Answer:

<h3>Electricity is the flow of charges through a conductor. </h3>

It happens when a force moves the first electron on a surface where they are free to move.

a bullet moving with a velocity of 100m/s pierce a block of wood and moves out with a velocityof 10 m/s.if the thickness of the

erma4kov [3.2K]

The emerging velocity of the bullet is 71 m/s.

The bullet of mass m moving with a velocity u has kinetic energy. When it pierces the block of wood, the block exerts a force of friction on the bullet. As the bullet passes through the block, work is done against the resistive forces exerted on the bullet by the block. This results in the reduction of the bullet's kinetic energy. The bullet has a speed v when it emerges from the block.

If the block exerts a resistive force F on the bullet and the thickness of the block is x then, the work done by the resistive force is given by,

$W=Fx$

This is equal to the change in the bullet's kinetic energy.

$W=Fx=\frac{1}{2} m(u^2-v^2)......(1)$

If the thickness of the block is reduced by one-half, the bullet emerges out with a velocity v₁.

Assuming the same resistive forces to act on the bullet,

$F(\frac{x}{2} )=\frac{1}{2} m(u^2-v_1^2)......(2)$

Divide equation (2) by equation (1) and simplify for v₁.

$\frac{\frac{Fx}{2} }{Fx} =\frac{(u^2-v_1^2)}{(u^2-v^2)} \\\frac{100^2-v_1^2}{100^2-10^2} =\frac{1}{2} \\v_1^2=5050\\v_1=71.06 m/s$

Thus the speed of the bullet is 71 m/s

vesna_86 [32]

It means that you consider the elements as a list organized by atomic number, the property is seen to repeat over and over as you move through that list.

Which of the following is not a part of the modern theory of evolution?

telo118 [61]

Answer:

Explanation:

D) Evolution proceeds in the direction desired by members of a generation is not the modern theory of evolution.

Evolution can not proceed in the direction as desire by the members of the generation as No matter how hard you and your friends wish that your children will be born with the ability to fly unassisted, the kids will have to use airlines like the rest of us. All the rest of these contribute to evolution
