One can calculate gravitational potential energy, potential energy due to gravity by the formula of :
Ep = mgh
Ep = potential energy
m = mass of object
g = acceleration due to gravity
h = height of object from ground generally.

A bullet of mass 0.01 kg is fired in to a sand bas of mass 0.49 kg from a tree. The Sand bag with the bullet embedded in to it s
makvit [3.9K]

Since the bag was at rest, its initial momentum is zero. The velocity of the ball before collision is 500 ms-1.

<h3>Linear momentum</h3>

The term momentum in physics refers the product of mass and velocity. If we know mass of the object and its velocity, then we calculate the momentum.

Momentum before collision for the bullet = 0.01 kg × v

Momentum before collision for the bag = 0

Momentum after collision for the bag and bullet = (0.01 kg  +  0.49 kg) 10 = 5 Kgms-1

The velocity of the bullet before collision =  0.01 kg × v + 0 =  5 Kgms-1

v = 5 Kgms-1/0.01 kg

v = 500 ms-1

Water has a mass per mole of 18.0 g/mol, and each water molecule (H20) has 10 electrons. (a) How many electrons are there in one
Allushta [10]

Answer:

total number of electron in 1 litter is 3.34 × 10^{26} electron

Explanation:

given data

mass per mole = 18 g/mol

no of electron = 10

to find out

how many electron in 1 liter of water

solution

we know molecules per gram mole is 6.02 ×10^{23} molecules

no of moles is 1

so

total number of electron in water is = no of electron ×molecules per gram mole × no of moles

total number of electron in water is = 10 × 6.02 ×10^{23} × 1

total number of electron in water is = 6.02×10^{24} electron

and

we know

mass = density × volume    ..........1

here we know density of water is 1000 kg/m

and volume = 1 litter = 1 × 10^{-3} m³

mass of 1 litter = 1000 × 1 × 10^{-3}

mass = 1000 g

so

total number of electron in 1 litter =  mass of 1 litter × \frac{molecules per gram mole}{mass per mole}

total number of electron in 1 litter =  1000 × \frac{6.02*10{24}}{18}

total number of electron in 1 litter is 3.34 × 10^{26} electron

A tomato of mass 0.18 kg is dropped from a tall bridge. If the tomato has a speed of 11 m/s just before it hits the ground, what
kondor19780726 [428]
The kinetic energy of the tomato is : 

K.E =  1/2 mv^2

K.E = 1/2 x 0.18 kg x 11 m/S^2

K.E = 0.99

You punt a ball straight up at 20 m/s. What is the balls hangtime
Natalija [7]

The hang time of the ball is 4.08 s

Explanation:

The ball is in free fall motion: this means that it is acted upon gravity only, so its acceleration is the acceleration of gravity,

a=g=-9.8 m/s^2

downward (the negative sign refers to the downward direction).

Since this is a uniformly accelerated motion, we can solve the problem by using the following suvat equation:

v=u+at

where

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

t is the time

First we calculate the time it takes for the ball to reach the maximum height, where the velocity is zero:

v = 0

Substituting:

u = +20 m/s

a=-9.8 m/s^2

we find t

t=\frac{v-u}{a}=\frac{0-20}{-9.8}=2.04 s

The motion of the ball is symmetrical, so the total time of flight is just twice the time needed to reach the maximum height, therefore:

T=2t=2(2.04)=4.08 s
