A 110. g wooden block is initially at rest on a rough horizontal surface when a 12.8 g bullet is fired horizontally into (but do

es not go through) it. After the impact, the block–bullet combination slides 6.5 m before coming to rest. If the coefficient of kinetic friction between block and surface is 0.750, determine the speed of the bullet (in m/s) immediately before impact.

Answer:

94 ms⁻¹

Explanation:

V = Speed of the bullet-block combination after collision

d = distance traveled by the combination before coming to stop = 6.5 m

\mu = Coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.750

acceleration due to friction on a flat surface can be given as

a = - \mu g = - (0.750) (9.8) = - 7.35 ms^{-2}

V_{f} = Final speed of the combination = 0 m/s

Based on the above equation , we can use the kinematics equation as

V_{f}^{2} = V^{2} + 2 a d\\(0)^{2} = V^{2} + 2 (- 7.35) (6.5)\\V = 9.8 ms^{-1}

M = mass of the wooden block = 110 g

m = mass of the bullet = 12.8 g

v = Speed of the bullet before collision

Using conservation of momentum for inelastic collision , we have

m v = (m + M) V\\(12.8) v = (12.8 + 110) (9.8)\\v = 94 ms^{-1}

How much work did the movers do (horizontally) pushing a 46.0-kgkg crate 10.5 mm across a rough floor without acceleration, if t
-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

7.1 J

Explanation:

From the question,

Work done by the mover  = work done in pushing the crate + work done against friction

W = W'+Wf................. Equation 1

W = mgd+mgμd............ Equation 2

W = mgd(1+μ)................ Equation 3

Where m = mass of the crate, g = acceleration due to gravity, d = distance, μ = coefficient of  friction.

Given: m = 46 kg, d = 10.5 mm = 0.0105 m, μ = 0.5

constant: g = 9.8 m/s²

Substitute these values into equation 3

W = 46×9.8×0.0105(1+0.5)

W = 7.1 J

Identify the independent, dependent, and constant variables for different experiments.
diamong [38]

ANSWER:

IV, Type of dish detergent. DV, height of foam. CV, type of container, amount of water in container, temperature of water, time the container is agitated.

Explanation:

Independent variable(IV)- what you change during the experiment.

dependent variable(DV)- what you're measuring during an experiment. The dependent variable is DEPENDENT because it's results DEPEND on the independent variable at play.

Constant variables(CV)- things that do not change in order to isolate the tested variables as much as possible.
