A rifle bullet with mass 8.00 g and initial horizontal velocity 280 m/s strikes and embeds itself in a block with mass 0.992 kg

that rests on a frictionless surface and is attached to one end of an ideal spring. The other end of the spring is attached to the wall. The impact compresses the spring a maximum distance of 15.0 cm. After the impact, the block moves in SHM. Calculate the period of this motion.

Answer:

0.4113772 s

Explanation:

Given the following :

Mass of bullet (m1) = 8g = 0.008kg

Initial horizontal Velocity (u1) = 280m/s

Mass of block (m2) = 0.992kg

Maxumum distance (x) = 15cm = 0.15m

Recall;

Period (T) = 2π√(m/k)

According to the law of conservation of momentum : (inelastic Collison)

m1 * u1 = (m1 + m2) * v

Where v is the final Velocity of the colliding bodies

0.008 * 280 = (0.008 + 0.992) * v

2.24 = 1 * v

v = 2.24m/s

K. E = P. E

K. E = 0.5mv^2

P.E = 0.5kx^2

0.5(0.992 + 0.008)*2.24^2 = 0.5*k*(0.15)^2

0.5*1*5.0176 = 0.5*k*0.0225

2.5088 = 0.01125k

k = 2.5088 / 0.01125

k = 223.00444 N/m

Therefore,

Period (T) = 2π√(m/k)

T = 2π√(0.992+0.008) / 233.0444

T = 2π√0.0042910

T = 2π * 0.0655059

T = 0.4113772 s

What is the energy dissipated as a function of time in a circular loop of N turns of wire having a radius of r0 and a resistance

Snezhnost [94]

Explanation:

Let N be the number of turns in a circular loop having a radius of r₀ and a resistance R. The magnetic field is given by :

$B(t)=B_oe^{-\dfrac{t}{\tau}}$

The induced emf in the circular coil is given by :

$\epsilon=\dfrac{-d\phi}{dt}$

Where

$\phi=BA$

$\epsilon=N\dfrac{-d(BA)}{dt}$

$\epsilon=NAB_o\dfrac{-d(e^{-\dfrac{t}{\tau}})}{dt}$

$\epsilon=\dfrac{NAB_o}{\tau}e^{-t/\tau}$

Power dissipated is given by :

$P=\dfrac{\epsilon^2}{R}$

$P=\dfrac{(\dfrac{NAB_o}{\tau}e^{-t/\tau})^2}{R}$

$P=(\dfrac{NAB_o}{\tau})^2\dfrac{e^{-2t/\tau}}{R}$

Energy dissipated in the circuit is given by :

$E=\int\limits^T_0 {P.dt}$

$E=\int\limits^T_0 {(\dfrac{NAB_o}{\tau})^2\dfrac{e^{-2t/\tau}}{R}.dt}$

$E=\dfrac{1}{R}(\dfrac{NAB_o}{\tau})^2\int\limits^T_0 {e^{-2t/\tau}.dt}$

$E=\dfrac{(N\pi r_o^2B_o^2)^2}{2R}{\tau(e^{2t/\tau}-1)}{}$

Hence, this is the required solution.

Answer:

A) An organism with favorable genetic variation will tend to survive and breed successfully.

Explanation:

In an ecosystem, organisms that don't have the best genetic variation will die off, leaving the more genetic favored ones to survive and become better as a whole.

You throw a baseball with a mass of 0.5 kg. The ball leaves your hand with a speed of 35 m/s. Calculate the kinetic energy. (SHO

mixas84 [53]

Answer:

The kinetic energy of the baseball is 306.25 joules.

Explanation:

SInce the baseball can be considered a particle, that is, that effects from geometry can be neglected, the kinetic energy ( $K$ ), in joules, is entirely translational, whose formula is:

$K = \frac{1}{2}\cdot m\cdot v^{2}$ (1)

Where:

$m$ - Mass, in kilograms.

$v$ - Speed, in meters per second.

If we know that $m = 0.5\,kg$ and $v = 35\,\frac{m}{s}$ , then the kinetic energy of the baseball thrown by the player is:

$K = \frac{1}{2}\cdot m \cdot v^{2}$

$K = 306.25\,J$

The kinetic energy of the baseball is 306.25 joules.
