A 5.00 gram bullet moving at 600 m/s penetrates a tree trunk to a depth of 4.00 cm.
Crazy boy [7]
A) Work energy relation;
 Work =ΔKE ; work done = Force × distance, while, Kinetic energy = 1/2 MV²
 F.s = 1/2mv²
F× 4×10^-2 = 1/2 × 5 ×10^-3 × (600)²
 F = 900/0.04
    = 22500 N
Therefore, force is 22500 N

b) From newton's second law of motion;
 F = Ma
Thus; a = F/m
             = 22500/(5×10^-3)
             = 4,500,000 m/s²
But v = u-at
  0 = 600- 4500,000 t
t = 1.33 × 10^-4 seconds

A tank is full of water. Find the work W required to pump the water out of the spout. (Use 9.8 m/s2 for g. Use 1000 kg/m3 as the
Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

W = 1.06 MJ

Explanation:

- We will use differential calculus to solve this problem.

- Make a differential volume of water in the tank with thickness dx. We see as we traverse up or down the differential volume of water the side length is always constant, hence, its always 8.

- As for the width of the part w we see that it varies as we move up and down the differential element. We will draw a rectangle whose base axis is x and vertical axis is y. we will find the equation of the slant line that comes out to be y = 0.5*x. And the width spans towards both of the sides its going to be 2*y = x.

- Now develop and expression of Force required:

                                             F = p*V*g

                                             F = 1000*(2*0.5*x*8*dx)*g

                                             F = 78480*x*dx

- Now, the work done is given by:

                                             W = F.s

- Where, s is the distance from top of hose to the differential volume:

                                             s = (5 - x)

- We have the work as follows:

                                            dW = 78400*x*(5-x)dx

- Now integrate the following express from 0 to 3 till the tank is empty:

                                           W = 78400*(2.5*x^2 - (1/3)*x^3)

                                           W = 78400*(2.5*3^2 - (1/3)*3^3)

                                           W = 78400*13.5 = 1058400 J

Two objects are raised off the ground and one of them is three times as high as the other one. How do their potential energy com
DochEvi [55]

The potential energy of any object depends on its mass as well as its height off the ground.

Potential energy = mass x gravity x height.

We don't have enough information to compare the potential energies of these two objects because we don't know their masses.

If a 54 kg sprinter can accelerate from a standing start to a speed of 10 m/s in 3 s, what average power is generated?
lora16 [44]

Answer:

Power, P = 600 watts

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of sprinter, m = 54 kg

Speed, v = 10 m/s

Time taken, t = 3 s

We need to find the average power generated. The work done divided by time taken is called power generated by the sprinter i.e.

P=\dfrac{W}{t}

Work done is equal to the change in kinetic energy of the sprinter.

P=\dfrac{\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2}{t}

P=\dfrac{\dfrac{1}{2}\times 54\ kg\times (10\ m/s)^2}{3\ s}

P = 900 watts

So, the average power generated by the sprinter is 900 watts. Hence, this is the required solution.
