A 1.2 kg block of wood hangs motionless from strings. A 50 gram bullet, traveling horzontally, strikes the block and becomes emb
Firdavs [7]

Answer:

speed of the bullet before it hit the block is 200 m/s

Explanation:

given data

mass of block m1 = 1.2 kg

mass of bullet m2 = 50 gram = 0.05 kg

combine speed V= 8.0 m/s

to find out

speed of the bullet before it hit the block

solution

we will apply here conservation of momentum that is

m1 × v1 + m2 × v2 = M × V    .............1

here m1 is mass of block and m2 is mass of bullet and v1 is initial speed of block i.e 0 and v2 is initial speed of bullet and M is combine mass of block and bullet and V is combine speed of block and bullet

put all value in equation 1

m1 × v1 + m2 × v2 = M × V

1.2 × 0 + 0.05 × v2 = ( 1.2 + 0.05 ) × 8

solve it we get

v2 = 200 m/s

so speed of the bullet before it hit the block is 200 m/s

8. The fact that voltage can be created by exerting force on a crystal is used in which type of sensor?
AfilCa [17]

Option C

The fact that voltage can be created by exerting force on a crystal is used in Knock sensor

<u>Explanation:</u>

Any knock to an engine exhibits as a little shake that is distinguished by the knock sensor. This sensor acts by altering the fluctuation to an electrical sign, which is later transferred to the processor mastering the ignition system.

There the variation in quake to the voltage sign modifies the timing improvements on the kindling. The knock sensor is placed on the engine base, cylinder cap or consumption manifold. This is because its purpose is to sense fluctuations affected by engine knock or explosion.

A uniform horizontal beam 4.0 m long and weighing 200 N is attached to the wall by a pin connection that allows the beam to rota
wariber [46]

Answer:

The magnitude of the tension in the cable, T is 1,064.315 N

Explanation:

Here we have

Length of beam = 4.0 m

Weight = 200 N

Center of mass of uniform beam = mid-span = 2.0 m

Point of attachment of cable = Beam end = 4.0 m

Angle of cable = 53° with the horizontal

Tension in cable = T

Point at which person stands = 1.50 m from wall

Weight of person = 350 N

Therefore,

Taking moment about the wall, we have

∑Clockwise moments = ∑Anticlockwise moments

T×sin(53) = 350×1.5 + 200×2

T = 850/sin(53)  = ‭1,064.315 N.
