Bullet with mass "m1" and speed "v1", hits a bag with mass "m2" and speed "v2=0", which means that the bag is standing still. Fi

nd the formula that explains how much speed has the bag after the bullet hits it. Sorry for my bad english, it's not my ethnic language.

IF the bag is suspended freely in mid-air and free to move
without friction, then the linear momentum is the same both
before and after the hit.

Momentum of the bullet before the hit = ( m₁ v₁ ).

Momentum of the (bullet + bag) after the hit = (m₁ + m₂) (v₂) .

Momentum is conserved, so we can say that ...

             ( m₁ v₁ ) = (m₁ + m₂) (v₂)

                 v₂ =  ( m₁ v₁ ) / (m₁ + m₂)

Usually the mass of the bag is much much more than the mass
of the bullet, so the mass of the bullet can be ignored after the
hit, and the formula is very closely ...

                 v₂ =  v₁ ( m₁ / m₂ ) .

Stop apologizing for your English.  It's better than many native
Americans writing on this site.  Be proud.

A cylinder with a moving piston expands from an initial volume of 0.250 L against an external pressure of 2.00 atm. The expansio
Step2247 [10]

The final volume of the gas is 144.25 L

Explanation:

For an ideal gas kept at constant pressure, the work done by the gas on the surroundings is given by

W=p\Delta V = p(V_f - V_i)

where

p is the pressure of the gas

V_i is the initial volume

V_f is the final volume

For the gas in the cylinder in this problem,

p = 2.00 atm

V_i = 0.250 L

And we also know the work done,

W = 288 J

So we can solve the equation for V_f, the final volume:

V_f = V_i + \frac{W}{p}=0.250 + \frac{288}{2.00}=144.25 L

In an intergalactic competition, spaceship pilots compete to see who can cover the distance between two asteroids in the short-
pogonyaev

Answer:

a)  truc is C,  b) correct result is the B

Explanation:

As the speed of the competition is very high, for the judges the speed is

           v = d / t

           v = 3 109 m / 20

           v = 1.5 108 m / s

This is half the speed of light. For these high speeds we must use the relations of special relativity.

For the time          t = to γ

For distance         L = Lo / γ

                            γ = √ (1-v2 / c2)

Own time and distance (to and Lo) corresponds to the observer who is not moving the judges in this case

Let's look for the range value

                     γ = 1 / √ (1 - (1.5 / 3) 2) = 1 / 0.866 = 1.15

The time              t = 20 1.15 = 23 s

The distance       L = 3 10 9 /1.15 = 2.60 109 m

From these results we see that time increases and the distance is shorter.

Let's review the claims

A) False. It's the opposite

B) False

C) True. It is according to the result found

D) False.

In the nuclear fusion process, we will also use the special relativity that has a relationship between energy and mass

         ΔE = c² Δm

As in the process energy is released, for the law of conservation of the mass of energy to be fulfilled, the total mass of the products, He atom, must be reduced.

Therefore the correct result is the B

A truck driving east on a highway goes from the 42 mi marker to the 48 mi
Leona [35]

Average velocity is 1..2 mi/min east

Explanation:

  • Velocity = Displacement/Time

Here, displacement = 48 mi - 42 mi = 6 miles

Time = 5 minutes

⇒ Average Velocity = 6/5 = 1.2 mi/min east
