Answer:

V = 2.14 m/s

Explanation:

Given,

The mass of the bullet, m = 12.7 g

                                              = 0.0127 Kg

The velocity of the bullet, v = 430 m/s

The weight of the rifle, w = 25 N

∴ The mass of the rifle, M = 25/9.8

                                           = 2.55 Kg

According to the law of conservation of momentum,

                                        MV + mv = 0

Therefore, the recoil velocity of the gun

                                           V = -mv/M

Substituting the given values in the above equation

                                            V = -0.0127 x 430 /2.55

                                                = -2.14 m/s

The negative sign indicates the direction of V with respect to v.

Hence, the recoil velocity of the gun is, V = 2.14 m/s

How much heat energy (in megajoules) is needed to convert 7 kg of ice at -9°C C to water at 0°C?
Molodets [167]

Answer:

hence option A is correct

Explanation:

heat required from -9°C to 0°C ice = mass × specific heat of ice ×change in temperature

heat required from -9°C to 0°C ice = 7×2100×9 =132300 J =0.1323 MJ

( HERE SPECIFIC HEAT OF ICE IS A CONSTANT VALUE OF 2100

J/(kg °C )

heat required from  0°C ice to 0°C water = mass× specific heat of fusion of ice

                                                             = 7×3.36×10^5

                                                              = 2.352 × 10^6 J

                                                              = 2.352 MJ

TOTAL HEAT ENERGY REQUIRED = 0.1323 MJ +2.352 MJ

                                                          = 2.4843 MJ

hence option A is correct

g We saw in class that in a pendulum the string does no work. We also saw that the normal force does no work on an object slidin
Ymorist [56]

Answer:

From question (a) and (b) the pendulum motion is perpendicular to the force so the normal force will do no work and the tension in the string of the pendulum will not work

       i.e Normal \ Force(N)  = mg cos \theta

And \theta = 90 so

           N = 0

c

An example will be a where a stone is attached to the end of a string and is made to move in a circular motion while keeping the other end of the string in a fixed position        

d

A dog walking along a surface which has friction, here the frictional force would acting in the direction of the motion and this would do positive work
