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

An object that is moving must have a change in A) its speed. B) its position. C) its acceleration. D) its applied force.
denis-greek [22]

An object that's moving doesn't necessarily change its speed or acceleration. Also, the force applied to it doesn't need to change ... in fact, a moving object doesn't need ANY force applied to it in order to keep moving.

But any moving object WILL have a change in its position ... THAT's how you know it's moving, and that's WHY you say "It's moving !". (choice-B)

An airplane traveling 919 m above the ocean at 505 m/s is to drop a case of twinkies to the victims below. How much time before
Elena L [17]

Answer:

a. 13.7 s b. 6913.5 m

Explanation:

a. How much time before being directly overhead should the box be dropped?

Since the box falls under gravity we use the equation

y = ut - 1/2gt² where y = height of plane above ocean = 919 m, u = initial vertical velocity of airplane = 0 m/s, g = acceleration due to gravity = -9.8 m/s² and t = time it takes the airplane to be directly overhead.

So,

y = ut - 1/2gt²

y = 0 × t - 1/2gt²

y = 0 - 1/2gt²

y = - 1/2gt²

t² = -2y/g

t = √(-2y/g)

So, t = √(-2 × 919 m/-9.8 m/s²)

t = √(-1838 m/-9.8 m/s²)

t = √(187.551 m²/s²)

t = 13.69 s

t ≅ 13.7 s

So, the box should be dropped 13.69 s before being directly overhead.

b. What is the horizontal distance between the plane and the victims when the box is dropped?

The horizontal distance x between plane and victims, x = speed of plane × time it takes for box to drop = 505 m/s × 13.69 s = 6913.45 m ≅ 6913.5 m

Position your vehicle in the __________ of your lane before turning right and move toward the center line when you are about to
Aleksandr [31]

Answer: Right.

According to traffic rules, one should keep one's vehicle in the right side of lane if intends to turn right in near future. The purpose of this is the road safety. Also, it saves time. It would be difficult to take a right turn from the left side of the lane. It would cause inconvenience to others as well.
