Answer:

<h2>a) Time elapsed before the bullet hits the ground is 0.553 seconds.</h2><h2>b) The bullet travels horizontally 110.6 m</h2>

Explanation:

a) Consider the vertical motion of bullet

We have equation of motion s = ut + 0.5 at²

Initial velocity, u = 0 m/s

Acceleration, a = 9.81 m/s²

Displacement, s = 1.5 m

Substituting

s = ut + 0.5 at²

1.5 = 0 x t + 0.5 x 9.81 xt²

t = 0.553 s

Time elapsed before the bullet hits the ground is 0.553 seconds.

b) Consider the horizontal motion of bullet

We have equation of motion s = ut + 0.5 at²

Initial velocity, u = 200 m/s

Acceleration, a = 0 m/s²

Time, t = 0.553 s

Substituting

s = ut + 0.5 at²

s = 200 x 0.553 + 0.5 x 0 x 0.553²

s = 110.6 m

The bullet travels horizontally 110.6 m

1. Why should you use scientific notation when writing big numbers?

Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

It helps the answer look clean. It also makes the work easier to work with.

Explanation:

Instead of writing a lot of zeros, all you have to do is add exponents to the number to show how much the decimal moved.

A circular loop of wire with a radius of 15.0 cm and oriented in the horizontal xy-plane is located in a region of uniform magne

kati45 [8]

Answer:

The average emf that will be induced in the wire loop during the extraction process is 37.9 V

Explanation:

The average emf induced can be calculated from the formula

$Emf = -N\frac{\Delta \phi}{\Delta t}$

Where $N$ is the number of turns

$\Delta \phi$ is the change in magnetic flux

$\Delta t$ is the time interval

The change in magnetic flux is given by

$\Delta \phi = \phi _{f} - \phi _{i}$

Where $\phi _{f}$ is the final magnetic flux

and $\phi _{i}$ is the initial magnetic flux

Magnetic flux is given by the formula

$\phi = BAcos(\theta)$

Where $B$ is the magnetic field

$A$ is the area

and $\theta$ is the angle between the magnetic field and the area.

Initially, the magnetic field and the area are pointed in the same direction, that is, $\theta = 0^{o}$

From the question,

B = 1.5 T

and radius = 15.0 cm = 0.15 m

Since it is a circular loop of wire, the area is given by

$A = \pi r^{2}$

∴ $A = \pi (0.15)^{2}$

$A = 0.0225\pi$

∴ $\phi_{i} = (1.5)(0.0225\pi)cos(0^{o} )$

$\phi_{i} = (1.5)(0.0225\pi)$

( NOTE: $cos (0^{o}) = 1$ )

$\phi_{i} = 0.03375\pi$ Wb

For $\phi_{f}$

The field pointed upwards, that is $\theta = 90^{o}$ . Since $cos (90^{o}) = 0$

Then

$\phi_{f} = 0$

Hence,

$\Delta \phi = 0- 0.03375\pi$

$\Delta \phi = - 0.03375\pi$

From the question

$\Delta t = 2.8 ms = 2.8 \times 10^{-3} s$

Here, $N$ = 1

Hence,

$Emf = -N\frac{\Delta \phi}{\Delta t}$ becomes

$Emf = -(1)\frac{-0.03375\pi}{2.8 \times 10^{-3} }$

$Emf = 37.9 V$

Hence, the average emf that will be induced in the wire loop during the extraction process is 37.9 V.

Fed [463]

Answer: y = 2.4×10^-6m or y= 2.4μm

Explanation: The formulae for the distance between the central bright fringe to any other fringe in pattern is given as

y = R×mλ/d

Where y = distance between nth fringe and Central bright spot fringe.

m = position of fringe = 4

λ = wavelength of light= 600nm = 600×10^-9 m

d = distance between slits = 1.50×10^-5m

R = distance between slit and screen = 2m

y = 2 × 4 × 600×10^-9/2

y = 4800×10^-9/2

y = 2400 × 10^-9

y = 2.4×10^-6m or y= 2.4μm
