Answer:

option D  

Explanation:

given,

mass of the rifle,M = 2 Kg

mass of the bullet , m = 0.01 Kg

speed of the bullet, v = 200 m/s

recoil velocity ,v'= ?

initial velocity of bullet and rifle is zero.

using conservation of energy

Mu + m u' = M v'+ m v

0 + 0  = 2 x v' + 0.01 x 200

2 v' = -2

   v' = -1 m/s

negative sign represent the velocity of rifle is in opposite direction of bullet.

hence, the correct answer is option D

Answer:

tex]2.898\times 10^{-7}\ \text{m}[/tex] ultraviolet region

2.898\times 10^{-10}\ \text{m} x-ray region

Explanation:

T = Temperature

b = Constant of proportionality = 2.898\times 10^{-3}\ \text{m K}

\lambda = Wavelength

T=10^4\ \text{K}

From Wein's law we have

\lambda=\dfrac{b}{T}\\\Rightarrow \lambda=\dfrac{2.898\times 10^{-3}}{10^4}\\\Rightarrow \lambda=2.898\times 10^{-7}\ \text{m}

The wavelength of the radiation will be 2.898\times 10^{-7}\ \text{m} and it is in the ultraviolet region.

T=10^7\ \text{K}

\lambda=\dfrac{2.898\times 10^{-3}}{10^7}\\\Rightarrow \lambda=2.898\times 10^{-10}\ \text{m}

The wavelength of the radiation will be 2.898\times 10^{-10}\ \text{m} and it is in the x-ray region.

Write a brief essay describing how Newton’s Laws explain how a rocket in space can move objects
statuscvo [17]
The First Law describes how an object acts when no force is acting upon it. So, rockets stay still until a force is applied to move them. Likewise, once they're in motion, they won't stop until a force is applied. Newton's Second Law tells us that the more mass an object has, the more force is needed to move it. A larger rocket will need stronger forces (eg. more fuel) to make it accelerate. The space shuttles required seven pounds of fuel for every pound of payload they carry. Newton's Third Law states that "every action has an equal and opposite reaction". In a rocket, burning fuel creates a push on the front of the rocket pushing it forward.
