Find the kinetic energy of a bullet weighing 0.10 N if its velocity is 2.0 X 103 m/s?
1 answer:
The kinetic energy of the bullet is 20.4 kJ.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Kinetic energy of a bullet will be equal to the product of mass of the bullet with the square of velocity or speed of the bullet and then the half of that product value.
But here the mass of the bullet is not given, instead the weight of the bullet is given in terms of force. So from this, we have to first find the mass of the bullet.
We know that as per Newton's second law of motion, force is directly proportional to the product of mass and acceleration. So here the acceleration will be equal to the acceleration due to gravity as it is weight of the object.
So F = mg
0.10 N = m × 9.8
So ,the mass of the bullet is 0.0102 kg.
Now, we know the mass and velocity of the bullet is given as 2000 m/s.
So,
kinetic energy = × m × v²
kinetic energy = 0.5 × 0.0102 × 2000 × 2000 = 20.4 kJ
Thus, the kinetic energy of the bullet is 20.4 kJ.

Answer:
In the film Ice word Revenge, vehicle 2 did not fall of the cliff because, but in Claire's test, vehicle 2 off the cliff because
Explanation:
In Claire's test, the weight of vehicle 1 is either equal to or greater than the weight of vehicle 2, so it was sufficient to push it down the cliff. In the film Ice word revenge, the weight of vehicle 1 is less than the weight of vehicle 2, it is not sufficient to make it fall off the cliff ( Note: Looking exactly the same in the movie, as Claire claimed, does not mean they have the same mass). Therefore if Claire wants a collision that will not make the vehicle 2 fall off the cliff, he should collide it with a vehicle of lesser mass/weight.
