To look for the acceleration, it will come from:

vf^2=v0^2+2ad 
where:
vf = final velocity = 0 
v0 = initial velocity =251 m/s 
a = acceleration 
d= distance traveled = 0.237 m 

0=251^2+2a(0.237 ) 
a= -251 ^2 / (2*0.237) =-132 913.502 m/s/s 

we find the force from: 

F = ma = 0.0115kg*(-1.32x10^5m/s/s) = -1518 N 

the negative sign shows that the force is in the direction contradictory the bullet's motion

Can somebody help me PLEASE I will mark Brainly and 10+ points

Answer:

3)solid, liquid,  gas

4)false

5)Our weight on moon is less than it would be on Earth due to a difference of the strength of gravity on the moon. The moon's gravitation force is determined by the mass and the size of the moon. ... This means that if you went to the moon you would weigh less, even though your mass stays the same

6)Physical changes are changes that do not alter the identity of a substance. Chemical changes are changes that occur when one substance is turned into another substance. Chemical changes are frequently harder to reverse than physical changes.

7)Try to be as accurate as possible with your measurements, and then subtract the former from the latter to find the mass of the object. This process is commonly referred to as "taring."

8) i think ductility but im not sure

9)If only the form of a substance changes, you have observed a physical change. A common physical change occurs when matter changes from one phase to another. When an ice cube melts for example, it becomes liquid water.

10)Oil floats on the surface because water is heavier than oil. Scientists say that water is more dense than oil. This is why the oil always stays in the top container.

An oxygen molecule is adsorbed onto a small patch of the surface of a catalyst. It's known that the molecule is adsorbed on of p
FromTheMoon [43]

The given question is incomplete. The complete question is as follows.

An oxygen molecule is adsorbed onto a small patch of the surface of a catalyst. It's known that the molecule is adsorbed on 1 of 36 possible sites for adsorption. Calculate the entropy of this system.

Explanation:

It is known that Boltzmann formula of entropy is as follows.

             s = k ln W

where,   k = Boltzmann constant

              W = number of energetically equivalent possible microstates or configuration of the system

In the given case, W = 36. Now, we will put the given values into the above formula as follows.

                  s = k ln W

                    = 1.38 \times 10^{-23} ln (36)        

                    = 4.945 \times 10^{-23} J/K

Thus, we can conclude that the entropy of this system is 4.945 \times 10^{-23} J/K.

molten iron fills a mould, which has a volume of 200 cm cubed. Calculate the volume when the iron cools and solidifies. Molten i
Arada [10]

As we know that mass of the iron will remain same in solid state as well as in molten state as per mass conservation theory

Now we can say

m_{initial} = m_{final}

since mass is the product of volume and density so we can say

V_i \rho_i = V_{final}\rho_{final}

now from above equation we have

(200 cm^3)(7 g/cm^3) = V_{final}(8 g/cm^3)

now by solving above equation we have

V_{final} = \frac{7}{8} (200 cm^3)

V_{final} = 175 cm^3

so final volume after it get solidify will become 175 cm^3
