Answer:

u= 20.09 m/s

Explanation:

Given that

m = 0.02 kg

M= 2 kg

h= 0.2 m

Lets take initial speed of bullet = u m/s

The final speed of the system will be zero.

From energy conservation

1/2 m u²+ 0 = 0+ (m+M) g h

m u²=2 (m+M) g h

By putting the values

0.02 x u² = 2 (0.02+2) x 10 x 0.2       ( take g=10 m/s²)

u= 20.09 m/s

Answer:

9.73 x 10⁻¹⁰ m

Explanation:

According to Heisenberg uncertainty principle

Uncertainty in position x uncertainty in momentum ≥ h / 4π

Δ X x Δp ≥ h / 4π

Δp = mΔV

ΔV = Uncertainty in velocity

= 2 x 10⁻⁶ x 3 / 100

= 6 x 10⁻⁸

mass m = 0.9 x 10⁻¹⁵ x 10⁻³ kg

m = 9 x 10⁻¹⁹

Δp = mΔV

= 9 x 10⁻¹⁹ x 6 x 10⁻⁸

= 54 x 10⁻²⁷

Δ X x Δp ≥ h / 4π

Δ X x  54 x 10⁻²⁷ ≥ h / 4π

Δ X = h / 4π x 1 /  54 x 10⁻²⁷

= \frac{6.6\times10^{-34}}{4\times3.14\times54\times10^{-27}}

= 9.73 x 10⁻¹⁰ m

7. A golfer hits a golf ball a through a horizontal displacement of 80m. The time of flight for the ball was 1.8
Darya [45]

Answer:

44.4 m/s

Explanation:

d = 80 m, t = 1.8 s, find v

d = v*t

v = d/t = 80/1.8 = 44.4 m/s

Give reasons.<br>a) Sunlight does not fall on the ground where cloud forms shadow.​
Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

Sunlight passing through a cloud is scattered in various directions. Some photons eventually find their way out the bottom of the cloud, some are reflected upwards, and some are absorbed, serving to warm the cloud. Since only a fraction of the light makes it to ground level, you have a shadow.

Explanation:

Hope it helps you
