The energy of a compressed (or stretched) spring is given by

$E= \frac{1}{2} k x^{2}$

This gives

$E= \frac{1}{2}80* 0.2^{2} =1.6J$

A 6.99-g bullet is moving horizontally with a velocity of +341 m/s, where the sign + indicates that it is moving to the right (s

Ratling [72]

Answer:

a). 1.218 m/s

b). R=2.8 $^{-3}$

Explanation:

$m_{bullet}=6.99g*\frac{1kg}{1000g}=6.99x10^{-3}kg$

$v_{bullet}=341\frac{m}{s}$

Momentum of the motion the first part of the motion have a momentum that is:

$P_{1}=m_{bullet}*v_{bullet}$

$P_{1}=6.99x10^{-3}kg*341\frac{m}{s} \\P_{1}=2.3529$

The final momentum is the motion before the action so:

a).

$P_{2}=m_{b1}*v_{fbullet}+(m_{b2}+m_{bullet})*v_{f}}$

$P_{2}=1.202 kg*0.554\frac{m}{s}+(1.523kg+6.99x10^{-3}kg)*v_{f}$

$P_{1}=P_{2}$

$2.529=0.665+(1.5299)*v_{f}\\v_{f}=\frac{1.864}{1.5299}\\v_{f}=1.218 \frac{m}{s}$

b).

kinetic energy

$K=\frac{1}{2}*m*(v)^{2}$

Kinetic energy after

$Ka=\frac{1}{2}*1.202*(0.554)^{2}+\frac{1}{2}*1.523*(1.218)^{2}\\Ka=1.142 J$

Kinetic energy before

$Kb=\frac{1}{2}*mb*(vf)^{2}\\Kb=\frac{1}{2}*6.99x10^{-3}kg*(341)^{2}\\Kb=406.4J$

Ratio = $\frac{Ka}{Kb}$

$R=\frac{1.14}{406.4}\\R=2.8x10^{-3}$

A parallel-plate vacuum capacitor has 7.72 J of energy stored in it. The separation between the plates is 3.30 mm. If the separa

maxonik [38]

Answer

3.340J

Explanation;

Using the relation. Energy stored in capacitor = U = 7.72 J

U =(1/2)CV^2

C =(eo)A/d

C*d=(eo)A=constant

C2d2=C1d1

C2=C1d1/d2

The separation between the plates is 3.30mm . The separation is decreased to 1.45 mm.

Initial separation between the plates =d1= 3.30mm .

Final separation = d2 = 1.45 mm

(A) if the capacitor was disconnected from the potential source before the separation of the plates was changed, charge 'q' remains same

Energy=U =(1/2)q^2/C

U2C2 = U1C1

U2 =U1C1 /C2

U2 =U1d2/d1

Final energy = Uf = initial energy *d2/d1

Final energy = Uf =7.72*1.45/3.30

(A) Final energy = Uf = 3.340J
