Answer:

b) 12.12 m/s² upwards

Explanation:

∑F = ma

21 sin 60° N = (1.5 kg) a

a = 12.12 m/s²

A 19.0-g bullet embeds itself in a 8.0-kg wooden block, which rests on a horizontal frictionless surface and is attached to a ho
Anton [14]

Answer:

d) 700 m/s

Explanation:

if k is the force constant and x is the maximum compression distance, then:

the potential energy the spring can acquire is given by:

U = 1/2×k×(x^2)

and, the kinetic energy system is given by:

K = 1/2×m×(v^2)

if Ki is the initial kinetic energy of the system, Ui is the initial kinetic energy of the system and Kf and Uf are final kinetic and potential energy respectively then, According to energy conservation:

initial energy  = final energy

            Ki +Ui = Kf +Uf

Ui = 0 J and Kf = 0J

                  Ki = Uf

   1/2×m×(v^2) = 1/2×k×(x^2)

         m×(v^2) = k×(x^2)

                v^2 = k×(x^2)/m

                       = (500)×((21×10^-2)^2)/(19×10^-3 + 8)

                       = 2.75

                    v = 1.66 m/s

the v is the final velocity of the bullet block system, if m1 is the mass of bullet and M is the mass of the block and v1 is the initial velocity of the bullet while V is the initial velocity of the block, then by conservation linear momentum:

m1×v1 + M×V = v×(m1 + M) but V = 0 because the block is stationary, initially.

          m1×v1 = v×(m1 + M)

                v1 =  v×(m + M)/(m1)

                    =  (1.66)×(19×10^-3 + 8)/(19×10^-3)

                    = 699.86 m/s

                    ≈ 700 m/s

Therefore, the velocity of the bullet just before it hits the block is 700 m/s.

What causes the tail of a comet to become visible?
nlexa [21]

Answer:

The correct answer is option C. Sun.

Explanation:

The tail of a comet as well as the comma are visible thanks to the influence of sunlight on these objects.

If there is a case that these objects cross the inner Solar System,<u> then they will be visible from Earth</u>. The reason why this occurs is that as the comet approaches the internal solar system, the materials that are inside the comet vaporize and flow out of the nucleus thanks to solar radiation, and while they do carry dust with them.

This dust is the one that reflects sunlight directly, while the <u>gases shine because of ionization. </u>

Usually we will need a telescope to see a comet, although there are some that can be seen with the naked eye.

How can seismographs be used to predict hurricane intensity?
nikdorinn [45]

Answer: The earth is a noisy place. Seismometers, which measure ground movements to detect earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and manmade explosives, are constantly recording smaller vibrations caused by ocean waves, rushing rivers, and industrial activity.
