Answer:

a) v=1.81 m/s; B) v=4.95 m/s

Explanation:

using momentum conservation

m1v1+m2v1=m1v2+m2v2

A)

5.2*672+700*0=5.2*428+700v2

The initial velocity of the block is 0, solving for v2

v2=1.81 m/s

B) Now both the bullet and the block travel together

m1v1+m2v1=(m1+m2)v2

5.2*672+700*0=(5.2+700)v

v=4.95 m/s

What property do the following elements have in common? Li, C, and F A) They are poor conductors of electricity. B) Each element
Aloiza [94]

Answer: Option (D) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The given elements Li, C and F are all second period elements. So, when we move from left to right across a period then there occurs increase in number of valence electrons as there occurs increase in total number of electrons.

So, it means more electrons are added to the same energy level.

Thus, we can conclude that a property of valence electrons for each element is located in the same energy level is common in the given elements.

To the nearest square foot, how many square feet are there in an area of 4.4 square meters?
vichka [17]

Answer:

    4.4 square meters = 47 square foot

Explanation:

We have

    1 meter = 3.28084 foot

    1 square meter = 3.28084 x 3.28084 square foot = 10.76 square foot

    4.4 square meters = 4.4 x 10.76 = 47.36 square foot = 47 square foot

    4.4 square meters = 47 square foot

A 1000.kg car moving at north at 100. km/hr brakes to a stop in 50. m within a uniform acceleration. what are magnitude and dire
Marianna [84]

Answer:

Force=7.71KN in the opposite direction

Explanation:

Given the mass of the car(M)=1000Kg

The initial speed of the car(u)=100km/hr

we know that 1km/hr=5/18 m/sec

100km/hr=100*5/18 m/sec=27.77m/sec

the distance travelled before it stops (s)=50m

let the acceleration of the car be a

The final velocity of the car is 0.

we know that  v^{2}-u^{2}=2as

0^{2}-27.77^{2}=2(-a)(50)

a=7.712m/sec^{2}

We know that F=Ma

F=1000* 7.712=7712N=7.71KN
