Speed=distance/time
distance = 10,000 m
time= 27 min 30.42s but we need to convert that completely to seconds
(27x60)+30.42= 1650.12 rounded to 1650
speed=10,000/1650.12
speed=6.059063
Because when we do sig dig we round to the least number of digits we would round to 4 because 1650.12 gets rounded to 1650
so 6.059 m/s

How much work is done on a satellite in a circular orbit about earth?
alexgriva [62]

Answer:

0 J

Explanation:

W = Work done on the satellite in circular orbit about earth by earth

F = Force on gravity on satellite by earth

d = displacement of the satellite

\theta = Angle between the force on gravity and displacement = 90

We know that, Work done is given as

W = F d Cos\theta\\W = F d Cos90\\W = F d (0)\\W = 0 J

In a ballistics test, a 24 g bullet traveling horizontally at 1200 m/s goes through a 31-cm-thick 320 kg stationary target and e
Zanzabum

Answer:

The  velocity is  v_t  =  0.02175 \  m/s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The  mass of the bullet is  m_b  =  0.024 \  kg

    The initial speed of the bullet is  u_b  =  1200 \  m/s

   The mass of the target is  m_t  =  320 \  kg

    The  initial velocity of target is  u_t  =  0  \ m/s

    The  final velocity of the bullet is  is  v_b  =  910 \  m/s

   

Generally according to the law of momentum conservation we have that

      m_b *  u_b  +  m_t *  u_t  =  m_b *  v_b  +  m_t  *  v_t

=>   0.024  *  1200  +  320 *  0  =  0.024 *  910   +  320  *  v_t

=>    v_t  =  0.02175 \  m/s
