Answer:

Friction force on the bullet is 58.7 N opposite to its velocity

Explanation:

As we know that initial speed of the bullet is 55 m/s

after travelling into the sand bag by distance d = 1.34 m it comes to rest

so final speed

v_f = 0

now we can use kinematics top find the acceleration of the bullet

v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 a d

so we have

0 - 55^2 = 2(a)(1.34)

a = -1128.7 m/s^2

now by Newton's II law we know that

F = ma

so we have

F = (0.052)(-1128.7)

F = -58.7 N

Which statement best describes the difference between a substance with a pH of 3.0 and a substance with a pH of 6.0?
satela [25.4K]

The statement best describes the difference between a substance with a pH of 3.0 and a substance with a pH of 6.0 is - The substance with the lower pH has 1,000 times as many hydrogen ions per volume of water.

pH is the scale or measure for the substance about its acidic or basic strength. It ranges from 0 to 6.9 which is acidic and 7.1 to 14 which is basic.

Acidic substance has high concentration of Hydrogen ions whereas, basic substance has low concentration of hydrogen ions, however for the OH⁻ ions it is reverse.

  • Concentration of hydrogen ions is inversely related to its pH
  • More hydrogen ions present, the lower the pH
  • The fewer hydrogen ions, the higher the pH We know,

pH = -log(H^{+}) then,  

=> 3 = -log (H^{+})

=> H^{+} =  (for pH = 3)  

=> pH = -log(H^{+})

=> 6 = -log (H^{+})

=> H^{+} = 10^{-6} (for pH = 6)

 Thus, The substance with the lower pH (3) has 1000 times as many hydrogen ions per volume of water.

5. Why are ceramics and plastics good insulators?
jeka57 [31]

Answer:

Here

Explanation:

They don't have free electrons moving around (delocalised electrons) so they can't conduct heat and electricity which gives them a property of good insulators. The insulators stop us having an electric shock because they don't conduct electricity as we use them to insulate metal wires and other metallic things. can i have brainliest now pls!
