A dart gun suspended by strings hangs in equilibrium. The mass of the gun is 355 grams, not including a dart. The gun fires a 57

.0 gram dart, causing it to swing backwards. The gun swings up to a height of 18.3 centimeters. What was the dart's speed in meters per second just after firing?

Answer:

dart's speed is 11.77 m/s

Explanation:

given data

mass of the gun m = 355 gram = 0.355 kg

height = 18.3 centimeters = 0.183 m

dart = 57.0 gram = 0.057 kg

to find out

dart's speed

solution

we apply here law of conservation of energy that is express as

mgh = 0.5 × m × v²      ...........1

so speed of gun will be here as

V = \sqrt{2gh}     ..................2

V = \sqrt{2*9.8*0.183}

V =  1.89 m/s

and

now we find speed of dart by use law of conservation of momentum that is

M×V  = m×v         ...............3

so speed of the dart is

v = \frac{M*V}{m}

v =  \frac{0.355*1.89}{0.057}

v = 11.77 m/s

so dart's speed is 11.77 m/s

One difference between a hypothesis and a theory is that a hypothesis
artcher [175]
A hypothesis is a tentative statement which is made to try to explain a known phenomenon but whose truth value is still uncertain, whether it is true or no depends on further research. On the other hand, a theory is made up of hypothesis which have been proven to be true so far, a theory should be able to explain future phenomena successfully

An unmarked police car traveling a constant 95 km/h is passed by a speeder. Precisely 1.00 s after the speeder passes, the polic
Montano1993 [528]

Answer:

Speed of the speeder will be 28 m/sec

Explanation:

In first case police car is traveling with a speed of 90 km/hr

We can change 90 km/hr in m/sec

So 90km/hr=\frac{90\times 1000m}{3600sec}=25m/sec

Car is traveling for 1 sec with a constant speed so distance traveled in 1 sec = 25×1 = 25 m

After that car is accelerating with a=2m/sec^2 for 7 sec

So distance traveled by car in these 7 sec

S=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2=25\times 7+\frac{1}{2}\times 2\times 7^2=224m

So total distance traveled by police car = 224 m

This distance is also same for speeder

Now let speeder is moving with constant velocity v

so 224=\left ( 1+7 \right )v

v = 28 m/sec
