A 5-g lead bullet traveling in 20°C air at 300 m/s strikes a flat steel plate and stops.

densk [106]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the Kinetic Energy and the Energy Produced by the heat loss. In mathematical terms kinetic energy can be described as:

$KE = \frac{1}{2} mv^2$

Where,

m = Mass

v = Velocity

Replacing we have that the Total Kinetic Energy is

$KE = \frac{1}{2} mv^2$

$KE = \frac{1}{2} (5*10^{-3})(300)^2$

$KE = 225J$

On the other hand the required Energy to heat up t melting point is

$Q_1 = mC_p \Delta T$

$Q_2 = L_f m$

Where,

m = Mass

$C_p =$ Specific Heat

$\Delta T =$ Change at temperature

$L_f =$ Latent heat of fussion

Heat required to heat up to melting point,

$Q = Q_1+Q_2$

$Q = mC_p \Delta T+L_f m$

$Q = 5*0.128*(327-20) + 5*24.7$

$Q = 310J$

The energy required to melt is larger than the kinetic energy. Therefore the heat of fusion of lead would be 327 ° C: The melting point of lead.

A blow-dryer and a vacuum cleaner each operate with a voltage of 120 V. The current rating of the blow- dryer is 11 Amps, and th

AURORKA [14]

Answer:

(a) 1320 W

(b) 480 W

(c) E':E ≈ 11:2

Explanation:

(a) Applying,

P' = VI'................. Equation 1

Where P' = Power of the blow-dryer, V = Voltage, I = current rating of the blow-dryer.

From the question,

Given: V = 120 V, I' = 11 A

Substitute these values into equation 1

P = (120×11)

P = 1320 W

(b) Similarly,

P = VI................... Equation 2

Where P = Power of the vacuum cleaner. I = current rating of the vacuum cleaner.

Also Given: I = 4 A,

Therefore

P = 4(120)

P = 480 W

(c)

E' = P'/t'............. Equation 3

E = P/t................ Equation 4

Where E' = Energy of the blow-dryer, t' = time of use of the blow-dryer, E = Energy of the vacuum cleaner, t = time of use of the vacuum cleaner

From the question,

Given: t' = 15 minutes = (15×60) = 900 seconds, t = 30 minutes = (30×60) = 1800 seconds

Substitute these values into equation 3 and 4

E' = 1320/900

E' = 1.47 J,

E = 480/1800

E = 0.267

Therefore,

E':E = 1.47:0.267

E':E ≈ 11:2
