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

A ball rolls for 8 seconds and travels 24 meters. How fast was it traveling?
belka [17]

Answer:

The speed of the ball was, v = 3 m/s

Explanation:

Given data,

The time period of the ball, t = 8 s

The distance the ball rolled, d = 24 m

The velocity of an object is defined as the object's displacement to the time taken. The formula for the velocity is,

                              v = d / t      m/s

Substituting the given values in the above equation,

                               v = 24 / 8

                                  = 3 m/s

Hence, the speed of the ball was, v = 3 m/s

Which form of energy does a plant store when light is transformed during photosynthesis into sugars?
AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

C. Chemical energy

Explanation:

The different types of energy listed in this question are:

A) Electrical energy: it is the energy related to the flow of electrical charges (current)

B) Nuclear energy: it is the energy contained in the nuclei of the atoms, and released during nuclear reactions

C) Chemical energy: it is the energy contained in the bonds between molecules, and it is released during chemical reactions

D) Thermal energy: it is the energy associated with the motion of molecules

Photosynthesis is the process that plants use to transform the light energy (coming from the Sun) into chemical energy. In fact, in this process, plants absorb CO2 (from the atmosphere) and solar energy (from the light), and they convert them into sugars (glucose) and oxygen. Therefore, the initial energy coming as solar energy is converted into energy of the bonds of the molecules of glucose (so, chemical energy).

So, the correct option is C).
