Answer:

217.43298 m/s

Explanation:

m_1 = Mass of bullet = 19 g

m_2 = Mass of bob = 1.3 kg

L = Length of pendulum = 2.3 m

\theta = Angle of deflection = 60°

u = Velocity of bullet

Combined velocity of bullet and bob is given by

v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2aL(1-cos\theta)+u^2}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2\times 9.81\times (1-cos60)+0^2}\\\Rightarrow v=3.13209\ m/s

As the momentum is conserved

m_1u=(m_1+m_2)v\\\Rightarrow u=\frac{(m_1+m_2)v}{m_1}\\\Rightarrow v=\frac{(0.019+1.3)\times 3.13209}{0.019}\\\Rightarrow v=217.43298\ m/s

The speed of the bullet is 217.43298 m/s

The magnetic coils of a tokamak fusion reactor are in the shape of a toroid having an inner radius of 0.700 m and an outer radiu
iragen [17]

Answer:

(a) 11.3 T

(b) 6.09 T

Explanation:

Current, I = 14 kA = 14000 A

number of turns, N = 900

inner radius, r = 0.7 m

outer radius, R = 1.3 m

The magnetic field due to a circular coil is given by

B = \frac{\mu o}{4\pi}\times \frac{2 N\pi I}{R}

(a) The magnetic field due to the inner radius is

B = 10^{-7}\times \frac{2\times 900\times 3.14\times 14000}{0.7}\\\\B = 11.3 T

(b) The magnetic field due to the outer radius is

B = 10^{-7}\times \frac{2\times 900\times 3.14\times 14000}{1.3}\\\\B = 6.09 T

If only an external force can change the velocity of a body, how can the internal force of the brakes bring a car to rest? 1. It
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

4. It is the force of the road on the tires (an external force) that stops the car.

Explanation:

If there is no friction between the road and the tires, the car won't stop.

You can see this, for example, when there is ice on the road. You can still apply the brakes (internal force), but since there is no friction (external force) the car won't stop.

The force of the brakes on the wheels is not what makes the car stop, it is the friction of the road against still tires that makes it stop.
