Answer:
Faster particles bump into slower particles ( A )
Explanation:
Thermal conduction in a solid involves the microscopic collision of particles in the solid and this particles are made up of electrons, molecules and atoms. the collisions occur when faster particles collide with slower particles and this happens in a disorganized manner.
when cannot say for sure in what direction each of the particles is moving but there is surely collisions between particles which in turn results to transfer of kinetic and potential energies
Answer:
the magnitude of the velocity of the block just after impact is 2.598 m/s and the original speed of the bullect is 324.76m/s.
Explanation:
a) Kinetic energy of block = potential energy in spring
½ mv² = ½ kx²
Here m stands for combined mass (block + bullet),
which is just 1 kg. Spring constant k is unknown, but you can find it from given data:
k = 0.75 N / 0.25 cm
= 3 N/cm, or 300 N/m.
From the energy equation above, solve for v,
v = v √(k/m)
= 0.15 √(300/1)
= 2.598 m/s.
b) Momentum before impact = momentum after impact.
Since m = 1 kg,
v = 2.598 m/s,
p = 2.598 kg m/s.
This is the same momentum carried by bullet as it strikes the block. Therefore, if u is bullet speed,
u = 2.598 kg m/s / 8 × 10⁻³ kg
= 324.76 m/s.
Hence, the magnitude of the velocity of the block just after impact is 2.598 m/s and the original speed of the bullect is 324.76m/s.
