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

A (B + 25.0) g mass is hung on a spring. As a result, the spring stretches (8.50 A) cm. If the object is then pulled an addition
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

Time period of the osculation will be 2.1371 sec

Explanation:

We have given mass m = (B+25)

And the spring is stretched by (8.5 A )

Here A = 13 and B = 427

So mass m = 427+25 = 452 gram = 0.452 kg

Spring stretched x= 8.5×13 = 110.5 cm

As there is additional streching of spring by 3 cm

So new x = 110.5+3 = 113.5 = 1.135 m

Now we know that force is given by F = mg

And we also know that F = Kx

So mg=Kx

K=\frac{mg}{x}=\frac{0.452\times 9.8}{1.135}=3.90N/m

Now we know that \omega =\sqrt{\frac{K}{m}}

So \frac{2\pi }{T} =\sqrt{\frac{K}{m}}

\frac{2\times 3.14 }{T} =\sqrt{\frac{3.90}{0.452}}

T=2.1371sec

A proton and an alpha particle are momentarily at rest at adistance r from each other. They then begin to move apart.Find the sp
Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

The unknown quantities are:

E and F

The final velocity of the proton is:

√(8/3) k e^2/(m*r)

Explanation:

Hello!

We can solve this problem using conservation of energy and momentum.

Since both particles are at rest at the beginning, the initial energy and momentum are:

Ei = k (q1q2)/r

pi = 0

where k is the coulomb constant (= 8.987×10⁹ N·m²/C²)

and q1 = e and q2 = 2e

When the distance between the particles doubles, the energy and momentum are:

Ef = k (q1q2)/2r + (1/2)m1v1^2 + (1/2)m2v2^2

pf = m1v1 + m2v2

with m1 = m,   m2 = 4m,    v1=vf_p,    v2 = vf_alpha

The conservation momentum states that:

pi = pf      

Therefore:

m1v1 + m2v2 = 0

That is:

v2 = (1/4) v1

The conservation of energy states that:

Ei = Ef

Therefore:

k (q1q2)/r = k (q1q2)/2r + (1/2)m1v1^2 + (1/2)m2v2^2

Replacing

      m1 =  m, m2 = 4m, q1 = e, q2 = 2e

      and   v2 = (1/4)v1

We get:

(1/2)mv1^2 = k e^2/r + (1/2)4m(v1/4)^2 =  k e^2/r + (1/8)mv1^2

(3/8) mv1^2 = k e^2/r

v1^2 = (8/3) k e^2/(m*r)
