In a police ballistics test, a 10.0-g bullet moving at 300 m/s is fired into a 1.00-kg block at rest. The bullet goes through th

e block almost instantaneously and emerges with 50.0% of its original speed. What is the speed of the block just after the bullet emerges

Answer:

Speed of block after the bullet emerges = 1.5 m/s

Explanation:

Here momentum is conserved.

Initial momentum = Final momentum.

Mass of bullet = 10 g = 0.01 kg

Initial Velocity of bullet = 300 m/s

Mass of block = 1 kg

Initial Velocity of block = 0 m/s

Final Velocity of bullet = 50% of initial velocity. = 150 m/s

We need to find final velocity of block. Let it be v

We have

Initial momentum = 0.01 x 300 + 1 x 0 = 3 kg m/s

Final momentum = 0.01 x 150 + 1 x v = 1.5 + v

Equating

3 = 1.5 + v

v = 1.5 m/s

Speed of block after the bullet emerges = 1.5 m/s

The following are steps involved in transmission at the cholinergic synapse:
Westkost [7]

Answer:

3. Step 1; An action potential depolarizes the axon terminal at the presynaptic membrane

2. Step 2; Calcium ions enter the axon terminal

4. Step 3; Acetylcholine is released from storage vesicles by exocytosis

5. Step 4; Acetylcholine binds to receptors on the postsynaptic membrane

1. Step 5; Chemically gated ion channels on the postsynaptic membrane are opened

Explanation:

3. The cholinergic synapse starts at the point of arrival of an electrochemical impulse or action potentials at the synaptic knob of the axon terminal of a presynaptic neuron membrane

2. The arrival of the action potential at the axon terminal causes the calcium ion Ca²⁺ channels to open and Ca²⁺ enters into the synaptic knob, resulting in the fusion of the presynaptic membrane and synaptic vesicles

4. The fusion enables the release into the synaptic cleft of many acetylcholine (ACh) transmitter molecules by exocytosis

5. Some of the ACh are transported across the synaptic cleft and bind to postsynaptic neuron membrane embedded ACh receptors

1. The binding of the ACh neurotransmitter molecules to receptors on the membrane of the dendrites of a neuron it leads to the opening of ion channels

If the ankylosaurs starts running and accelerates at 1.3m/s^2 for 3 seconds how far does he make it before the velociraptor catc
sveta [45]

Acceleration is the change of velocity, and velocity is the change of distance. The opposite of finding change, or differentiation, is integration.

Acceleration = 1.3 m/s²

Velocity: ∫ 1.3 dx = 1.3x + c m/s

Distance: ∫ 1.3x dx = 1.3x²/2 + c m

Distance run: 1.3*3²/2 = 5.85 m
