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

The magnetic field at 8 cm distance from a long straight wire, carrying is 0.2x10^-5 T. How much is the electric current in the
FrozenT [24]

Answer:

The electric current in the wire is 0.8 A

Explanation:

We solve this problem by applying the formula of the magnetic field generated at a distance by a long and straight conductor wire that carries electric current, as follows:

B=\frac{2\pi*a }{u*I}

B= Magnetic field due to a straight and long wire that carries current

u= Free space permeability

I= Electrical current passing through the wire

a  = Perpendicular distance from the wire to the point where the magnetic field is located

Magnetic Field Calculation

We cleared (I) of the formula (1):

I=\frac{2\pi*a*B }{u} Formula(2)

B=0.2*10^{-5}  T = 0.2*10^{-5} \frac{weber}{m^{2} }

a  =8cm=0.08m

u=4*\pi *10^{-7} \frac{Weber}{A*m}

We replace the known information in the formula (2)

I=\frac{2\pi*0.08*0.2*10^{-5}  }{4\pi *10x^{-7} }

I=0.8 A

Answer: The electric current in the wire is 0.8 A

Suppose that in a lightning flash the potential difference between a cloud and the ground is 1.3×109 V and the quantity of charg
Georgia [21]

Answer:

A) ΔU = 3.9 × 10^(10) J

B) v = 8420.75 m/s

Explanation:

We are given;

Potential Difference; V = 1.3 × 10^(9) V

Charge; Q = 30 C

A) Formula for change in energy of transferred charge is given as;

ΔU = QV

Plugging in the relevant values gives;

ΔU = 30 × 1.3 × 10^(9)

ΔU = 3.9 × 10^(10) J

B) We are told that this energy gotten above is used to accelerate a 1100 kg car from rest.

This means that the initial potential energy will be equal to the final kinetic energy since all the potential energy will be converted to kinetic energy.

Thus;

P.E = K.E

ΔU = ½mv²

Where v is final velocity.

Plugging in the relevant values;

3.9 × 10^(10) = ½ × 1100 × v²

v² = [7.8 × 10^(8)]/11

v² = 70909090.9090909

v = √70909090.9090909

v = 8420.75 m/s

How Many Significant Digits are in 0.0217​
Bumek [7]

Answer:

<em>The number 0.0217 has 3 significant digits</em>

Explanation:

<u>Significant Digits </u>

These are digits that contribute to the significance of the number. Some rules apply to discard the non-significant digits like:

  • Leading zeros
  • Trailing zeros (with exceptions)

Our number is 0.0217 has two leading zeros before the 2 because they only occupy space to indicate the order of magnitude of the number. Only the 2,1,7 are significant digits, thus

The number 0.0217 has 3 significant digits
