nydimaria [60]

We know that the electric field is equal to 1 E 6 V/m

The distance between the thundercloud and the ground is 1.6km = 1600m

Electric field = Voltage/distance

This means that the breakdown voltage must be equal to

V = 1 E 6 V/m * 1600m = 1.6 E 9 V = 1.6 GV

Citrus2011 [14]

For the answer to the question above, so at the instant, the acceleration of the airplane is southward, the direction of the velocity is also southward. The direction should be the same because it is both a vector quantity and it does not make sense if the direction and acceleration have different direction.

The 20-g bullet is travelling at 400 m/s when it becomes embedded in the 2-kg stationary block. The coefficient of kinetic frict

nikklg [1K]

Answer:

The distance the block will slide before it stops is 3.3343 m

Explanation:

Given;

mass of bullet, m₁ = 20-g = 0.02 kg

speed of the bullet, u₁ = 400 m/s

mass of block, m₂ = 2-kg

coefficient of kinetic friction, μk = 0.24

Step 1:

Determine the speed of the bullet-block system:

From the principle of conservation of linear momentum;

m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = v(m₁ + m₂)

where;

v is the speed of the bullet-block system after collision

(0.02 x 400) + (2 x 0) = v (0.02 + 2)

8 = v (2.02)

v = 8/2.02

v = 3.9604 m/s

Step 2:

Determine the time required for the bullet-block system to stop

Apply the principle of conservation momentum of the system

$v(m_1+m_2) -F_kt = v_f(m_1 +m_2)\\\\v(m_1+m_2) -N \mu_kt = v_f(m_1 +m_2)\\\\v(m_1+m_2) -g(m_1 +m_2) \mu_kt = v_f(m_1 +m_2)\\\\3.9604(2.02)-9.8(2.02)0.24t = v_f(2.02)\\\\8 - 4.751t = 2.02v_f\\\\3.9604 - 2.352t = v_f$

when the system stops, vf = 0

3.9604 -2.352t = 0

2.352t = 3.9604

t = 3.9604/2.352

t = 1.684 s

Thus, time required for the system to stop is 1.684 s

Finally, determine the distance the block will slide before it stops

From kinematic, distance is the product of speed and time

$S = \int\limits {v} \, dt \\\\S = \int\limits^t_0 {(3.9604-2.352t)} \, dt\\\\ S = 3.9604t - 1.176t^2$

Now, recall that t = 1.684 s

S = 3.9604(1.684) - 1.176(1.684)²

S = 6.6693 - 3.3350

S = 3.3343 m

Thus, the distance the block will slide before it stops is 3.3343 m
