A 15 g bullet traveling horizontally at 865 m/s passes through a tank containing 13.5 kg of water and emerges with a speed of 53
blagie [28]

Answer:

0.0613°C

Explanation:

the given parameters are m=15gm=15×10⁻³  V₁=865m/s  V₂=534m/s

the bullet moves with different kinetic energies before and after the penetration, therefore

Kinetic energy before - kinetic energy after = 1/2 × m × ( V₁² - V₂²)

                                                                         =\frac{1}{2} × 15×10⁻³ × (865² - 534²)

                                                                         = 3.47 × 10⁻³J

 this loss in energy is transferred to the water, therefore

change in temperature = \frac{Q}{m  C}

where c = heat capacity of water = 4.19 x 10^3

          m = mass of water = 13.5 kg

= {3.47 × 10⁻³} / {13.5 x  4.19 x 10^3 }

=0.0613°C

A proton, an electron, and a helium nucleus all move at speed v. Rank their de Broglie wavelengths from largest to smallest. Wri
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

The correct option is 'c':electron,proton,helium nucleus

Explanation:

The De-Broglie's wavelength of particle is given by

\lambda =\frac{h}{mv}

Thus we can see that wavelength is inversely related to mass of the particle since 'h' (Plank's constant) and velocity is same for all the particles  

Thus we conclude that the the lightest particle will have the most wavelength

Electron being the lightest of the 3 particles will have the largest wavelength thus the correct option is 'c'. Since electron has the largest wavelength followed by proton and the least wavelength among the 3 is of helium.

A bowling ball of mass m = 1.7 kg drops from a height h = 14.2 m. A semi-circular tube of radius r = 6.2 m rest centered on a sc
marshall27 [118]

Answer:

W_net = mg + 2mgh/r

Explanation:

The forces applied in this motion of the bowling ball are both gravitational and centripetal forces.

Now, gravitational force is; F_g = mg

While centripetal force is; F_c = mv²/r

Since we want to express the net force in terms of the variables in the statement and we are not given "v", let's find an expression of v with the variables given.

Now, from Newton's equation of motion, at initial velocity of 0, v² = 2gh.

Thus;

F_c = 2mgh/r

Where;

m is ball mass

r is tube radius

h is fall height

Thus, the net force will be;

F_net = F_g + F_c

Now, Net force would be equal to the net weight that will be read on the scale.

Thus;

W_net = F_net = F_g + F_c

W_net = mg + 2mgh/r
