The speed of a bullet as it travels down the barrel of a rifle toward the opening is given by the expression v = (-5.15 multipli

ed by 107) t2 + (2.30 multiplied by 105) t, where v is in meters per second and t is in seconds. The acceleration of the bullet just as it leaves the barrel is zero.
(b) Determine the length of time the bullet is accelerated.

(c) Find the speed at which the bullet leaves the barrel.

(d) What is the length of the barrel?

I'm assuming you're in calculus based physics. I apologize if otherwise. Let's come up with equations for distance and acceleration as functions of time. From the definition of acceleration we know that<span>a=<span><span>dv</span><span>dt</span></span></span>Taking the derivative of v with respect to t yields<span>a=<span><span>dv</span><span>dt</span></span>=(−5.15∗107)∗2∗t+(2.30∗105)</span> From the definition of distance, we know that <span>v=<span><span>dx</span><span>dt</span></span>→dx=vdt</span>Integrating velocity yields<span>x=(−5.15∗107)∗<span>(<span><span>t3</span>3</span>)</span>+(2.30∗105)∗<span>(<span><span>t2</span>2</span>)</span>+<span>x0</span></span> where <span>x0</span> is the starting position. If acceleration is zero when the bullet leaves the barrel, we can use our equation for acceleration to determine the time the bullet is in the barrel. This is seen as<span>0=(−5.15∗107)∗2∗t+(2.30∗105)→t=<span><span>−(2.30∗105)</span><span>(−5.15∗107)</span></span></span> Knowing time, we can solve for the velocity as the bullet leaves the barrel by plugging time back into our given equation for velocity. The length of the barrel can be solved by plugging time back into our equation for distance and setting <span><span>x0</span>=0</span><span>.</span>

When a man returns to his well-sealed house on a summer day, he finds that the house is at 35°C. He turns on the air conditioner
Paul [167]

Answer:

1353.38 Watt

Explanation:

T₁ = Initial temperature of the house = 35°C

T₂ = Final temperature of the house = 20°C

Δt = Time taken to cool the house = 38 min = 38×60 = 2280 s

m = mass of air in the house = 800 kg

Cv = Specific heat at constant volume = 0.72 kJ/kgK

Cp = Specific heat at constant pressure = 1.0 kJ/kgK

Heat removed

q = mCvΔT

⇒q = 800×720×(35-20)

⇒q = 8640000 J

Average rate of hear removal

Q=\frac{q}{\Delta t}\\\Rightarrow Q=\frac{8640000}{2280}\\\Rightarrow Q=3789.47\ W

COP=\frac{Q}{W}\\\Rightarrow W=\frac{Q}{COP}\\\Rightarrow W=\frac{3789.47}{2.8}\\\Rightarrow W=1353.38\ W

∴ Power drawn by the air conditioner is 1353.38 Watt

The inner planets formed:
Ivan

Answer:

a. by collisions and mergers of planetesimals.

Explanation:

Inner planets are planets within 1.5 AU distance from the sun. These are called terrestrial planets because they are somewhat similar to Earth, mainly made of rocks.

The main ingredient of these planets are solar nebula and interstellar dust condensation of which leads to formation of small rock particles. These particles come close to each other under in the influence of gravity and other forces. As the mass of the particles increase they form planetesimals, these planetesimals eventually merge to form planets.
