A bullet with a mass ????b=13.5mb=13.5 g is fired into a block of wood at velocity ????b=253vb=253 m/s. The block is attached to

Lorico [155]

Answer:

450 grams

Explanation:

Given:

mass of the bullet, m = 13.5 g = 0.0135 kg

velocity of the bullet, v = 253 m/s

spring constant of the spring, k = 205 N/m

Compression of the spring, x = 35.0 cm = 0.35 m

Now, the kinetic energy of the moving system (bullet + board) will tend to move the spring

thus,

let velocity of the system, V

now, applying the concept of conservation of momentum, we have

mv = (M + m)V

where,

M is the mass of the block

thus,

V = mv/(M + m)

now,

the kinetic energy of the system = (1/2)(M + m)V²

or

the kinetic energy of the system = (1/2)(M + m)(mv/(m + M))²

Energy gained by the spring = (1/2)kx²

now,

equating both the energies, we get

(1/2)(M + m)(mv/(m + M))² = (1/2)kx²

or

(mv)²/(m + M) = kx²

on substituting the values, we get

(0.0135 × 253)²/(0.0135 + M) = 205 × (0.35)²

or

11.66/(0.0135 + M) = 25.1125

or

M = 0.450 kg = 450 grams

A planet’s gravity is related to which of the following? (Points : 5)

katovenus [111]

-- The gravitational force that you feel when you stand on the surface
of a planet depends on the planet's mass and size. It has nothing
to do with the planet's orbit. (Of course,"size" is also related to the
planet's mass, density, and surface area.)

-- One possible cause of deforestation is the removal of trees without
adequate replanting.

-- According to Hubble’s Law, the farther away a galaxy is, the faster
it is moving away from us

-- Electromagnetic energy can be defined as energy that moves at
the speed of light. If you conduct experiments to determine whether
the electromagnetic energy is moving in the form of particles or waves,
you find that it behaves as both.

Identify which best describes the energy used to pluck guitar strings to make sound.

Novay_Z [31]

The correct answer is: Mechanical Energy

Explanation:
As the guitar strings are plunked, the potential energy stored in the strings has an ability to make them vibrate. When the strings are vibrating, that potential energy is actually converted to the kinetic energy. Hence, the whole phenomena contains both the kinetic energy and the potential energy. The sum of kinetic energy and the potential energy is called Mechanical energy. Therefore, the correct answer is Mechanical Energy.

Two cars collide at an icy intersection and stick together afterward. The first car has a mass of 1150 kg and was approaching at

devlian [24]

Force acting during collision is internal so momentum is conserve so (initial momentum = final momentum) in both directions Two cars collide at an icy intersection and stick together afterward. The first car has a mass of 1150 kg and was approaching at 5.00 m/s due south. The second car has a mass of 750 kg and was approaching at 25.0 m/s due west. Let Vx is and Vy are final velocities of car in +x and +y direction respectively. initial momentum in +ve x (east) direction = final momentum in +ve x direction (east)

- 750*25 + 1150*0 = (750+1150)
Vx initial momentum in +ve y (north) direction = final momentum in +ve y direction (north)

750*0 - 1150*5 = (750+1150)
Vy from here you can calculate Vx and Vy so final velocity V is

V=(√V2x+V2y)

and angle make from +ve x axis is

θ=tan−1(VyVx)

 kinetic energy loss in the collision = final KE - initial KE
