A bullet of mass 0.107 kg traveling horizontally at a speed of 300 m/s embeds itself in a block of mass 3 kg that is sitting at

rest on a nearly frictionless surface. What was the transfer of energy (microscopic work) from the surroundings into the block+bullet system during the collision? (Remember that represents energy transfer due to a temperature difference between a system and its surroundings.)

Answer:

165.77J

Explanation:

M₁ = 0.107kg

u₁ = 300m/s

m₂ = 3kg

u₂ = 0

v =

m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = (m₁ + m₂)V

(0.107*300) + 0 = (0.107 + 3)V

V = 32.1 / 3.107 = 10.33m/s

kinetic energy of the system after collision =

½m1v² + ½m2v²

K.E = ½(m1 + m2)v²

K.E = ½(0.107+3) * 10.33²

K.E = 165.77J

What is used as evidence for sea-floor spreading?
raketka [301]

Answer:

Sea-floor spreading occurs in the oceanic ridges. In there, volcanic activity, together with the gradual movement of the bottom, form new oceanic crust. This allows a better understanding of the continental drift explained by the theory of plate tectonics.

The greatest evidence for Sea-floor spreading is the oceanic trenches, the oceanic ridges, the magma protruding to the surface and the new seafloor.

In previous theories,  continents were assumed to be transported across the sea. Harry Hess, in the 1960s, proposed the idea that the seabed itself moves  as it expands from a central point. The theory is now accepted, and the phenomenon is thought to be caused by convection currents in the upper layer of the mantle.

A fisherman has caught a very large, 5.0 kg fish from a dock that is 2.0 m above the water. He is using lightweight fishing line
sergeinik [125]

Answer:

The least amount of time in which the fisherman can raise the fish to the  dock without losing it is t= 2 seconds.

Explanation:

m= 5 kg

h= 2m

Fmax= 54 N

g= 9.8 m/s²

W= m * g

W= 49 N

F= Fmax - W

F= 5 N

F=m*a

a= F/m

a= 1 m/s²

h= a * t²/2

t= √(2*h/a)

t= 2 seconds
