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

PLEASE HELP ME PLS PLS Imagine an object held at some height above the ground. It is released and falls toward the ground. Ignor
Stels [109]

Option e is true. The total energy is the sum of all the energies present in the system. The potential energy in a system is due to its position in the system.

<h3>What is the law of conservation of energy?</h3>

According to the Law of conservation of energy. Although energy cannot be generated or destroyed, it may be transferred from one form to another.

The following statements are true;

a)All of its energy must be potential energy before it falls.

b)At the conclusion of its fall, all of its energy must be transformed to kinetic energy.

c)During its fall, the sum of its kinetic and potential energy must match the initial quantity of potential energy.

d)Total energy = Kinetic Energy + Potential Energy.

Hence, option e is correct.

Which best explains how the diffraction pattern observed in young’s experiment supports the wave theory of light?.
KIM [24]

Answer: the airy pattern can only arise from wave propagation

Explanation:if particles went in straight lines through a slit, they would progate linearly and not interfere. The airy pattern arises from diffraction as waves interfere, producing peaks (constructive interference where peaks of waves from each slit coincide) and troughs (destructive interference where peaks and troughs of waves from each slit cancel out). If intensity rather than field is measured nodes occur where 0 values line up instead of troughs

If an object is rolling without slipping, how does its linear speed compare to its rotational speed?
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

v = rw

Explanation:

When an object is rolling continuously without slipping, then every angle it rotates through, is equal to a distance the perimeter has rotated.

If the object completes 10 revolutions and takes a particular time, let's say t to complete it. The angular distance would then be 20 π rad, while its angular velocity will be 20 π/t

The circumference will somehow translate to the distance it covers, which is 20πr, this means that the speed is 20πr/t

So, like the question asked, the linear speed compared to angular speed is

v : w

20πr/t : 20πt, which can be simplified to

r : 1

In essence, v = rw

If you are stopped, then get on a bike and accelerate 2 m/s/s south, what us your final velocity after 3 seconds? Please Explain
olga_2 [115]
Vf = Final velocity.
Vi = initial velocity
a = acceleration. 
t = time

Vf = Vi + at

Vf = 0 + (2 m/s^2)(3s)

Vf = 6 m/s south
