Answer:

$v = 15.45 m/s$

Explanation:

As per mechanical energy conservation we can say that here since friction is present in the barrel so we will have

Work done by friction force = Loss in mechanical energy

so we will have

$W_f = (U_i + K_i) - (U_f + K_f)$

here we know that

$W_f = F_f . d$

$W_f = 40 \times 4$

$W_f = 160 J$

Initial compression in the spring is given as

$F = kx$

$4400 = 1100 x$

$x = 4 m$

now from above equation

$W_f = (\frac{1}{2}kx^2 + 0) - (mgh + \frac{1}{2}mv^2)$

$160 = (\frac{1}{2}1100(4^2) + 0) - (60 \times 9.8\times 2.50 + \frac{1}{2}(60)v^2)$

$160 = 8800 - 1470 - 30 v^2$

$v = 15.45 m/s$

A straight wire 20 cm long, carrying a current of 4 A, is in a uniform magnetic field of 0.6 T. What is the force on the wire wh

zheka24 [161]

Answer:

Magnetic force, F = 0.24 N

Explanation:

It is given that,

Current flowing in the wire, I = 4 A

Length of the wire, L = 20 cm = 0.2 m

Magnetic field, B = 0.6 T

Angle between force and the magnetic field, θ = 30°. The magnetic force is given by :

$F=ILB\ sin\theta$

$F=4\ A\times 0.2\ m\times 0.6\ T\ sin(30)$

F = 0.24 N

So, the force on the wire at an angle of 30° with respect to the field is 0.24 N. Hence, this is the required solution.

You adjust the temperature so that a sound wave travels more quickly through the air. You increase the temperature from 30 degre

katen-ka-za [31]

To calculate the velocity of the sound wave, we use this formula:
V = 331 + [0.6*T],
Where V is the velocity and T represents temperature.
When the temperature is 36 degree Celsius, we have
V = 331 + [0.6 * 36]
V = 331 + 21.6 = 352.6
Therefore, V = 352.6 m/s.
