Answer:

the momentum of the system must be ZERO just before the bullet is shot

Explanation:

As we know that initially the bullet is inside the gun with stationary condition

So here we can say that gun and bullet was both at rest initially

so we have

P = m_1v_1 + m_2v_2

since both are at rest so we have

v_1 = v_2 = 0

so total momentum of the system will be

P = 0

So the momentum of the system must be ZERO just before the bullet is shot

The momentum before is zero because nothing is moving. Note that because momentum is a conserved vector, the total momentum after the shot is also zero. You just have to add the products of mass and velocity in opposite directions. So the answer is zero

What is the gravitational force on a 70kg that is 6.38x10^6m above the earths surface
NARA [144]

Answer:

171.5 N

Explanation:

The gravitational force on an object due to the Earth is given by

F=mg

where

m is the mass of the object

g is the acceleration due to gravity

The acceleration due to gravity at a certain height h above the Earth is given by

g=\frac{GM}{(R+h)^2}

where:

G is the gravitational constant

M=5.98\cdot 10^{24} kg is the Earth's mass

R=6.37\cdot 10^6 m is the Earth's radius

Here,

h=6.38\cdot 10^6  m

So the acceleration due to gravity is

g=\frac{(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})(5.98\cdot 10^{24})}{(6.37\cdot 10^6 + 6.38\cdot 10^6)^2}=2.45 m/s^2

We know that the mass of the object is

m = 70 kg

So, the gravitational force on it is

F=mg=(70)(2.45)=171.5 N

Electromagnetic radiation behaves both as particles (called photons) and as waves. Wavelength (λ) and frequency (ν) are related
inessss [21]
<h2>Answer: 136.363 m</h2>

Explanation:

We can find the wavelength of the radiation produced by the microwave oven by using the following given equation:

c=\lambda.\nu   (1)

Clearing \lambda :

\lambda=\frac{c}{\nu}   (2)

Knowing \nu=2.20 GHz=2.20(10)^{6}Hz=2.20(10)^{6}s^{-1}

\lambda=\frac{3(10)^{8}m/s}{2.20(10)^{6}s^{-1}}   (3)

\lambda=136.363m This is the wavelength of the radiation produced by the microwave

The tires on your truck have 0.35 m radius. In a straight line, you drive 2600 m. What is the angular displacement of the tire,
Travka [436]
1) In a circular motion, the angular displacement \theta is given by
\theta =  \frac{S}{r}
where S is the arc length and r is the radius. The problem says that the truck drove for 2600 m, so this corresponds to the total arc length covered by the tire: S=2600 m. Using the information about the radius, r=0.35 m, we find the total angular displacement:
\theta =  \frac{2600 m}{0.35 m} =7428 rad

2) If we put larger tires, with radius r=0.60 m, the angular displacement will be smaller. We can see this by using the same formula. In fact, this time we have:
\theta =  \frac{2600 m}{0.60 m}=4333 rad

scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

B. It is directly proportional to the source charge.

Explanation:

Gauss's law states that the total (net) flux of an electric field at points on a closed surface is directly proportional to the electric charge enclosed by that surface.

This ultimately implies that, Gauss's law relates the electric field at points on a closed surface to the net charge enclosed by that surface.

This electromagnetism law was formulated in 1835 by famous scientists known as Carl Friedrich Gauss.

Mathematically, Gauss's law is given by this formula;

ϕ = (Q/ϵ0)

Where;

ϕ is the electric flux.

Q represents the total charge in an enclosed surface.

ε0 is the electric constant.

Hence, the statement which is true of the electric field at a distance from the source charge is that it is directly proportional to the source charge.
