Answer:

The recoil speed of the man and rifle is v_{man}=0.016 ms^{-1}.

Explanation:

The expression for the force in terms of mg is as follows;

F=mg

Here, m is the mass and acceleration due to gravity.

Rearrange the expression for mass.

m=\frac{F}{g}

Calculate the combined mass of the man and rifle.

m_{man,rifle}=\frac{650+25}{g}

Put g=9.8 ms^{-2}.

m_{man,rifle}=\frac{650+25}{9.8}

m_{man,rifle}=68.88 kg

The expression for the conservation of momentum is as follows as;

m_{man}u_{man}+m_{bullet}u_{bullet}=m_{man}v_{man}+m_{rifle}v_{man,rifle}

Here, m_{man,rifle} is the mass of the man and rifle,  m_{rifle} is the mass of the rifle,u_{man},u{bullet}  are the initial velocities of the man and bullet and v_{man},v{man,rifle} are the final velocities of the man and rifle and rifle.

It is given in the problem that a rifle with a weight of 25 N fires a 4.5-g bullet with a speed of 240 m/s.

Convert mass of rifle from gram to kilogram.

m_{bullet}=4.5 g

m_{bullet}=.0045 kg

Put m_{bullet}=.0045 kg,m_{man,rifle}=68.88 kg , u_{man,rifle}=0, v_{bullet}= 240 ms^{-1} and u_{bullet}=0.

m_{man}(0)+m_{bullet}(0)=(68.88)v_{man,rifle}+(.0045)(240)

0=(68.88)v_{man,rifle}+(.0045)(240)

0=(68.88)v_{man,rifle}+1.08

(68.88)v_{man,rifle}=\frac{-1.08}{68.88}

v_{man,rifle}=-0.016 ms^{-1}  

Therefore, the recoil speed of the man and rifle is v_{man}=0.016 ms^{-1}.

Which of the following is the same in all frames of reference?
Ksju [112]
The correct option is B.
The length of an object, the mass of an object and the rate of time passage for an object can change depending on the situation which the object is subject to. For instance in space, the mass and the velocity of an object usually change. But, the value of the speed of light in the space is the same for all observers regardless of the motion of an object, that is, the speed of light is a constant.<span />

Why shouldn't we consider the needs of humans first
Orlov [11]

Answer:

We should not consider the needs of humans first because Conservation of nature is more important.

Explanation:

Human beings are important but the priority must be given to nature. Human beings have uncountable needs and if we focus on satisfying all such needs then it will affect our nature. Because finally our needs are fulfilled by using the resources from nature.

So rather than considering the needs of humans first, we must try to preserve our nature as much as possible. It is not done then it will lead to disaster.

Two airplanes leave an airport at the same time. The velocity of the first airplane is 730 m/h at a heading of 44.3 ◦ . The velo
Goshia [24]

Answer:

So airplane will be 1324.9453 m apart after 2.9 hour

Explanation:

So if we draw the vectors of a 2d graph we see that the difference in angles is  = 83 - 44.3 = 83-44.3=38.7^{\circ}

Distance traveled by first plane = 730×2.9 = 2117 m

And distance traveled by second plane = 590×2.9 = 1711 m

We represent these distances as two sides of the triangle, and the distance between the planes as the side opposing the angle 38.7.

Using the law of cosine, d^2 representing the distance between the planes, we see that:

d^2=2117^2 + 1711^2 -2\times (2117)\times (1711)cos(38.7)=1755480.2482

d = 1324.9453 m

The a992 steel rod bc has a diameter of 50 mm and is used as a strut to support the beam. determine the maximum intensity w of t
EastWind [94]

Answer:

w = 11.211 KN/m

Explanation:

Given:

diameter, d = 50 mm

F.S = 2

L = 3

Due to symmetry, we have:

Ay = By = \frac{w * 6}{2} = 3w

P_c_r = 3w * F.S = 3w * 2.0 = 6w

I = \frac{\pi}{64} (0.05)^4 = 3.067*10^-^7

To find the maximum intensity, w, let's take the Pcr formula, we have:

P_c_r = \frac{\pi^2 E I}{(KL)^2}

Let's take k = 1

E = 200*10^9

Substituting figures, we have:

6w = \frac{\pi^2 * 200*10^9 * 3.067*10^-^7}{(1 * 3)^2}

Solving for w, we have:

w = \frac{67266.84}{6}

w = 11211.14 N/m = 11.211 KN/m

Since Area, A= pi * (0.05)²

\sigma _c_r = \frac{w}{A}

\sigma _c_r = \frac{11.211}{\pi (0.05)^2} = 1.4 MPA < \sigma y. This means it is safe

The maximum intensity w = 11.211KN/m
