How is shooting a shotgun related to newtons third law ? why does a rifle have less “kick” then a shotgun ?

1 answer:

5 0

Newton’s third law is a force is a push or pull that acts upon an object as a result of another object.. A shot gun when fired pulls back when a force (you pulling the trigger) is acted upon it. This is how it relates. A rifle has less kick than a shot gun because the rifle is smaller and has less of a force than a shot gun.

Which example has the least kinetic energy

Stells [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let’s calculate the kinetic energy for all of the choices.

a. (1/2)(100)(100)^2 = 50(10000)=500,000

b. (1/2)(100)(1)^2 = 50

c. (1/2)(10)(100)^2 = 5(10000) = 50,000

d. (1/2)(1)(1)^2 = 0.5

We can see that (d) has the least kinetic energy.

It takes a minimum distance of 76.50 m to stop a car moving at 15.0 m/s by applying the brakes (without locking the wheels). Ass

Vinvika [58]

The minimum stopping distance when the car is moving at 32.0 m/s is 348.3 m.

<h3>Acceleration of the car </h3>

The acceleration of the car before stopping at the given distance is calculated as follows;

v² = u² + 2as

when the car stops, v = 0

0 = u² + 2as

0 = 15² + 2(76.5)a

0 = 225 + 153a

-a = 225/153

a = - 1.47 m/s²

<h3>Distance traveled when the speed is 32 m/s</h3>

If the same force is applied, then acceleration is constant.

v² = u² + 2as

0 = 32² + 2(-1.47)s

2.94s = 1024

s = 348.3 m

A car has a mass of 1,200 kg. What is its acceleration when the engine exerts a force of 600 N? (Formula: F=ma)

Rasek [7]

Answer:

Option (a)

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of a car, m = 1200 kg

Force exerted by the engine, F = 600 N

Noe force,F = ma

a is the acceleration of the engine

$a=\dfrac{F}{m}\\\\a=\dfrac{600\ N}{1200\ kg}\\\\a=0.5\ m/s^2$

So, the acceleration of the car is 0.5 m/s².

You are standing on a sidewalk. There is a car in the distance. The horn on the car sounds. You hear it at a pitch that correspo

AnnyKZ [126]

Answer: The answer: The car is moving away from you.

Both A and C are true as Car can be moving in line away from you or has component of velocity in opposite direction.

Explanation:The decrease in the frequency of the sound is the result of Doppler's effect. A/c to Doppler's effect the frequency of received sound of source is changed if it is moving relative to the receiver, i.e. the distance between them is changing due to motion.

The general formula of Doppler's Effect is attached as the picture.

In this formula v_D is the velocity of Detector i.e the receiver relative to wind. While v_s is the velocity of source relative to wind and v is the velocity of sound.

The Doppler's effect is not effected by the velocity of wind as the wind itself could not change the distance between the two objects i.e. you and the car. Wind velocity can change the speed of sound and its wavelength but the change does not effect the frequency.

Hence if we assume the car to be moving with velocity v_c and you are stationary

$f'=f_s*\frac{v}{v-v_c}$

hence the frequency is reduced.
