In 11.8 s, 151 bullets strike and embed themselves in a wall. The bullets strike the wall perpendicularly. Each bullet has a mas

s of 5 x 10^-3 kg and a speed of 1110 m/s.
Required:
a. What is the average change in momentum per second for the bullets?
b. Determine the average force exerted on the wall.
c. Assuming the bullets are spread out over an area of 3.0×10^−4m^2 obtain the average pressure they exert on this region of the wall.

Answer:

a. ΔP/Δt =  42.6 N

b. F = 42.6 N

c. P = 142042.4 Pa = 1.42 KPa

Explanation:

a.

First, we find the change in momentum of the bullets. For one bullet:

ΔP = m(Vf - Vi)

where,

ΔP = Change in Momentum = ?

m = mass of bullet = 5 x 10⁻³ kg

Vf = Final Speed = 1110 m/s

Vi = Initial Speed = 0 m/s (Since bullets are initially at rest)

Therefore,

ΔP = (3 x 10⁻³ kg)(1110 m/s - 0 m/s)

ΔP = 3.33 N.s

For 151 bullets:

ΔP = (151)(3.33 N.s)

ΔP = 502.83 N.s

Now, dividing this by time interval, Δt = 11.8 s

ΔP/Δt = 502.83 N.s/ 11.8 s

<u>ΔP/Δt =  42.6 N</u>

<u></u>

b.

According to Newton's Second Law, the force is equal to rate of change of linear momentum:

Average Force = F = ΔP/Δt

<u>F = 42.6 N</u>

<u></u>

c.

The pressure is given by:

Average Pressure = P = Average Force/Area

P = 42.6 N/ 3 x 10⁻⁴ m²

<u>P = 142042.4 Pa = 1.42 KPa</u>

Ice skaters often end their performances with spin turns, where they spin very fast about their center of mass with their arms f
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

\large \boxed{\text{30 rev/s}}

Explanation:

This question is based on the Law of Conservation of Angular Momentum.

Angular momentum (L) equals the moment of inertia (I) times the angular speed (ω).

L = Iω

If momentum is conserved,

I₁ω₁ = I₂ω₂

Data:

 I₁ = 3.5    kg·m²s⁻¹

ω₁ = 6.0    rev·s⁻¹

 I₂ = 0.70 kg·m²s⁻¹

Calculation:

\begin{array}{rcl}I_{1}\omega_{1} &= &I_{2}\omega_{2}\\\text{3.5 kg$\cdot$m$^{2}$}\times \text{6.0 rev/s} &= &\text{0.70 kg$\cdot$m$^{2}$}\times\omega_{2}\\\text{21 rev/s} &= &0.70\omega_{2}\\\omega_{2} & = & \dfrac{\text{21 rev/s}}{0.70}\\\\&=&\textbf{30 rev/s}\\\end{array}\\\text{The skater's final rotational speed is $\large \boxed{\textbf{30 rev/s}}$}

Suppose the ski patrol lowers a rescue sled carrying an injured skier, with a combined mass of 97.5 kg, down a 60.0-degree slope
Kitty [74]

a. 1337.3 J work, in joules, is done by friction as the sled moved 28 m along the hill.

b.21,835 J work, in joules, is done by the rope on the sled this distance.

c. 23,170 J   the work, in joules done by the gravitational force on the sled d. The net work done on the sled, in joules is 43,670 J.

       

<h3>What is friction work?</h3>

The work done by friction is the force of friction times the distance traveled times the cosine of the angle between the friction force and displacement

a. How much work is done by friction as the sled moves 28m along the hill?

ans. We use the formula:

friction work = -µ.mg.dcosθ

  = -0.100 * 97.5 kg * 9.8 m/s² * 28 m * cos 60

= -1337.3 J

-1337.3 J work, in joules, is done by friction as the sled moved 28 m along the hill.

b. How much work is done by the rope on the sled in this distance?

We use the formula:

Rope work = -m.g.d(sinθ - µcosθ)

rope work = - 97.5 kg * 9.8 m/s² * 28 m (sin 60 – 0.100 * cos 60)

                     = 26,754 (0.816)

                     = 21,835 J

21,835 J work, in joules, is done by the rope on the sled this distance.

c.  What is the work done by the gravitational force on the sled?

By using  the formula:

Gravity work = mgdsinθ

                    = 97.5 kg * 9.8 m/s² * 28 m * sin 60

                    = 23,170 J

23,170 J   the work, in joules done by the gravitational force on the sled .

       

D. What is the total work done?

By adding all the values

work done =  -1337.3 + 21,835 + 23,170

                 = 43,670 J

The net work done on the sled, in joules is 43,670 J.
