Answer: Δθ = 127.4 K

Explanation: by using the law of conservation of energy, the kinetic energy of the bullet equals the heat energy on the plate.

Kinetic energy of bullet = mv²/2

Heat energy = mcΔθ

Where m = mass of bullet = 0.09kg, v = velocity of bullet = 182 m/s, c = specific heat capacity of lead bullet = 130 j/kgk

Δθ = change in temperature

mv²/2 = mcΔθ

With 'm' on both sides of the equation, they cancel out each other, hence we have that

v²/2 = cΔθ

v² = 2cΔθ

Δθ= v²/2c

Δθ = (182)²/2×130

Δθ = 33124/260

Δθ = 127.4 K

A block lies on a plane raised an angle θ from the horizontal. Three forces act upon the block: F⃗ w, the force of gravity; F⃗ n
Verdich [7]

Answer:

YFy = 0 = Ffsinθ + Fncosθ - Fw

Explanation:

From the base of the vector Fn, draw a vertical line. the small angle between this line and Fn is also theta. The component of Fn in the vertical direction is Fncos(theta).

Take a moment to picture extreme cases. Sine is 0 at 0 and 1 at 90. Cosine is 1 at 0 and 0 at 90.

The acceleration of gravity is -9.8 m/s2. A sling shot fires a rock straight up into the air with a speed of +39.2 m/s. 1. what
Vanyuwa [196]

Given that,

The acceleration of gravity is -9.8 m/s²

Initial velocity, u = 39.2 m/s

Time, t = 2 s

To find,

The final velocity of the shot.

Solution,

Let v is the final velocity of sling shot. Using first equation of motion to find it.

v = u +at

Here, a = -g

v = u-gt

v = (39.2)-(9.8)(2)

v = 19.6 m/s

So, its velocity after 2 seconds is 19.6 m/s.

Which switch configuration creates a short circuit?
lara31 [8.8K]
I think the answer would be Switch 1 open; switches 2, 3, and 4 closed. It is letter D. This will happen when there is a low resistance and a high circuit so from the choices above, when two bulbs are open and one bulb is close, so there is a low resistance and high voltage.
