In principle, when you fire a rifle, the recoil should push you backward. How big a push will it give? Let's find out by doing a

calculation in a very artificial situation. Suppose a man standing on frictionless ice fires a rifle horizontally. The mass of the man together with the rifle is 70 kg, and the mass of the bullet is 10 g.

Answer:

v= \frac{10\times10^{-3} V}{70} m/s

Explanation:

Assumption: bullet leaves the muzzle at a speed of V m/s

and velocity of push received by the man be v m/s

According to newton's third law to every action there is always an equal and opposite reaction.

therefore,

mass of man× velocity = mass of bullet×its velocity

⇒70×v= 10×10^-3 ×V

solving the above eqaution we get

therefore v= \frac{10\times10^{-3} V}{70} m/s

A weightlifter exerts an upward force on a 1000-N barbell and holds it at a height of 1 meter for 2 seconds. Approximately how m
Alex73 [517]

Amount of work done is zero and so power = 0 watts.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Power is the rate at which work is done, or W divided by delta t. Since the barbell is not moving, the weightlifter is not doing work on the barbell.Therefore, if the work done is zero, then the power is also zero.It may seem unusual that the data given in question is versatile i.e. A weightlifter exerts an upward force on a 1000-N barbell and holds it at a height of 1 meter for 2 seconds. But, still the answer is zero watts , this was a tricky question although conceptual basis of question was good! Power is dependent on amount of work done which is further related to displacement and here the net displacement is zero ! Hence, amount of work done is zero and so power = 0 watts.

the distance between two points P and Q is 120 m a object goes from point P to q and then returned to P in 1 minute 40 second wh
Naily [24]

Answer:

using a formula

average velocity=total displacement/total time

average velocity=120/1minute40sec

1minute=60sec

60sec+40sec=120sec

average velocity=120m/120sec

average velocity=1m/sec
