n 38 g rifle bullet traveling at 410 m/s buries itself in a 4.2 kg pendulum hanging on a 2.8 m long string, which makes the pend

Kitty [74]

Answer:

68cm

Explanation:

You can solve this problem by using the momentum conservation and energy conservation. By using the conservation of the momentum you get

$p_f=p_i\\mv_1+Mv_2=(m+M)v$

m: mass of the bullet

M: mass of the pendulum

v1: velocity of the bullet = 410m/s

v2: velocity of the pendulum =0m/s

v: velocity of both bullet ad pendulum joint

By replacing you can find v:

$(0.038kg)(410m/s)+0=(0.038kg+4.2kg)v\\\\v=3.67\frac{m}{s}$

this value of v is used as the velocity of the total kinetic energy of the block of pendulum and bullet. This energy equals the potential energy for the maximum height reached by the block:

$E_{fp}=E_{ki}\\\\(m+M)gh=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

g: 9.8/s^2

h: height

By doing h the subject of the equation and replacing you obtain:

$(0.038kg+4.2kg)(9.8m/s^2)h=\frac{1}{2}(0.038kg+4.2kg)(3.67m/s)^2\\\\h=0.68m$

hence, the heigth is 68cm

Which of the following would decrease the resistance to the flow of an electric current through a body?

Nookie1986 [14]

R = ρ L/A. R= resistance, ρ= resistivity, L= length of the conductor. A = area of the conductor. Resistance is directly proportional to the length of the conductor. So if length of the conductor is decreased, resistance will also decrease. Hence A is the correct option

Explain the difference in reactivity of the elements based on their electron configurations.

victus00 [196]

Well a basic explanation is that some elements have enough electrons to be considered stable. These elements do not need to react with other elements to gain more electrons. Reactive elements are no where near stable; they respond with other elements in order to become stable. The more unstable, the harsher the reaction is.

A stable, binary ionic compound exists where the cation (A) has a charge twice in magnitude than that of the anion (X). What wou

svetlana [45]

<span>The cation is positively charged and has a charge twice that of the anion, for example +2. The anion is negatively charged and in our example where the cation has a +2 charge, it must have a -1 charge. In order for the charges to equal zero, there must be two anions: -1 x 2 = -2 So the answer is D. AX2</span>

The required probability is 3/4.We have to compute the probability

P(Female |Junior) because we have to find the probability of the female student and the given condition is that the student is junior.

Determine the total number of juniors.Juniors=2+6=8

<h3>What is the probability?</h3>

Probability is the branch of mathematics concerning numerical descriptions of how likely an event is to occur, or how likely it is that a proposition is true. The probability of an event is a number between 0 and 1, where, roughly speaking, 0 indicates the impossibility of the event and 1 indicates certainty.

Since the number of females who are junior is 6, determine the required probability.

P(Female|Junior)=6/8=3/4

Therefore, the required probability is 3/4.
