A 22-g bullet traveling 265 m/s penetrates a 1.9 kg block of wood and emerges going 125 m/s .
Usimov [2.4K]

The body moves at a velocity of 1.62m/s after the bullet emerges.

<h3>Given:</h3>

Mass of bullet, m_1 = 22g

                               = 0.022 kg

Mass of the block, m_2 = 1.9 kg

Velocity of bullet , v_1 = 265 m/s

v_2 = 0

According to the law of collision which states that the momentum of the body before the collision is equal to the momentum of the body after the collision.

After penetration;

v^{'}_1 =125 m/s

v^{'}_2=?

The formula for calculating the collision of a body is expressed as:

p = mv

m is the mass of the body

v is the velocity of the body

∴ Momentum before = Momentum after

Substitute the given parameters into the formula as shown:

   m_1v_1+ m_2v_2 = m_1v^{'}_1+ m_2v^{'}_2\\0.022* 265 + 0 = 0.022*125+1.9*v^{'}_2\\5.83 = 1.9 v^{'}_2\\v^{'}_2 = 1.62 m/s

Therefore, It moves with a velocity of 1.62 m/s.

The speed of light in a transparent medium is 0.6 times that of its speed in vacuum. Find the refractive index of the medium.
grin007 [14]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

The refractive index is 1.66

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

The speed of light in a transparent medium is 0.6 times that of its speed in vacuum .

Refractive index of medium = speed of light in vacuum / speed of light in medium  

So

RI = 1/0.6 = 5/3 or 1.66

Assume that the driver begins to brake the car when the distance to the wall is d=107m, and take the car's mass as m-1400kg, its
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

Explanation:

a ) Let let the frictional force needed be F

Work done by frictional force = kinetic energy of car

F x 107 = 1/2 x 1400 x 35²

F = 8014 N

b )

maximum possible static friction

= μ mg

where μ is coefficient of static friction

= .5 x 1400 x 9.8

= 6860 N

c )

work done by friction for μ = .4

= .4 x 1400 x 9.8 x 107

= 587216 J

Initial Kinetic energy

= .5 x 1400 x 35 x 35

= 857500 J

Kinetic energy at the at of collision

= 857500 - 587216

= 270284 J

So , if v be the velocity at the time of collision

1/2 mv² = 270284

v = 19.65 m /s

d ) centripetal force required

= mv₀² / d which will be provided by frictional force

= (1400 x 35 x 35) / 107

= 16028 N

Maximum frictional force possible

= μmg

= .5 x 1400 x 9.8

= 6860 N

So this is not possible.

What is a constellation as astronomers define it today? What does it mean when an astronomer says, “I saw a comet in Orion last
MissTica

Explanation:

Constellation: The complete sky has been divided in 88 different areas, in a way we have divided Earth in countries, not necessarily having same shapes and size. These 88 areas are known as constellations. These contains a lot of stars. When we join the brightest stars together we can imagine a shape out of them which is called as Asterism. Most of the people are unaware of this difference. Some of the famous constellations are Orion, Taurus, Gemini, Hydra, Ursa Major etc.

When an astronomer says that there is a comet is in the Orion, he means that a comet is in the boundaries of Orion constellation.
