<span>0.52% First, let's convert that speed into m/s. 150 km/h * 1000 m/km / 3600 s/h = 41.667 m/s Now let's see how much time gravity has to work on the ball. Divide the distance by the speed. 18 m / 41.667 m/s = 0.431996544 s Now multiply that time by the gravitational acceleration to see what the vertical component to the ball's speed that gravity adds. 0.431996544 s * 9.8 m/s^2 = 4.233566131 m/s Use the pythagorean theorem to get the new velocity of the ball. sqrt(41.667^2 + 4.234^2) = 41.882 m/s Finally, let's see what the difference is (41.882 - 41.667)/41.667 = 0.005159959 = 0.5159959% Rounding to 2 figures, gives 0.52%</span>

The barrel of a rifle has a length of 0.855 m. A bullet leaves the muzzle of a rifle with a speed of 553 m/s. What is the accele
Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

Acceleration of the bullet will be 1778835.6 m/sec^2      

Explanation:

We have given length of the barrel refile s= 0.855 m

When the bullet leaves the muzzle its velocity is 553 m/sec

So final velocity v = 553 m/sec

Initial velocity will be 0 that is u = 0 m/sec

According to third equation of motion v^2=u^2+2as

553^2=0^2+2\times a\times 0.855

a=178835.6m/sec^2

A car with a mass of 1,500 kg is traveling at a speed of 30 m/s. What force must be applied to stop the car in 3 seconds?​
QveST [7]

Explanation:

F = ma

F = m Δv / Δt

F = (1500 kg) (0 m/s − 30 m/s) / 3 s

F = -15,000 N
