Answer:

a) Kinetic energies

K₁ = 1.2 J

K₂ = 7.5 J

b) The bullet that has the highest kinetic energy is the one with the highest speed , v = 50 m/s , K₂ = 7.5 J

c) K₂ -K₁  = 6.3 J

Explanation:

The kinetic energy (K) is that due to the movement of a body and is calculated as follows:

K = (1/2) m*v²  (J)

Where :

m : the mass of the body ( kg)

v is the speed of the body (m/s)

Data

m₁ = m₂ = 0.006 Kg

v₁ = 20 m/s

v₂ = 50 m/s

a)Calculation of the kinetic energy

K₁ = (1/2) (m₁)*(v₁)²

K₁ = (1/2) (0.006)*(20)²

K₁ = 1.2 J

K₂= (1/2) (m₂)*(v₂)²

K₂ = (1/2) (0.006)*(50)²

K₂ = 7.5 J

b) K₂ ˃ K₁

The bullet that has the highest kinetic energy is the one with the highest speed , v = 50 m/s, K₂ = 7.5 J

c) Difference of their kinetic energies (K₂ -K₁)

K₂ -K₁  = 7.5 J - 1.2 J = 6,3 J

According to the spectrum seen below, which set of photons were absorbed by the element?
Effectus [21]
The correct choice is ' D ' .

These are the numbers that are missing from the set of blocks at
the top, and also the bars missing from the graph in the middle.

I have no idea what the strip at the bottom labeled "full energy spectrum"
is trying to tell us.

What tension would you need to make a middle c (261.6 hz) fundamental mode on a 1 m string (for example, on a harp)? the linear
Allisa [31]
The frequency of middle C on a string is
f = 261.6 Hz.

The given linear density is
ρ = 0.02 g/cm = (0.02 x 10⁻³ kg)/(10⁻² m)
   = 0.002 kg/m

The length of the string is L = 1 m.

Let T =  the tension in the string (N).
The velocity of the standing wave is
v= \sqrt{ \frac{T}{\rho} }

In the fundamental mode, the wavelength, λ, is equal to the length, L.
That is
Because v = fλ, therefore
\sqrt{ \frac{T}{\rho} } =f \lambda = fL \\\\ \frac{T}{\rho} = (fL)^{2} \\\\ T = \rho (fL)^{2}

From given information, obtain
T = (0.002 kg/m)*(261.6 1/s)²*(1 m)²
   = 136.87 N

Answer: 136.9 N (nearest tenth)

Two resistances, R1 and R2, are connected in series across a 12-V battery. The current increases by 0.500 A when R2 is removed,
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

a)   R₁ = 14.1 Ω,   b)  R₂ =  19.9 Ω

Explanation:

For this exercise we must use ohm's law remembering that in a series circuit the equivalent resistance is the sum of the resistances

all resistors connected

           V = i (R₁ + R₂)

with R₁ connected

           V = (i + 0.5) R₁

with R₂ connected

           V = (i + 0.25) R₂

We have a system of three equations with three unknowns for which we can solve it

We substitute the last two equations in the first

           V = i ( \frac{V}{ i+0.5} + \frac{V}{i+0.25} )

           1 = i ( \frac{1}{i+0.5} + \frac{1}{i+0.25} )

           1 = i ( \frac{i+0.5+i+0.25}{(i+0.5) \ ( i+0.25) } ) =  \frac{i^2 + 0.75i}{i^2 + 0.75 i + 0.125}

           i² + 0.75 i + 0.125 = 2i² + 0.75 i

           i² - 0.125 = 0

           i = √0.125

           i = 0.35355 A

with the second equation we look for R1

          R₁ = \frac{V}{i+0.5}

          R₁ = 12 /( 0.35355 +0.5)

          R₁ = 14.1 Ω

with the third equation we look for R2

          R₂ = \frac{V}{i+0.25}

          R₂ =\frac{12}{0.35355+0.25}

          R₂ =  19.9 Ω

A motorboat is moving at 4.0 m/s when it begins to accelerate at 1.0 m/s2. To the nearest tenth of a second, how long does it ta
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

13 sec

Explanation:

Hello

by definition the acceleration is a vector derived magnitude that indicates the speed variation per unit of time

a=\frac{V_{f}-V_{i}}{t_{f}-t_{i}}\\a(t_{f}-t_{i})={V_{f}-V_{i}  }}\\t_{f}-t_{i}=\frac{V_{f}-V_{i}}{a} \\\\t_{f}=\frac{V_{f}-V_{i}}{a}+t_{i} \\\\

Let

Vi=4.0 m/s

a=1.0 m/s2

Vf=17.0 m/s

ti= (0)sec

t2= unknown

t_{f}=\frac{V_{f}-V_{i} }{a}+t_{i}\\t_{f}=\frac{17-4 }{1}+0\\t_{f}=\ 13\ sec\\

Answer: 13 sec
