 80 + 10.7 = 290.7 dynes*cm
