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
1 answer:
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)
= × 15×10⁻³ × (865² - 534²)
= 3.47 × 10⁻³J
this loss in energy is transferred to the water, therefore
change in temperature =
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

Answer:
<em>The new period of oscillation is D) 3.0 T</em>
Explanation:
<u>Simple Pendulum</u>
A simple pendulum is a mechanical arrangement that describes periodic motion. The simple pendulum is made of a small bob of mass 'm' suspended by a thin inextensible string.
The period of a simple pendulum is given by
Where L is its length and g is the local acceleration of gravity.
If the length of the pendulum was increased to 9 times (L'=9L), the new period of oscillation will be:
Taking out the square root of 9 (3):
Substituting the original T:
The new period of oscillation is D) 3.0 T
Answer:
95 %
99.7 %
Explanation:
= 166 cm = Mean
= 5 cm = Standard deviation
a) 156 cm and 176 cm
From the empirical rule 95% of all values are within 2 standard deviation of the mean, so about 95% of men are between 156 cm and 176 cm.
b) 151 cm and 181 cm
The empirical rule tells us that about 99.7% of all values are within 3 standard deviations of the mean, so about 99.7% of men are between 151 cm and 181 cm.
