Scientists are experimenting with a kind of gun that may eventually be used to fire payloads directly into orbit. In one test, t

his gun accelerates a 3.8-kg projectile from rest to a speed of 9.3 × 103 m/s. The net force accelerating the projectile is 9.3 × 105 N. How much time is required for the projectile to come up to speed?

Answer:

t=0.038s

Explanation:

Project mass m=3.8 kg

Initial speed vi= 0m/s

Final speed vf= 9.3×10³ m/s

Force F=9.3×10⁵N

To find

Time t

Solution

From Newtons second law we know that

∑F=ma

Where m is mass

a is acceleration

We can write this equation as

∑F=m(Δv/Δt)

=m\frac{v_{f}-v_{i}}{t}

Rearrange this equation to find time t

So

t=m\frac{v_{f}-v_{i}}{F}

Substitute the given values

t=3.8kg\frac{9.3*10^3m/s-0}{9.3*10^5N} \\t=0.038s

8 The diagram shows four identical spheres placed between two wooden blocks on a ruler.
enyata [817]

The diameter of the sphere is 2cm.

<h3>How to calculate the diameter?</h3>

From the diagram, the first sphere on the ruler is at 4cn and the last sphere is at 12cm.

Therefore, the length will be:

= 12 - 4.

= 8cm

The diameter of one sphere will be:

= Length / 4

= 8/4

= 2

Therefore, the diameter of the sphere is 2cm.

If two bicycles of same masses move at different velocities,it will be easier to stop the bicycle that is moving at lower veloci
s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

It is easier to stop the bicycle moving at a lower velocity because it will require a <em>smaller force</em> to stop it when compared to a bicycle with a higher velocity that needs a<em> bigger force.</em>

Explanation:

The question above is related to "Newton's Law of Motion." According to the <em>Third Law of Motion</em>, whenever an object exerts a force on another object <em>(action force)</em>, an equal force is exerted against it. This force is of the same magnitude but opposite direction.

When it comes to moving bicycles, the force that stops their movement is called "friction." Applying the law of motion, the higher the speed, the higher the force<em> </em>that is needed to stop it while the lower the speed, the lower the force<em> </em>that is needed to stop it.

Which of the following statements describes nucleons?
Yuliya22 [10]
The correct answer is D.

A nucleon<span> is one of either of the two types of subatomic particles (neutrons and protons) which are located in the nucleus of atoms.
</span>

The total number of nucleon in the nucleus of an atom gives you an idea about the mass of that atom. In fact, one may refer mass number as nucleon number.

Simply put, nucleons are the particles that make nucleus of an atom and are held up together inside the nucleus due to nuclear force.

Assume that the function x(t) represents the length of tape that has unwound as a function of time. find θ(t), the angle through
bekas [8.4K]
We know that arc length (x(t)) is given with the following formula:
x(t)=\theta(t) r
Where r is the radius of the barrel. We must keep in mind that as barrel rolls its radius decreases because less and less tape is left on it.
If we say that the thickness of the tape is D then with every full circle our radius shrinks by d. We can write this down mathematically:
r(\theta)=r_0-\frac{D\cdot \theta}{2\pi}
When we plug this back into the first equation we get:
x(t)=\theta(r_0-\frac{D\theta}{2\pi}})\\ \frac{D\theta^2}{2\pi}-\theta r_0+x(t)=0\\
We must solve this quadratic equation.
The final solution is:
\theta=\frac{\pi r_0+\sqrt{\pi \left(-2Dx(t)+\pi r_0^2\right)}}{D},\:\theta=\frac{\pi r_0-\sqrt{\pi \left(-2Dx(t)+\pi r_0^2\right)}}{D}
It is rather complicated solution. If we asume that the tape has no thickness we get simply:
x(t)=\theta(r_0-\frac{D\theta}{2\pi}});D=0\\&#10;x(t)=\theta r_0\\&#10;\theta(t)=\frac{x(t)}{r_0}
