A person fires a 38 gram bullet straight up into the air. It rises, then falls straight back down, striking the ground with a sp

eed of 345 m/s. The bullet embeds itself into the ground a distance of 8.9 cm before coming to a stop. What force does the ground exert on the bullet? Express your answer in newtons.

Answer:

Force exerted = 25.41 kN

Explanation:

We have equation of motion

      v² = u²+2as

u = 345 m/s, s = 8.9 cm = 0.089 m, v = 0 m/s

     0² = 345²+2 x a x 0.089

       a = -668679.78 m/s²

Force exerted = Mass x Acceleration

Mass of bullet = 38 g = 0.038 kg

Acceleration = 668679.78 m/s²

Force exerted = 25409.83 N = 25.41 kN

Ahat [919]

The question is incomplete. The complete question is :

Two loudspeakers are placed 1.8 m apart. They play tones of equal frequency. If you stand 3.0 m in front of the speakers, and exactly between them, you hear a minimum of intensity. As you walk parallel to the plane of the speakers, staying 3.0 m away, the sound intensity increases until reaching a maximum when you are directly in front of one of the speakers. The speed of sound in the room is 340 m/s.

What is the frequency of the sound?

Solution :

Given :

The distance between the two loud speakers, d = 1.8 \ m

The speaker are in phase and so the path difference is zero constructive interference occurs.

At the point D, the speakers are out of phase and so the path difference is $=\frac{\lambda}{2}$

Therefore,

$AD-BD = \frac{\lambda}{2}

$\sqrt{(1.8)^2+(3)^2-3} =\frac{\lambda}{2}$

$\lambda = 2 \times 0.4985$

$\lambda = 0.99714 \ m$

Thus the frequency is :

$f=\frac{v}{\lambda}$

$f=\frac{340}{0.99714}$

f=340.9744 Hz

What are the products of linear electron flow during the light reactions of photosynthesis?
Katena32 [7]

Answer:

NADPH and ATP

Explanation:

In the clear stage the light that "hits" chlorophyll excites an electron to a higher energy level. In a series of reactions, energy is converted (throughout an electron transport process) into ATP and NADPH. Water breaks down in the process releasing oxygen as a secondary product of the reaction. ATP and NADPH are used to make the C-C bonds in the dark stage.

Photophosphorylation is the process of converting the energy of the electron excited by light into a pyrophosphate bond of an ADP molecule. This occurs when water electrons are excited by light in the presence of P680. The energy transfer is similar to the chemosmotic electron transport that occurs in the mitochondria.

Light energy causes the removal of an electron from a P680 molecule that is part of Photosystem II, the electron is transferred to an acceptor molecule (primary acceptor), and then passes downhill to Photosystem I through a conveyor chain of electrons The P680 requires an electron that is taken from the water by breaking it into H + ions and O-2 ions. These O-2 ions combine to form O2 that is released into the atmosphere.

The light acts on the P700 molecule of Photosystem I, causing an electron to be raised to a higher potential. This electron is accepted by a primary acceptor (different from the one associated with Photosystem II).

The electron goes through a series of redox reactions again, and finally combines with NADP + and H + to form NADPH, a carrier of H needed in the independent phase of light.

Electron of photosystem II replaces the excited electron of the P700 molecule.

There is therefore a continuous flow of electrons (non-cyclic) from water to NADPH, which is used for carbon fixation.

Cyclic electron flow occurs in some eukaryotes and in photosynthetic bacteria. NADPH does not occur, only ATP. This also occurs when the cell requires additional ATP, or when there is no NADP + to reduce it to NADPH.

In Photosystem II, the "pumping" of H ions into the thylakoids (from the stroma of the chloroplast) and the conversion of ADP + P to ATP is motorized by an electron gradient established in the thylakoid membrane.

Sally goes on a hike. The distance she walks compared to the amount of time she walks is shown on the graph. Which statement is
Neko [114]
According to the task there should be the graph that supports Sally's hike, but after looking on the options it seems that Sally doesn't walks at a constant rate and there is the negative option that coincides with my thoughts. So, I bet the false statement is the third option represented in the scale above.

Light enters water from air at an angle of 25° with the normal, Θ1. If water has an index of refraction of 1.33, determine Θ2.
vladimir1956 [14]
By Snell's law:

η = sini / sinr.        i = 25,  η = 1.33

1.33 = sin25° / sinr

sinr = sin25° / 1.33 = 0.4226/1.33 = 0.3177    Use a calculator.

r = sin⁻¹(0.3177)

r ≈ 18.52°

Option A.

God's grace.
