In a Millikan oil-drop experiment, the condenser plates are spaced 2.00 cm apart, the potential across the plates is 4000 V, the
rise or fall distance is 4.00 mm, the density of the oil droplets is 0.800 g/cm3 , and the viscosity of the air is 1.81 105 kg m1 s 1 . The average time of fall in the absence of an electric field is 15.9 s. The following different rise times in seconds are observed when the field is turned on: 36.0, 17.3, 24.0, 11.4, 7.54. (a) Find the radius and mass of the drop used in this experiment. (b) Calculate the charge on each drop, and show that charge is quantized by considering both the size of each charge and the amount of charge gained (lost) when the rise time changes. (c) Determine the electronic charge from these data. You may assume that e lies between 1.5 and 2.0 1019 C. 7.

Answer:
The increase in temperature of the bullet is 351.1 kelvin
Explanation:
First, we should find the kinetic energy of the bullet is:
with m the mass and v the velocity.
Now we know that half of the kinetic energy of the bullet is transformed into internal energy, by second's law of thermodynamics that means heat (Q) to raise bullet temperature (T), so:
To know what the increase in temperature is, we should use specific heat of lead:
The equation that relates specific heat, change in temperature and mass is:
solving for :
