Answer:

The recoil velocity is 0.354 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of hunter = 70 kg

Mass of bullet = 42 g = 0.042 kg

Speed of bullet = 590 m/s

We need to calculate the recoil speed of hunter

Using conservation of momentum

m_{1}u_{1}+m_{2}u_{2}=m_{1}v_{1}+m_{2}v_{2}

Where,m_{1} = mass of hunter

m_{2} = mass of bullet

u = initial velocity

v = recoil velocity

Put the value in the equation

0+0=70\times v_{1}+0.042\times590

v_{1}=-\dfrac{0.042\times590}{70}

v=-0.354\ m/s

Hence, The recoil velocity is 0.354 m/s.

With the same block-spring system from above, imagine doubling the displacement of the block to start the motion. By what factor
Fofino [41]

Answer:

A)     K / K₀ = 4   b)     v / v₀ = 4

Explanation:

A) For this exercise we can use the conservation of mechanical energy

in the problem it indicates that the displacement was doubled (x = 2xo)

starting point. At the position of maximum displacement

      Em₀ = Ke = ½ k (2x₀)²

final point. In the equilibrium position

      Em_{f} = K = ½ m v²

        Em₀ = Em_{f}

        ½ k 4 x₀² = K

        (½ K x₀²) = K₀

         K = 4 K₀

          K / K₀ = 4

B) the speed value

          ½ k 4 x₀² = ½ m v²

          v = 4 (k / m) x₀

if we call

           v₀ = k / m x₀

          v = 4 v₀

         v / v₀ = 4

An artist working on a piece of metal in his forging studio plunges the hot metal into oil in order to harden it. The metal piec
lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

The temperature of the metal is  T_m  =  376.8 ^o C

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The mass of the metal is  M =  60 \ kg

     The specific heat of the metal is  c_p  =  0.1027 kcal/(kg \cdot ^oC)

       The mass of the oil is M_o  =  810 \ kg

       The temperature of the oil is  T_o  =  35^oC

       The specific heat of oil is  c_o  =  0.7167 kcal/(kg \cdot ^oC )

       The equilibrium temperature is T_e  =  39 ^oC

According to the law of energy conservation

     Heat lost by metal  =  heat gained by the oil

So  

   The quantity  of heat lost by the metal is mathematically represented as

               Q =  - Mc_p \Delta T

=>            Q =  -Mc_p (T_m  -  T_c)

Where T_ m  the temperature of metal before immersion

The negative sign show heat lost

The quantity  of gained t by the metal is mathematically represented as      

           Q =  M_o c_o \Delta T

=>        Q =  M_o c_o (T_c - T_o)

So  

         Mc_p (T_m  -  T_c)   =   M_o c_o (T_c - T_o)

substituting values

          - 60 * 0.1027 (T_m  - 39)   =   810 * 0.7167 *  (39 - 35)

=>       T_m  =  376.8 ^o C

Astronauts use a centrifuge to simulate the acceleration of a rocket launch. The centrifuge takes 40.0 s to speed up from rest t
Vinvika [58]

Answer

Time period T = 1.50 s

time t = 40 s

r = 6.2 m

a)

Angular speed ω = 2π/T

                              = \dfrac{2\pi }{1.5}  

                              = 4.189 rad/s

Angular acceleration α = \dfrac{\omega}{t}

                                      = \dfrac{4.189}{40}

                                      = 0.105 rad/s²

Tangential acceleration a = r α = 6.2 x 0.105 = 0.651 m/s²

b)The maximum speed.

       v = 2πr/T

          = \dfrac{2\pi \times 6.2}{1.5}

          = 25.97 m/s

So centripetal acceleration.

        a = \dfrac{v^2}{r}

          = \dfrac{25.97^2}{6.2}

          =  108.781 m/s^2

          = 11.1 g    

in combination with the gravitation acceleration.

a_{total} = \sqrt{(11.1g)^2+g^2}

a_{total}= 11.145 g
