A bullet travels at 850 m/s. how long will it take a bullet to go 1 km?
Dmitrij [34]
The speed of bullet =
850 m/s

Distance given = 1 km = 1000m

S = D/t
t • S = D/t • t
St = D
St/S = D/S
t = D/S
t = 1000m/850m/s
t = 1.176 s

It will take the bullet 1.176 or about 1.18 seconds to go 1 km.

A block of mass 12.2 kg is sliding at an initial velocity of 3.9 m/s in the positive x-direction. The surface has a coefficient
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

Explanation:

a) Force of friction = μ R where μ is coefficient of kinetic friction and R is reaction force

R = mg where m is mass of the block

Force of friction F = μ x mg

= .173 x 12.2 x 9.8

= 20.68 N

b ) Only force of friction is acting on the body so

deceleration = force / mass = 20.68 / 12.2 = 1.7 m /s²

acceleration = - 1.7 m /s²

c )

v² = u² - 2 a s

v = 0 , u = 3.9 m /s

a = 1.7 m /s

0 = 3.9² - 2 x 1.7 x s

s = 4.47  m

An apple is placed 20.0 cm in front of a diverging lens of focal length 10.0 cm. Find the image distance and the magnification o
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

Image distance of apple=-6.7 cm

Magnification of apple=0.33

Explanation:

We are given that an apple is placed 20.cm in front of a diverging lens.

Object distance=u=-20 cm

Focal length=f=-10 cm

Because focal length of diverging lens is negative.

We have to find the image distance and magnification of the apple.

Lens formula

\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{v}-\frac{1}{u}

Substitute the values then we get

-\frac{1}{10}=\frac{1}{v}+\frac{1}{20}

\frac{1}{v}=-\frac{1}{10}-\frac{1}{20}

\frac{1}{v}=\frac{-2-1}{20}=-\frac{3}{20}

v=-\frac{20}{3}=-6.7 cm

Image distance of apple=-6.7 cm

Magnification=m=\frac{v}{u}=\frac{-\frac{20}{3}}{-20}

Magnification of apple=\frac{1}{3}=0.33

Hence, the magnification of apple=0.33

In a series RLC ac circuit, a second resistor is connected in series with the resistor previously in the circuit. As a result of
AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

* The first thing we observe is that the frequency response does not change

* The current that circulates in the circuit decreases due to the new resistance at the resonance point,

          Z = R + R₂

Explanation:

The impedance of a series circuit is

          Z₀² = R² + (X_L-X_C) ²

when we place another resistor in series the initial resistance impedance changes to

          Z² = (R + R₂) ² + (X_L - X_C) ²

           

let's analyze this expression

* The first thing we observe is that the frequency response does not change

* The current that circulates in the circuit decreases due to the new resistance at the resonance point,

          Z = R + R₂

At the top of a pole vault, an athlete actually can do work pushing on the pole before releasing it. Suppose the pushing force t
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

The work done on the athlete is approximately 2.09 J

Explanation:

From the definition of the work done by a variable force:

\displaystyle{\int_{x_i}^{x_j}F(x)dx}

and substituting with the function of our problem:

\displaystyle{\int_{0}^{0.19}(140x-190x^2)dx\approx2.09\mathrm{J}}
