An 8.0g bullet, moving at 400 m/s, goes through a stationary block of wood in 4.0 x 10^-4s, emerging at a speed of 100 m/s. (a)

what average force did the wood exert on the bullet? (b) how thick is the wood?

Ierofanga [76]4 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Initial velocity (u) of the Bullet = 400 m/sec

Final velocity (v) of the Bullet = 100 m/sec

Bullet passed through the block in (t) = 0.0004 sec  

Using 1st Equation of motion :

400 m/s = 100 m/s - a (0.0004)

<em>Deceleration of Bullet = 750,000 m/sec^2 </em>

<em />

(a) F (force exerted by the wooden block on the bullet) = F (force exerted by the bullet on the wooden block)

F = m * a = 0.008 * 750,000<em> = </em>6000 N

(b) Using 3rd Equation of motion :

v^{2} = u^{2} - 2aS

10000 = 160000 - 2 * 750,000 * S

Thickness of wood (S) = 0.1 m

Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer:

a) the charge of an electron is equivalent to the magnitude of the elementary charge but barring a negative sign since the side of the elementary charge is roughly 1.602 * 10 - 19 Columbus then the charge of the electronic is-1.602 * 10 - 19

b) b=2T on the electron moving in the magnetic field

A transform boundary occurs where two tectonic plates _____.?
gladu [14]

Where they slide over each other.

Transform boundaries are formed or occur when two plates slide past each other in a sideways motion.  They do not tear or crunch into each other (but the rock in between them may be ground up) and therefore none of the spectacular features are seen such as occur in divergent and convergent boundaries.

In a transform boundary, neither plate is added to at the boundary nor destroyed.  They are marked in some places by features like  stream beds that have been split in half and the two halves moved in opposite directions.

Which of these would not contribute to a global increase in temperature?
Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer:

planting trees - increasing the amount of animal life on earth

Explanation:

from all the other options given, all except planting trees will increase global temperature.

1. deforestation: this removes vegetative cover and the amount of oxygen in the atmosphere.

2. increasing the use of gasoline burning vehicles: burning gasoline produces carbon dioxide which is a green house gas which traps heat in the atmosphere and causes global warming

3. increasing the industrial release of carbon dioxide: carbon dioxide is released when gasoline is burned in industries, this in-turn causes global warming.

Trees produces oxygen and sucks in carbon dioxide which causes global warming. more trees mean more oxygen and less carbon dioxide which translates to less global increase in temperature
