A 12.0-g bullet is fired horizontally into a 109-g wooden block that is initially at rest on a frictionless horizontal surface a

nd connected to a spring having spring constant 152 N/m. The bullet becomes embedded in the block. If the bullet-block system compresses the spring by a maximum of 78.0 cm, what was the speed of the bullet at impact with the block?

Answer:

v₀ = 280.6 m / s

Explanation:

we have the shock between the bullet and the block that we can work with at the moment and another part where the assembly (bullet + block) compresses a spring, which we can work with mechanical energy,

We write the mechanical energy when the shock has passed the bodies

   Em₀ = K = ½ (m + M) v²

We write the mechanical energy when the spring is in maximum compression

Em_{f} = K_{e} \\= \frac{1}{2} kx^2\\    Em_0 = Em_{f}

½ (m + M) v² = ½ k x²

Let's calculate the system speed

   v = √ [k x² / (m + M)]

   v = √[152 ×0.78² / (0.012 +0.109) ]

   v = 27.65 m / s

This is the speed of the bullet + Block system

Now let's use the moment to solve the shock

Before the crash

   p₀ = m v₀

After the crash

p_{f} = (m + M) v

The system is formed by the bullet and block assembly, so the forces during the crash are internal and the moment is preserved

 p_0 =  p_{f}

  m v₀ = (m + M) v

  v₀ = v (m + M) / m

let's calculate

v₀ = 27.83 (0.012 +0.109) /0.012

  v₀ = 280.6 m / s

Kepler's____ of planetary motion states that the planets have an elliptical orbit, with the Sun at one focal point of the ellips
Evgen [1.6K]

Kepler's laws were enunciated to model in a mathematical way the movement of the planets in their respective orbits around the Sun.

There are three laws of Kepler.

In particular, Kepler's first law states the following:

"All the planets move around the Sun describing elliptical orbits, the Sun is in one of the foci of the ellipse."

Answer:

Kepler's 1st law of planetary motion states that the planets have an elliptical orbit, with the Sun at one focal point of the ellipse.

I'll give brainlest
musickatia [10]

Answer:

The mouse exerts a force on the ground and the ground exerts an equal and opposite reaction force on the mouse.

At point B, Alberto's distance covered increases with time, equal distance is covered in equal time interval. The speed increases uniformly. At the point C to D, the distance covered with time remains the same. At the point D, equal distance is no longer covered in equal time intervals.

According to the law of inertia, an object will remain at rest or in a state of uniform motion unless it is acted upon by an unbalanced force. This means that smokey mouse will continue moving uniformly unless a force acts on it.

From Newton's second law; F = ma and a = F/m. F = force , m= mass, a = acceleration. This implies that smokey mouse can increase its speed by;

Increasing the force acting on the mouse

Decreasing the mass of the mouse

Action and reaction is encountered as the mouse is walking. The mouse exerts a force on the ground and the ground exerts an equal and opposite reaction force on the mouse.

Problem 02.061 For the given circuit, assume vS = 10 V, R1 = 9 Ω, R2 = 4 Ω, R3 = 4 Ω, R4 = 5 Ω, and R5 = 4 Ω. Reference Book &am
stich3 [128]

Answer:

Ws=8.75 Watts

Explanation:

As per fig. of prob 02.061, it is clear that R5 and R4 are in parallel, its equivalent Resistance will be:

\frac{1}{Req45}=\frac{1}{R4}+\frac{1}{R5}

\frac{1}{Req45}=\frac{1}{5}+\frac{1}{4}

\frac{1}{Req45}=0.2+0.25=0.45\\ Req45=2.22

Now, this equivalent Req45 is in series with R3, therefore:

Req345=R3+Req45\\Req345=4+2.22\\Req345=6.22

This Req345 is in parallel with R2, i.e

Req2345=(R2^{-1}+Req345^{-1}  )^{-1}\\ Req2345=(4^{-1}+6.22^{-1}  )^{-1} \\Req2345=2.43

Now this gets in series with R1:

Req12345=R1+Req2345\\Req12345=9+2.43\\Req12345=11.43

Now, the power delivered Ws is:

Ws=Vs*I=\frac{Vs^{2}}{Req}  \\Ws=\frac{10^{2} }{11.43} \\Ws=8.75 Watts
