Here if we consider bullet and gun as a system then we can say that momentum of the system will remain conserved

so we will have

$m_1v_{1i} + m_2v_{2i} = m_1v_{1f} + m_2v_{2f}$

now we know that

$m_1 = 50 g = 0.050 kg$

$m_2 = 3 kg$

$v_{1i} = v_{2i} = 0$

$v_{1f} = 400 m/s$

now we will have

$0.050(0) + 3(0) = 0.050(400) + 3(v)$

$20 + 3v = 0$

$v = - \frac{20}{3} = - 6.67 m/s$

so gun will recoil with speed 6.67 m/s

Which of the following is a false statement about dispersion forces? View Available Hint(s) Which of the following is a false st

icang [17]

Explanation :

Dispersion forces are also known as London dispersion forces. It is the weakest force. Also, it is the part of the Van der Waals forces.

(1) This force is exhibited by all atoms and molecules.

(2) These forces are the result of the fluctuations in the electron distribution within molecules or atoms. Due to these fluctuations, the electric field is created. The magnitude of this force is explained in terms of Hamaker constant 'A'.

(3) Dispersion forces result from the formation of instantaneous dipoles in a molecule or atom. When electrons are more concentrated in a place, instantaneous dipoles formed.

(4) Dispersion force magnitude depends on the amount of surface area available for interactions. If the area increases, the size of the atom also increase. As a result, stronger dispersion forces.

So, the false statement is "Dispersion forces always have a greater magnitude in molecules with a greater molar mass".

Calculate the electric field at the center of a square

pantera1 [17]

Answer:

$E_y=1175510.2\ N.C^{-1}$

The Magnitude of electric field is in the upward direction as shown directly towards the charge $q_1$ .

Explanation:

Given:

side of a square, $a=52.5\ cm$

charge on one corner of the square, $q_1=+45\times 10^{-6}\ C$

charge on the remaining 3 corners of the square, $q_2=q_3=q_4=-27\times 10^{-6}\ C$

Distance of the center from each corners $=\frac{1}{2} \times diagonals$

$diagonal=\sqrt{52.5^2+52.5^2}$

$diagonal=74.25\cm=0.7425\ m$

∴Distance of center from corners, $b=0.3712\ m$

Now, electric field due to charges is given as:

$E=\frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}\times \frac{q}{b^2}$

For charge $q_1$ we have the field lines emerging out of the charge since it is positively charged:

$E_1=9\times 10^9\times \frac{45\times 10^{-6}}{0.3712^2}$

$E_1=2938775.5\ N.C^{-1}$

Force by each of the charges at the remaining corners:

$E_2=E_3=E_4=9\times 10^9\times \frac{27\times 10^{-6}}{0.3712^2}$

$E_2=E_3=E_4=1763265.3\ N.C^{-1}$

Now, net electric field in the vertical direction:

$E_y=E_1-E_4$

$E_y=1175510.2\ N.C^{-1}$

Now, net electric field in the horizontal direction:

$E_y=E_2-E_3$

$E_y=0\ N.C^{-1}$

So the Magnitude of electric field is in the upward direction as shown directly towards the charge $q_1$ .

the idling engines of a landing turbojet produce forward thrust when operating in a normal manner, but they can produce reverse

Finger [1]

Forward thrust has positive values and reverse thrust has negative values.

Thrust is a sudden push or pull in a certain direction.

Flight speed u = 150 km/h

1 km/h = $\frac{1}{3.6}$ km/s

therefore, 150 km/h = 41.67 km / s

The thrust force represents the horizontal or x-component of momentum equation:

$T = m_{exhaust} * U_{exhaust} - U_{flight}$

T = 50 * (150 - 41.67)

T = 5416.67 N

Therefore, the value of forward thrust is 5416.67 N.

Now the exhaust velocity is now vertical due to reverse thrust application, then it has a zero horizontal component,

thus thrust equation is:

$T = m_{exhaust} * U_{exhaust} - U_{flight}$

T = 50 * (0 - 41.67)

T = -2083.5 N

Therefore, the thrust force T is -2083.5 N in the reverse direction.

Now the exhaust velocity and flight velocity is zero, then it has a zero horizontal component, thus thrust is also zero because $U_{exhaust} = U_{flight} = 0\\$

T = 0

Therefore, there is no difference in two velocities in x direction.

The given question is incomplete, the complete question is,

"The idling engines of a landing turbojet produce forward thrust when operating in a normal manner, but they can produce reverse thrust if the jet is properly deflected. Suppose that while the aircraft rolls down the runway at 150 km/h the idling engine consumes air at 50 kg/s and produces an exhaust velocity of 150 m/s.

a. What is the forward thrust of this engine?

b. What are the magnitude and direction (i.e., forward or reverse) if the exhaust is deflected 90 degree without affecting the mass flow?

c. What are the magnitude and direction of the thrust (forward or reverse) after the plane has come to a stop, with 90 degree exhaust deflection and an airflow of 40 kg/s?"
