Answer:

The range of the bullet is 0.435 kilometers.

Explanation:

According to the problem, maximum height is equal to the range of the bullet. That is:

\Delta x = \Delta y

Where:

\Delta x - Range of the bullet, measured in meters.

\Delta y - Maximum height of the bullet, measured in meters.

By the Principle of Energy Conservation, gravitational potential energy reaches its maximum at the expense of the initial kinetic energy. That is to say:

K_{1} = U_{2}

Where:

K_{1} - Kinetic energy at point 1, measured in joules.

U_{1} - Gravitational potential energy at point 2, measured in joules, and:

U_{2} = m\cdot g \cdot \Delta y

Where:

m - Mass of the bullet, measured in kilograms.

g - Gravitational constant, measured in meters per square second.

The maximum height is now cleared:

K_{1} = m\cdot g \cdot \Delta y

\Delta y = \frac{K_{1}}{m\cdot g}

If K_{1} = 1066\,J, m = 0.25\,kg and g = 9.81\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}, the maximum height is now computed:

\Delta y = \frac{1066\,J}{(0.25\,kg)\cdot \left(9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)}

\Delta y = 434.791\,m

\Delta y = 0.435\,km

Lastly, the range of the bullet is 0.435 kilometers.

When you exert 75 N on a jack to lift a 6000 N car, what is the jack’s actual mechanical advantage? Show your work.
professor190 [17]

Answer:

80

Explanation:

<em>the </em><em>mechanical</em><em> </em><em>advantage</em><em> </em><em>is </em><em>the </em><em>ratio </em><em>of </em><em>the </em><em>load </em><em>to </em><em>the </em><em>effort</em><em> </em><em>so </em><em>it </em><em>doesn't</em><em> </em><em>have </em><em>units.</em><em>t</em><em>o</em><em> </em><em>calculate</em><em> </em><em>it </em><em>you </em><em>use </em><em>the </em><em>formula</em>

<em>mechanical</em><em> advantage</em><em>=</em><em>load/</em><em>effort</em>

<em>in </em><em>this</em><em> case</em><em> </em><em>the </em><em>load </em><em>is </em><em>6</em><em>0</em><em>0</em><em>0</em><em>N</em><em> </em><em>and </em><em>the </em><em>effort</em><em> </em><em>is </em><em>7</em><em>5</em><em>N</em>

<em>Ma=</em><em>6</em><em>0</em><em>0</em><em>0</em><em>/</em><em>7</em><em>5</em>

<em>=</em><em>8</em><em>0</em>

<em>I </em><em>hope</em><em> this</em><em> helps</em>

A non-conducting sphere of radius R = 3.0 cm carries a charge Q = 2.0 mC distributed uniformly throughout its volume. At what di
BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

r =3 *\sqrt{2} = 4.24 cm

Explanation:

given data

Radius of sphere 3.0 cm

charge Q = 2.0 m C

We know that maximum electric field is given as

E_{MAX}= \frac{KQ}{r^{2}}

electric field inside the sphere can be determine by using below relation

\frac{KQ}{r^{2}}= \frac{1}{2}*\frac{KQ}{R^{2}}

r = \sqrt{2}R

r =3 *\sqrt{2} = 4.24 cm

Two children who are bored while waiting for their flight at the airport decide to race from one end of the 20-m-long moving sid
QveST [7]

Answer: Phillipe wins the race

Explanation:

Given

Length of track=20 m

Velocity of Phillippe=2 m/s w.r.t sidewalk

Velocity of sidewalk=1.5 m/s

Rena velocity=2 m/s

Therefore absolute velocity of P is 2+1.5=3.5 m/s

Time taken by phillippe \frac{20}{3.5}+\frac{20}{3.5-1.5}

t_P=5.714+10=15.714 s

Time taken by rena

t_r=\frac{20}{2}+\frac{20}{2}=20 s

as the time taken  by phillippe is less than rena therefore Phillippe wins the race.

A 0.405 kg mass is attached to a spring with a force constant of 26.3 N/m and released from rest a distance of 3.31 cm from the
miv72 [106K]

Answer:

0.231 m/s

Explanation:

m = mass attached to the spring = 0.405 kg

k = spring constant of spring = 26.3 N/m

x₀ = initial position = 3.31 cm = 0.0331 m

x = final position = (0.5) x₀ = (0.5) (0.0331) = 0.01655 m

v₀ = initial speed = 0 m/s

v = final speed = ?

Using conservation of energy

Initial kinetic energy + initial spring energy = Final kinetic energy + final spring energy

(0.5) m v₀² + (0.5) k x₀² = (0.5) m v² + (0.5) k x²

m v₀² + k x₀² = m v² + k x²

(0.405) (0)² + (26.3) (0.0331)² = (0.405) v² + (26.3) (0.01655)²

v = 0.231 m/s
