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

Physics

Mazyrski [523]3 years ago

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 has a higher acceleration:a 10kg object acted upon with a net force of 20N or an 18kg object acted on by a net force of 20
MA_775_DIABLO [31]
<span>Answer: The acceleration of 10 kg object is greater than that of 18 kg object.

Explanation:
According to Newton's Second law:
F = ma --- (A)

Let's find the acceleration for both 10 kg and 18 kg objects!
The net force on both of these masses = F = 20N

(1) Acceleration of 10 kg object
Mass = m = 10 kg
Plug in the values in equation (A):
20 = 10 * a
Acceleration = a = 2 m/s^2

(2) Acceleration of 18 kg object
Mass = m = 18 kg
Plug in the values in equation (A):

20 = 18 * a
Acceleration = a = 1.11 m/s^2


2 > 1.11; therefore, 10 kg object has the higher acceleration compared to the acceleration of the 18 kg object.</span>

A circuit contains four capacitors in parallel (10 F, 3 F, 7 F, and 1 F). What is the equivalent capacitance of this circuit?
Oxana [17]

The equivalent capacitance (C_{eq}) of an electrical circuit containing four capacitors which are connected in parallel is equal to: A. 21 F.

<h3>The types of circuit.</h3>

Basically, the components of an electrical circuit can be connected or arranged in two forms and these are;

  • Series circuit
  • Parallel circuit

<h3>What is a parallel circuit?</h3>

A parallel circuit can be defined as an electrical circuit with the same potential difference (voltage) across its terminals. This ultimately implies that, the equivalent capacitance (C_{eq}) of two (2) capacitors which are connected in parallel is equal to the sum of the individual (each) capacitances.

Mathematically, the equivalent capacitance (C_{eq}) of an electrical circuit containing four capacitors which are connected in parallel is given by this formula:

Ceq = C₁ + C₂ + C₃ + C₄

Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;

Ceq = 10 F + 3 F + 7 F + 1 F

Equivalent capacitance, Ceq = 21 F.

What happens to air pressure as altitude decreases
Ksivusya [100]
Pressure decreases with increasing altitude. The pressure at any level in the atmosphere may be interpreted as the total weight of the air above a unit area at any elevation. At higher elevations, there are fewer air molecules above a given surface than a similar surface at lower levels.
