We will apply the conservation of linear momentum to answer this question.
Whenever there is an interaction between any number of objects, the total momentum before is the same as the total momentum after. For simplicity's sake we mostly use this equation to keep track of the momenta of two objects before and after a collision:
m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ = m₁v₁' + m₂v₂'
Note that v₁ and v₁' is the velocity of m₁ before and after the collision.
Let's choose m₁ and v₁ to represent the bullet's mass and velocity.
m₂ and v₂ represents the wood block's mass and velocity.
The bullet and wood will stick together after the collision, so their final velocities will be the same. v₁' = v₂'. We can simplify the equation by replacing these terms with a single term v'
m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ = m₁v' + m₂v'
m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ = (m₁+m₂)v'
Let's assume the wood block is initially at rest, so v₂ is 0. We can use this to further simplify the equation.
m₁v₁ = (m₁+m₂)v'
Here are the given values:
m₁ = 0.005kg
v₁ = 500m/s
m₂ = 5kg
Plug in the values and solve for v'
0.005×500 = (0.005+5)v'
v' = 0.4995m/s
v' ≅ 0.5m/s
Answer:
- A book lying on a table - Balanced force
- An airplane cruising in level flight - Balanced
- A rock falling from a cliff - Unbalanced force
- A bridge collapsing in an earthquake - Unbalanced force
- A man sitting on a park bench - Balanced force
- A space shuttle taking off - Unbalanced force
- A car maintaining a constant speed on a straight road - Balanced force
- An airplane landing - Unbalanced force
Explanation:
Usually, one or more forces act on a body at an instant of time. When these forces acting on a body and bring the body in the equilibrium position, the force is said to be balanced. The unbalanced force changes the equilibrium state of the body.
As in the case of an airplane cruising in a level flight, the weight of the plane will be equal to the lift force and the thrust is equal to the drag. So the plane is experiencing a balanced force.
Option a) 0.8 m/s² is the correct answer
the acceleration of the motorcycle is 0.8 m/s²
Given the data in the question;
Since the motorcycle stopped then, initial speed u = 0 m/s
final speed v = 12 m/s
time t = 15 s
acceleration = ?
To get our acceleration, we use the first equation of motion.
This equation states that;
so, we simply substitute in our given values
so we find a
Therefore, the acceleration of the motorcycle is 0.8 m/s²
Option a) 0.8 m/s² is the correct answer
