A Bullet Off mass 100 gm is fired From A Gun Off mass 5 Kg. If the backward velocity of the gun's 5 m / s, what is forward veloc

Elena L [17]

Answer:

250 m/s

Explanation:

The mass of the bullet, m₁ = 100 g = 0.1 kg

The mass of the gun, m₂ = 5 kg

The backward velocity of the gun, v₂ = -5 m/s

Given that the momentum is conserved, we have;

The total initial momentum = The total final momentum

The gun and the bullet are at rest, therefore, we have;

The initial momentum = 0

The total final momentum = m₁·v₁ + m₂·v₂

Where;

v₁ = The forward velocity of the bullet

Therefore, we get;

m₁·v₁ + m₂·v₂ = 0

0.1 kg × v₁ + 5 kg × (-5 m/s) = 0

0.1 kg × v₁ = 5 kg × 5 m/s

v₁ = (5 kg × 5 m/s)/(0.1 kg) = 250 m/s

The forward velocity of the bullet, v₁ = 250 m/s

The Hawaiian hot spot sits below the Pacific plate. As the plate moves over the hot spot, a chain of volcanoes is formed. The Ea

Viktor [21]

Answer:

$3.2048179721\times 10^{-9}\ m/s$

Explanation:

Assuming that the pacific plate moved 178 km in 1.76 million years.

s = Distance = 178 km

t = Time taken = 1.76 million years

Speed is given by

$v=\dfrac{s}{t}\\\Rightarrow v=\dfrac{178000}{1.76\times 10^6\times 365.25\times 24\times 3600}\\\Rightarrow v=3.2048179721\times 10^{-9}\ m/s$

The speed of the plate is $3.2048179721\times 10^{-9}\ m/s$

Muons are elementary particles that are formed high in the atmosphere by the interactions of cosmic rays with atomic nuclei. Muo

uysha [10]

Answer:

<em>Muons reach the earth in great amount due to the relativistic time dilation from an earthly frame of reference.</em>

Explanation:

Muons travel at exceedingly high speed; close to the speed of light. At this speed, relativistic effect starts to take effect. The effect of this is that, when viewed from an earthly reference frame, their short half life of about two-millionth of a second is dilated. The dilated time, due to relativistic effects on time for travelling at speed close to the speed of light, gives the muons an extended relative travel time before their complete decay. So <em>in reality, the muon do not have enough half-life to survive the distance from their point of production high up in the atmosphere to sea level, but relativistic effect due to their near-light speed, dilates their half-life; enough for them to be found in sufficient amount at sea level. </em>
