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

If the only forces acting on a 2.0kg mass are F1 = (3i-8j)N and F2 = (5i+3j)N, what is the magnitude of the acceleration of the
belka [17]

Answer: 4.7m/s²

Explanation:

According to newton's first law,

Force = mass × acceleration

Since we are given more the one force, we will take the resultant of the two vectors.

Mass = 2.0kg

F1+F2 = (3i-8j)+(5i+3j)

Adding component wise, we have;

F1+F2 = 3i+5i-8j+3j

F1+F2 = 8i-5j

Resultant of the sum of the forces will be;

R² = (8i)²+(-5j)²

Since i.i = j.j = 1

R² = 8²+5²

R² = 64+25

R² = 89

R = √89

R = 9.4N

Our resultant force = 9.4N

Substituting in the formula

F = ma

9.4 = 2a

a = 9.4/2

a = 4.7m/s²

Therefore, magnitude of the acceleration of the particle is 4.7m/s²

The sound wave produced from playing the A key one octave above the "Middle C" on the plano produces a sound wave with a frequen
natita [175]

Answer:

<u>Frequency</u>- number of wave cycles that occur in a given amount of time.

<u>Pitch</u>- number of wavelengths in a given amount of time.

<u>Amplitude</u>- fluctuation or displacement of a wave from its mean value. That means how high or low they are away from the center line.

<u>Volume</u>- The perception of loudness from the intensity of a sound wave. The higher the intensity of a sound, the louder it is perceived in our ears, and the higher volume it has.

<u>Wavelength</u>- the distance between the tops of the "waves".

What is the final velocity of the ball that is dropped from a height of 200m?
Hoochie [10]

The final velocity of the ball that is dropped from a height of 200m is v = 44.73 m/s .

<h3>What is velocity with example?</h3>

The rate at which an object is travelling in one direction is referred to as its velocity. an automobile traveling north on a highway, or a rocket taking off. Its velocity vector's absolute value always is equal to the motion's speed because it is a scalar.

<h3>Briefing:</h3>

Given the initial velocity of the ball (u) =  0

Distance travelled by the ball (s) = 200m

Acceleration (a) = 10 m/s²

As we know:

v² = u² + 2as

Putting values:

v² = 0+2 × (10 m/s²) × (200 m)

v = 44.73 m/s.

Which describes how to generate a real image of an object using a concave mirror?
Naddika [18.5K]

A concave mirror is curved inward in the middle, more like a cave. Because the mirror is curved inward, the angle of the light surface can be focused similar to that of the camera. They can form real images that are projected out in front of the mirror at the place where light focuses. When the object is located at the center of the curvature the image formed will also be at the curvature. The image will be inverted and the magnification value is equal to 1 which will become a real image because the ray of light converges at the location of the formed image.
