True. For example the Big Bang theory; no one knows what really happened, but based on evidences that were found, it was found as a good way to explain the world's origin.

A 0.050 kg bullet strikes a 5.0 kg wooden block with a velocity of 909 m/s and embeds itself in the block which fies off its sta
serg [7]

Answer:

The final velocity of the bullet is 9 m/s.

Explanation:

We have,

Mass of a bullet is, m = 0.05 kg

Mass of wooden block is, M = 5 kg

Initial speed of bullet, v = 909 m/s

The bullet embeds itself in the block which flies off its stand. Let V is the final velocity of the bullet. The this case, momentum of the system remains conserved. So,

mv=(m+M)V\\\\V=\dfrac{mv}{m+M}\\\\V=\dfrac{0.05\times 909}{0.050+5}\\\\V=9\ m/s

So, the final velocity of the bullet is 9 m/s.

Consider a compact car that is being driven
aliina [53]

Answer:

Height h = 37.8 m

Explanation:

Given :

Velocity of car (v) = 98 km / h

Acceleration of gravity = 9.8 m/s²

Computation:

Acceleration of gravity = 9.8 m/s²

Acceleration of gravity = (98)(1,000 m / 3,600 s)

Acceleration of gravity = 27.22 m/s

By using law of conservation of energy ;

(1/2)mv² = mgh

h = v² / 2g

h = 27.22² / 2(9.8)

Height h = 37.8 m

A car starts from rest and travels for 5.8 s with a uniform acceleration of 1.6 m/s² in the negative direction. What is the fina
elena-s [515]

Answer:

Final velocity of the car will be -9.28 m/sec        

Explanation:

We have given that the car starts from the rest so initial velocity of the car u = 0 m /sec

Acceleration of the car a=1.6m/sec^2 in negative direction so acceleration will be a=-1.6m/sec^2

From first equation of motion we know that

v = u+at

So v=0+(-1.6)\times 5.8=-9.28m/sec

So final velocity will be -9.28 m/sec

According to Bernoulli's equation, the pressure in a fluid will tend to decrease if its velocity increases. Assuming that a wind
Pie

Answer:

The pressure drop predicted by Bernoulli's equation for a wind speed of 5 m/s

= 16.125 Pa

Explanation:

The Bernoulli's equation is essentially a law of conservation of energy.

It describes the change in pressure in relation to the changes in kinetic (velocity changes) and potential (elevation changes) energies.

For this question, we assume that the elevation changes are negligible; so, the Bernoulli's equation is reduced to a pressure change term and a change in kinetic energy term.

We also assume that the initial velocity of wind is 0 m/s.

This calculation is presented in the attached images to this solution.

Using the initial conditions of 0.645 Pa pressure drop and a wind speed of 1 m/s, we first calculate the density of our fluid; air.

The density is obtained to be 1.29 kg/m³.

Then, the second part of the question requires us to calculate the pressure drop for a wind speed of 5 m/s.

We then use the same formula, plugging in all the parameters, to calculate the pressure drop to be 16.125 Pa.

Hope this Helps!!!
