Form concentric circles around the wire
Question
What was the initial momentum of the bullet before collision?
Answer:
10 Kg.m/s
Explanation:
Momentum is a product of velocity of an object in m/s and its mass in kgs hence numerically expressed as p=mv where p is momentum, v is velocity and m is mass. Substituting m for 0.2 kg and v for 50 m/s then p=0.2*50=10 kg.m/s
Same magnitude (1000N) and opposite direction
you may also answer -1000 N
To solve this problem we will begin by finding the pressure through density and average depth. Later we will find the Force, by means of the relation of the pressure and the area.
Here,
h = Depth average
= Density
Moreover,
Replacing,
Finally the force
Net force acting on mass = 20 - 15 = 5N. ( subtracted cuz friction always opposes the motion i.e it always acts in direction opposite to the motion of the object). According to Newton's 2nd law of motion, F(net) = ma. a =F (net) / m = 5/10 = 0.5 m/s^2. Hope it helps :)
