He shoots the tree stump, which has a mass of (M), with a bullet of mass (m) traveling at some velocity (vbullet), and the bulle

t lodges itself inside the tree stump before the system of objects slides along the ice. What is the speed of the tree stump-bullet system immediately after the collision?

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

mass of tree stump is M

mass bullet is m

velocity of bullet is v

Conserving momentum for bullet and tree stump

Initial Momentum P_i=mv

Suppose v_0 is the velocity of the system

Final Momentum P_f=(M+m)v_0

Initial momentum =Final Momentum

mv=(m+M)v_0

v_0=\frac{mv}{m+M}

Why is water always used in energy generation (water -> steam -> turbine) instead of a liquid with a lower specific heat c
frez [133]

There are multiple reasons for this. First of all, water is available in almost every place on the Earth. It doesn't pollute the air, doesn't cause health use and is easily handle.

Other factor is the fact that water has a really high specific heat. This means that water, and more specifically steam, can aborb and transport more energy. A lower heat capacity would imply the need to boil more of the liquid to obtain the same amount of energy. This combine with the fact that water expands at a large rate when boiling, combine with everything mentioned previously, and you get a liquid with all the characteristics that a efficient turbine requires to work.

Reflection: a change in direction of a wave at a boundary between two different media.
sentence: i saw my reflection in the mirror.

refraction: the bending of light as it passes from one transparent substance into another.
sentence: when light goes through glass, it’s a refraction.

diffraction: the bending of waves around the corners of an obstacle.
sentence: spaced tracks on a CD act as a diffraction.

absorption: the process or action by which one thing absorbs or is absorbed by another.
sentence: heat waves hitting the beach usually give most of their energy to the sand.

interference: when two waves lay on each other and their energies are either added together or cancelled out.
sentence: interference waves can be observed with all types of waves.

standing wave: two waves moving in opposite directions. they both have the same amplitude or frequency.
sentence: plucking the string of a guitar is an example of standing waves.

resonance: increased amplitude that occurs when the frequency of a force is equal or close to a natural frequency.
sentence:a buzz in your car that only occurs at a certain speed is an example or resonance.

the moon revolves around the earth in a nearly circular orbit kept by gravitational force exerted by the earth work done will be
rodikova [14]

Answer:

Zero because the applied force is perpendicular to the motion of the object.

No work is done on an object moving is a circular path about a central attractive force.

Any work done in such a case would result in a change in the orbit.
