A 4.6 g lead bullet moving at 278 m/s strikes a steel plate and stops. If all its kinetic energy is converted to thermal energy

and none leaves the bullet, what is its temperature change? Assume the specific heat of lead is 128 J/kg · ◦ C. Answer in units of ◦C.

Answer:

ΔT = 302 °c

Explanation:

mass (m) = 4.6 g = 0.0046 kg

velocity (v) = 278 m/s

specific heat of lead (c) = 128 J/kg. °c

kinetic energy = 0.5 mx $v^{2}$

kinetic energy = 0.5 x 0.0046 x $278^{2}$

kinetic energy = 177.8 J

since all the kinetic energy is converted to thermal energy,

kinetic energy = thermal energy (E) = 177.8 J

thermal energy = m x c x ΔT

where ΔT is the temperature change

177.8 = 0.0046 x 128 x ΔT

ΔT = 177.8 / 0.59

ΔT = 302 °c

Answers:

a) -2.54 m/s

b) -2351.25 J

Explanation:

This problem can be solved by the <u>Conservation of Momentum principle</u>, which establishes that the initial momentum $p_{o}$ must be equal to the final momentum $p_{f}$ :

$p_{o}=p_{f}$ (1)

Where:

$p_{o}=m_{1} V_{o} + m_{2} U_{o}$ (2)

$p_{f}=(m_{1} + m_{2}) V_{f}$ (3)

$m_{1}=110 kg$ is the mass of the first football player

$V{o}=-7 m/s$ is the velocity of the first football player (to the south)

$m_{2}=75 kg$ is the mass of the second football player

$U_{o}=4 m/s$ is the velocity of the second football player (to the north)

$V_{f}$ is the final velocity of both football players

With this in mind, let's begin with the answers:

a) Velocity of the players just after the tackle

Substituting (2) and (3) in (1):

$m_{1} V_{o} + m_{2} U_{o}=(m_{1} + m_{2}) V_{f}$ (4)

Isolating $V_{f}$ :

$V_{f}=\frac{m_{1} V_{o} + m_{2} U_{o}}{m_{1} + m_{2}}$ (5)

$V_{f}=\frac{(110 kg)(-7 m/s) + (75 kg) (4 m/s)}{110 kg + 75 kg}$ (6)

$V_{f}=-2.54 m/s$ (7) The negative sign indicates the direction of the final velocity, to the south

b) Decrease in kinetic energy of the 110kg player

The change in Kinetic energy $\Delta K$ is defined as:

$\Delta K=\frac{1}{2} m_{1}V_{f}^{2} - \frac{1}{2} m_{1}V_{o}^{2}$ (8)

Simplifying:

$\Delta K=\frac{1}{2} m_{1}(V_{f}^{2} - V_{o}^{2})$ (9)

$\Delta K=\frac{1}{2} 110 kg((-2.5 m/s)^{2} - (-7 m/s)^{2})$ (10)

Finally:

$\Delta K=-2351.25 J$ (10) Where the minus sign indicates the player's kinetic energy has decreased due to the perfectly inelastic collision

An electrical motor spins at a constant 1975.0 rpm. If the armature radius is 7.112 cm, what is the acceleration of the edge of

stealth61 [152]

Answer:

Option D is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Since value of angular acceleration is constant, the body has only centripetal acceleration.

Centripetal acceleration

$a=\frac{v^2}{r}=\frac{(r\omega )^2}{r}=r\omega ^2$

We have radius = 7.112 cm = 0.07112 m

Frequency, f = 1975 rpm = 32.92 rps

Angular frequency, ω = 2πf = 2 x π x 32.92 = 206.82 rad/s

Substituting in centripetal acceleration equation,

$a=r\omega ^2=0.07112\times 206.82^2=3042.17m/s^2$

Option D is the correct answer.
