Answer:

v' = -0.0906 m/s

Explanation:

given,

mass of cannon, M = 2240 Kg

mass of the ball, m = 15.5 Kg

speed of cannon ball, v = 131 m/s

speed of he cannon = ?

initial speed of cannon and the cannon ball is equal to 0 m/s

using conservation of energy

(M+m)V = M v' + m v

(M+m) x 0= 22400 v' + 15.5 x 131

22400 v' = -2030.5

v' = -0.0906 m/s

negative sign represent the canon will move in opposite direction of the ball.

hence, speed of cannon is equal to 0.0906 m/s

A coil of wire with 50 turns lies in the plane of the page and has an initial area of 0.180 m2. The coil is now stretched to hav
butalik [34]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,

Number of turns of coil

N = 50 turns

Initial area of plane

A1 = 0.18 m²

The coil it stretch to a no area in time t = 0.1s

No area implies that the final area is 0, A2 = 0 m²

Constant magnetic field strength

B = 1.51 T

EMF?

EMF is given as

Using far away Lenz law

ε = —N• dΦ/dt

Where Φ = BA

Then,

ε = —N• d(BA)/dt

Since B is constant,

ε = —N•B dA/dt

ε = —N•B (∆A/∆t)

ε = —N•B(A2—A1)/(t2-t1)

ε = —50 × 1.51 (0—0.18)/(0.1—0)

ε =—75.5 × —0.18 / 0.1

ε = 135.9 V

The induced EMF is 135.9V

Fleming’s left hand rule stated that if the index finger points toward magnetic flux, the thumb towards the motion of the conductor, then the middle finger points towards the induced emf.

Since the area lines in the plane, then the induced emf will be out of the page

Difference between incident ray and refracted ray ​
natima [27]

Answer:

** incident ray.

Incident ray - the ray of light falling on the surface AB is called the incident ray

reflected ray.

** Reflected ray - the incident ray bouncing back in the same medium after striking the reflecting surface is called reflected ray.

Do we know which has more potential energy? object A or B? Best answer with reasoning gets brainliest.​
babymother [125]

Answer:

Object C has the most potential energy.

Between A and B, we do not know which has more potential energy.

Explanation:

We know the object with the most potential energy and this is the object at C.

Potential energy is the energy due to the position of a body above the ground surface.

The higher a body is above ground, the more its potential energy.

 Potential energy  = mass x acceleration due to gravity x height

So;

 Object C has the most potential energy.

Between A and B, we do not know which has more potential energy.

This is because, the height and mass of the objects are not quantified using numbers.

Potential energy is a function of mass and height and acceleration due to gravity but acceleration due gravity is a constant.

A 1230 kg pile driver is used to drive a steel I-beam into the ground. The pile driver falls 7.07 m before contacting the beam,
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

F_{avg} = 5.48 \times 10^5 N

Explanation:

As we know that initial and final speed of the beam is zero

so we can use energy conservation here to find the applied force

So we will have

work done by all the forces = change in kinetic energy of the beam

so we will have

W_g + W_{beam} = \Delta K

mg(L + x) - F_{avg} x = 0

1230(9.81)(7.07 + 0.159) = F_{avg} (0.159)

so we will have

87227.3 = F_{avg} (0.159)

F_{avg} = 5.48 \times 10^5 N
