The driver of a car slams on the brakes when he sees a tree blocking the road. The car slows uniformly with an acceleration of -

5.60 m/s2 for 4.20 s, making straight skid marks 62.4 m long ending at the tree. With what speed does the car then strike the tree

The equation for speed is s=d÷t the distance=62.4m and the time=4.20s so 62.4÷4.20= 14.857

The law of universal gravitation states that any two objects in the universe, without exception,

STatiana [176]

A. attract each other.

The Law of Universal Gravitation discusses the phenomenon of gravity. Remember that gravity is the force that keeps us on Earth; the Earth pulls us down, and our bodies pull back. Gravity is the force of attraction, so the correct answer is a).

A(n) 10.1 g bullet is fired into a(n) 2.41 kg ballistic pendulum and becomes embedded in it. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8

fomenos

Answer:

$v = 186.90\,\frac{m}{s}$

Explanation:

The motion of ballistic pendulum is modelled by the appropriate use of the Principle of Energy Conservation:

$\frac{1}{2}\cdot (m_{p}+m_{b})\cdot v^{2} = (m_{p}+m_{b})\cdot g \cdot h$

The final velocity of the system formed by the ballistic pendulum and the bullet is:

$v = \sqrt{2\cdot g\cdot h}$

$v = \sqrt{2\cdot (9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} )\cdot (0.031\,m)}$

$v\approx 0.78\,\frac{m}{s}$

Initial velocity of the bullet can be calculated from the expression derived of the Principle of Momentum:

$(0.0101\,kg)\cdot v = (2.41\,kg + 0.0101\,kg)\cdot (0.78\,\frac{m}{s} )$

$v = 186.90\,\frac{m}{s}$
