Either no forces or a balanced group of forces
(not a group of "balanced forces"; there's no such thing)
Answer: B
EXPLANATION: the volume and temperature of the gas are directly proportional hence an increase in volume would lead to an increase in temperature and vice versa
As a wave moves through a medium, particles are displaced and return to their normal position after the wave passes.
Explanation:
A wave is a traveling disturbance that carries energy from one location to another. All waves move in straight lines outward and away from the source of a disturbance. Like the radiating circular ripples, the waves of water carry energy away from where a rock was dropped into the pond.
Waves can move as a single pulse or as a continuous series of waves, carrying energy away from its source. A pulse is a single disturbance, wave, or ripple that moves outward from the point of disturbance. A train of waves are many waves emitted over and over again from a single source.
As waves travel through matter, they will temporarily displace the molecules or particles in matter up-and-down or side-to-side. Waves move the energy but they do not carry the matter with them longitudinally as they move through matter. Once the disturbance passes, the medium will return to its original state or position.
Therefore, as the waves move through a medium, particles are displaced and return to their normal position after the wave passes.
Answer:
(a) 1.85 m/s
(b) 4.1 m/s
Explanation:
Data
- initial bullet velocity, Vbi = 837 m/s
- wooden block mass, Mw = 820 g
- initial wooden block velocity, Vwi = 0 m/s
- final bullet velocity, Vbf = 467 m/s
(a) From the conservation of momentum:
Mb*Vbi + Mw*Vwi = Mb*Vbf + Mw*Vwf
Mb*(Vbi - Vbf)/Mw = Vwf
4.1*(837 - 467)/820 = Vwf
Vwf = 1.85 m/s
(b) The speed of the center of mass speed is calculated as follows:
V = Mb/(Mb + Mw) * Vbi
V = 4.1/(4.1 + 820) * 837
V = 4.1 m/s
