To view an interactive solution to a problem that is similar to this one, select Interactive Solution 7.24. A 0.0129-kg bullet i

s fired straight up at a falling wooden block that has a mass of 1.17 kg. The bullet has a speed of 767 m/s when it strikes the block. The block originally was dropped from rest from the top of a building and had been falling for a time t when the collision with the bullet occurs. As a result of the collision, the block (with the bullet in it) reverses direction, rises, and comes to a momentary halt at the top of the building. Find the time t.

Answer:

t=0.42s

Explanation:

Here you have an inelastic collision. By the conservation of the momentum you have:

m_1v_1+m_2v_2=(m_1+m_2)v

m1: mass of the bullet

m2: wooden block mass

v1: velocity of the bullet

v2: velocity of the wooden block

v: velocity of bullet and wooden block after the collision.

By noticing that after the collision, both objects reach the same height from where the wooden block was dropped, you can assume that v is equal to the negative of v2. In other words:

m_1(-v_1)+m_2v_2=(m1+m2)(-v2)

Where you assumed that the negative direction is upward. By replacing and doing v2 the subject of the formula you get:

-(0.0129kg)(767m/s)+(1.17kg)v_2=(1.1829kg)(-v_2)\\\\v_2=4.20m/s

Now, with this information you can use the equation for the final speed of an accelerated motion and doing t the subject of the formula. IN other words:

v_2=v_o+gt\\\\t=\frac{v_2-v_o}{g}=\frac{4.2m/s-0m/s}{9.8m/s^2}=0.42s

hence, the time is t=0.42 s

Magnesium is a highly flammable element which is easily combustible in the presence of oxygen:
NemiM [27]

4 atoms

Explanation:

On the product side, we expect to find 4 atoms of the product.

    An atom is the smallest indivisible particle that takes part in a chemical reaction.

    An element is a distinct substance that cannot be split-up into simpler substances. Such substances consist of only one kind of atom.

    In this reaction we have:

       2 elements:             Mg                O

on the reactant side:

   We have two moles of Mg:   2 atoms of Mg

            1 mole of oxygen gas:   2 atoms of O

                             total atoms:    4 atoms

According to the law of conservation of matter "in a chemical reaction, matter is neither created nor destroyed".

We expect to find 4 atoms of products which is MgO on the product side.

              2Mg + O₂ →  2MgO + heat

Which of the following is responsible for the overall integration of the autonomic nervous system (ANS)?
Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

D. hypothalamus

Explanation:

The autonomic nervous system (ANS) is a component of the peripheral nervous system that is in charge of the involuntary functions, this means it regulates the flight-or-fight response, heart and respiratory rate, sexual arousal, urination, etc.<em> The hypothalamus is the integrator of these functions, it receives the information from the nervous system and responds to it.</em>

I hope you find this information useful and interesting! Good luck!

Edwin Hubble calculated the expansion rate of the universe. On what evidence did he base his calculation?
algol [13]

Edwin Hubble calculated the expansion rate of the universe. The evidence that he base his calculation is the differences in redshift for galaxies. The answer is letter B. the red shift of galaxies was directly proportional to the distance of the galaxy from earth.  It means that bodies farther away from Earth were moving away faster. The Hubble’s constant is the ratio of distance to redshift equal to 170 kilometers per second per light year of distance.

A box-shaped wood stove has dimensions of 0.75 mx 1.2 m x 0.4 m, an
Tresset [83]

Answer:

8.4 kW

Explanation:

Using the Stefan-Boltzmann law,

P = εAσT4

Where:  

P: Radiation Energy

ε: Emissivity of the Surface. Check emissivity table below of common materials.

A: Surface Area, in m^2.

σ: Stefan-Boltzmann Constant, σ=5.67 × 10-8 W/m2•K4

T:  Temperature

Plugging in values,

P = 0.85 x 3.328 x 5.67 x 10^(-8) x 205

P = 8383 W or 8.4 kW
