A 5.00-g bullet leaves the muzzle of a rifle with a speed of 320 m/s. the expanding gases behind it exert what force on the bull

et while it is traveling down the barrel of the rifle, 0.820 m long? assume constant acceleration and negligible friction.

Answer;

= 312 Newtons

Explanation;

The bullet has a mass of 0.005 kg, and a velocity of 320 m/s, so we need to find it's final kinetic energy.  

KE = 1/2*m*v^2

      = 1/2*0.005*320^2

      = 256 Joules.  

Divide this by the distance over which this energy was received and you have the force that provided that energy.  

  = 256/0.820 = 312.195 Newtons  

Rounded off, this is 312 N

I need to choose a theme for my physics assignment My experiment is finding g
Kobotan [32]
<h3>Question:</h3>

How to find g (acceleration due to gravity)

<h3>Solution:</h3>

We know,

Acceleration due to gravity (g)

=  \frac{GM}{ {R}^{2} }

where, G = Gravitational constant

= 6.67 \times  {10}^{11} N {m}^{2}/k {g}^{2}  \\

M = Mass of the earth

= 6 \times  {10}^{24} \:  kg

R = Radius of the earth

= 6.4 \times  {10}^{6} m

Putting these values of G, M and R in the above formula, we get

g \:  =  \:  \frac{6.67 \times  {10}^{11} N {m}^{2}/k {g}^{2}   \times \: 6 \times  {10}^{24} \:  kg }{(6.4 \times  {10}^{6}m {)}^{2}  }  \\  = 9.8m/ {s}^{2}

So, the value of acceleration due to gravity is

9.8m/s ^{2}

Hope it helps.

What is the difference between tangential acceleration and centripetal acceleration?
Nuetrik [128]

Centripetal acceleration is directed along a radius so it may also be called the radial acceleration. If the speed is not constant, then there is also a tangential acceleration (at). The tangential acceleration is, indeed, tangent to the path of the particle's motion.

A box of weight 74 N is sliding on a horizontal surface at a constant velocity due to an external force F-&gt; of magnitude 4.8
n200080 [17]

Answer

4.8 N

If the box is moving with a constant velocity, then we can say that the system is in equilibrium. This is because if the external force (F->) was greater than other forces the box would be accelerating. This tells us that this force (F->) is just enough to overcome friction and so it must be equal to 4.8 N.

The normal force has no effect to the horizontal velocities or forces. It is equal to -Weight. That is -74 N. The negative sign shows that the force is in opposite direction.
