A 0.0233-kg bullet is fired horizontally into a 2.41-kg wooden block attached to one end of a massless, horizontal spring (k = 8

45 N/m). The other end of the spring is fixed in place, and the spring is unstrained initially. The block rests on a horizontal, frictionless surface. The bullet strikes the block perpendicularly and quickly comes to a halt within it. As a result of this completely inelastic collision, the spring is compressed along its axis and causes the block/bullet to oscillate with an amplitude of 0.196 m. What is the speed of the bullet?

Answer:

v= 381.82\ m/s

Explanation:

Given,

mass of the bullet, m = 0.0233 Kg

Mass of the block, M = 2.41 Kg

horizontal spring constant, k = 845 N/m

Amplitude of oscillation, A = 0.196 m

Using conservation of energy when the bullet is embedded

PE = KE

\dfrac{1}{2}kA^2 = \dfrac{1}{2} Mv^2

v =A \sqrt{\dfrac{k}{M}}

v =0.196\times \sqrt{\dfrac{845}{2.41+0.0233}}

v= 3.65\ m/s

Now using conservation of  momentum to calculate the initial velocity of bullet

m V = M v

0.0233\times v=(2.41+ 0.0233)\times 3.65

v= 381.82\ m/s

to start an avalanche on a mountain slope, an artillery shell is fired with an initial velocity of 290 m/s at 53.0° above the ho
kap26 [50]
So this is easy to calculate when you split the velocity into x and y components. The x component is going to equal cos(53) * 290 and the y component is going to equal sin(53)*290.

The x location therefore is 290*cos(53)*35 = 6108.4m

The y location needs to factor in the downwards acceleration of gravity too, which is 9.81m/s^2. We need the equation dist. = V initial*time + 0.5*acceleration*time^2.

This gives us d=290*sin(53)*35 + (0.5*-9.81*35^2)=2097.5m

So your (x,y) coordinates equals (6108.4, 2097.5)

an object is producing a sound that has a wavelength in air of 2.69m. If the speed of sound in air is 346m/s, what is the freque
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

129.74 Hz

Explanation:

Given:

Wave velocity ( v ) = 346 m / sec

wavelength ( λ ) = 2.69 m

We have to calculate Frequency ( f ) :

We know:

v = λ / t [ f = 1 / t ]

v = λ f

= > f = v / λ

Putting values here we get:

= > f = 346 / 2.69 Hz

= > f = 34600 / 269 Hz

= > f = 129.74 Hz

Hence, frequency of sound is 129.74 Hz.

If a 2 liter bottle of coke cost $2.34 how much does 1mL of coke cost?​
Ainat [17]

1mL of coke cost =$0.00117.

The cost of 2-liter bottle of coke is $2.34

The unit of 1 liter is 1000ml.

Then the 2 liter coke bottle volume is 2000ml

The formula is ( divide the total price by the quantity).

$2.34/2000=0.00117.

The capacity of a liquid is measured in metric units of volume called liters and milliliters. There are four units of measurement for liquid volume: milliliters, centiliters, liters, and kiloliters. The values of these units vary even though they all refer to the same quantity.
