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

Consider (a) an electron (b) a photon, and (c) a proton, all moving in vacuum. Choose all correct answers for each question. (iv
DiKsa [7]

Electron, photon and proton carry momentum .

  • De Broglie derived the relationship between the wavelength and momentum of matter. This relationship is known as de Broglie's relationship.
  • De Broglie's relationship is given by \lambda=\frac{h}{mv}   ...(1)
  • Momentum is the product of the mass of a particle and its velocity. Momentum is a vector quantity; i.e., it has both magnitude and direction.

Equation (1) can be written as   \lambda=\frac{h}{p}   where λ  is known as de Broglie wavelength and p is momentum , h = Plank’s constant

For photon , the momentum is given by   p=\frac{E}{c}   ...(2)  where c is the speed is the speed of light .

From equation (1) and (2) we can conclude that electron, photon and proton carry momentum .

A dragster is traveling at a constant rate of 45 m/s. How fast is it going when it has traveled 325 m?
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

The speed of the dragster after travelling 325 m is still 45 m/s

Explanation:

In this problem, we are told that the dragster is travelling at constant rate, therefore its speed is constant and it is

v = 45 m/s

Therefore, its speed will remain constant during the entire motion: therefore, after having travelled for 325 m, its speed will still be 45 m/s.

We can also calculate the time taken for the dragster to cover the 325 m. In fact, the speed in a uniform motion is given by

v=\frac{d}{t}

where:

v is the speed

d is the distance covered

t is the time elapsed

In this case, we have:

v = 45 m/s

d = 325 m

Solving for t, we find:

t=\frac{d}{v}=\frac{325}{45}=7.2 s
