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

Henrietta is going off to her physics class, jogging down the sidewalk at a speed of 2.70 m/s. Her husband Bruce suddenly realiz
Katen [24]

Answer:

The velocity is v  =  6.66 \  m/s

Henrietta is at distance s=  18.17 \  m from the under the window

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The speed of Henrietta is v=  2.70 \ m/s

The height of the window from the ground is h  =  36.5 \  m

Generally the time taken for the lunch to reach the ground assuming it fell directly under the window is

t  =  \sqrt{\frac{2 *  h }{g} }

=> t  =  \sqrt{\frac{2 *  36.5 }{9,8} }

=> t  =  2.73 \  s

Generally the time taken for the lunch to reach Henrietta is mathematically represented as

T =  t +  t_1

Here t_1 is the time duration that elapsed after Henrietta has passed below the window the value is given as 4 s

Now

T = 2.73  +  4

=> T = 6.73 \  s

Generally the distance covered by Henrietta before catching her lunch is

s=  v  *  T

=> s=  2.70  * 6.73

=> s=  18.17 \  m

Generally the speed with which Bruce threw her lunch is mathematically represented as

v  =  \frac{18.17}{2.73}

v  =  6.66 \  m/s

sineoko [7]

Answer:

Mass is constant everywhere,

But weight is different,

If earth g = 10 then moon's is 1.6666667

Now billie's weight in moon is 41.6667
