What dose it mean to say that mass is conserved during a physical change

Physics

Answer:

When a physical change occurs, the mass of the substance is conserved. This means that the total mass of the substance remains the same from beginning to end. The physical properties of the substance, such as size and shape, may change, but the amount of matter in the substance does not change.

Explanation:

When there is no change in chemical composition of a substance then it is known as physical change.

When we say that mass is conserved during a physical change then it means that total mass of the substance or object will remain the same from beginning till the end.

For example, a metal box of mass 20 grams is beaten with hammer. Its shape will change which is a physical change and after beaten with the hammer its mass still remains 20 grams.

A 4.30 g bullet moving at 943 m/s strikes a 730 g wooden block at rest on a frictionless surface. The bullet emerges, traveling
Ymorist [56]

Answer:

(a)2.7 m/s

(b) 5.52 m/s

Explanation:

The total of the system would be conserved as no external force is acting on it.

Initial momentum = final momentum

⇒(4.30 g × 943 m/s) + (730 g × 0) = (4.30 g × 484 m/s) + (730 g × v)

⇒ 730 ×v = (4054.9 - 2081.2) =1973.7

⇒v=2.7 m/s

Thus, the resulting speed of the block is 2.7 m/s.

(b) since, the momentum is conserved, the speed of the bullet-block center of mass would be constant.

V_{COM} = \frac{m_b}{m_b+m_{bl}}v_{bi}=\frac{4.30}{4.30+730}\times 943 m/s = 5.52 m/s

Thus, the speed of the bullet-block center of mass is 5.52 m/s.

What is average velocity?
Ber [7]
The average speed of an object is defined as the distance traveled divided by the time elapsed. Velocity is a vector quantity, and average velocity can be defined as the displacement divided by the time. According To a website on google

An electric fan has the power output of 60W. How much work is done if the fan operates for 120s?
Digiron [165]
Since power = work done/time, 60= work done/120, work done = 120*60 = 7200. So,work done = 7200N (Newton). 
I'm not sure if you're supposed to convert the seconds to time.
