A 6.99-g bullet is moving horizontally with a velocity of +341 m/s, where the sign + indicates that it is moving to the right (s

ee part a of the drawing). The bullet is approaching two blocks resting on a horizontal frictionless surface. Air resistance is negligible. The bullet passes completely through the first block (an inelastic collision) and embeds itself in the second one, as indicated in part b. Note that both blocks are moving after the collision with the bullet. The mass of the first block is 1202 g, and its velocity is +0.554 m/s after the bullet passes through it. The mass of the second block is 1523 g. (a) What is the velocity of the second block after the bullet imbeds itself? (b) Find the ratio of the total kinetic energy after the collision to that before the collision.

Answer:

a). 1.218 m/s

b). R=2.8^{-3}

Explanation:

m_{bullet}=6.99g*\frac{1kg}{1000g}=6.99x10^{-3}kg

v_{bullet}=341\frac{m}{s}

Momentum of the motion the first part of the motion have a momentum that is:

P_{1}=m_{bullet}*v_{bullet}

P_{1}=6.99x10^{-3}kg*341\frac{m}{s} \\P_{1}=2.3529

The final momentum is the motion before the action so:

a).

P_{2}=m_{b1}*v_{fbullet}+(m_{b2}+m_{bullet})*v_{f}}

P_{2}=1.202 kg*0.554\frac{m}{s}+(1.523kg+6.99x10^{-3}kg)*v_{f}

P_{1}=P_{2}

2.529=0.665+(1.5299)*v_{f}\\v_{f}=\frac{1.864}{1.5299}\\v_{f}=1.218 \frac{m}{s}

b).

kinetic energy

K=\frac{1}{2}*m*(v)^{2}

Kinetic energy after

Ka=\frac{1}{2}*1.202*(0.554)^{2}+\frac{1}{2}*1.523*(1.218)^{2}\\Ka=1.142 J

Kinetic energy before

Kb=\frac{1}{2}*mb*(vf)^{2}\\Kb=\frac{1}{2}*6.99x10^{-3}kg*(341)^{2}\\Kb=406.4J

Ratio =\frac{Ka}{Kb}

R=\frac{1.14}{406.4}\\R=2.8x10^{-3}

Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

√35 square units

Explanation:

Area of square = 35square units

Formula of area of square is a =s*s where a is area and s is side

So,

s*s = 35

s^2= 35

s = √35

A radio wave transmits 38.5 W/m2 of power per unit area. A flat surface of area A is perpendicular to the direction of propagati
Margaret [11]

Answer:

P=2.57\times 10^{-7}\ N/m^2

Explanation:

Given that,

A radio wave transmits 38.5 W/m² of power per unit area.

A flat surface of area A is perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the wave.

We need to find the radiation pressure on it. It is given by the formula as follows :

P=\dfrac{2I}{c}

Where

c is speed of light

Putting all the values, we get :

P=\dfrac{2\times 38.5}{3\times 10^8}\\\\=2.57\times 10^{-7}\ N/m^2

So, the radiation pressure is 2.57\times 10^{-7}\ N/m^2.

In an elastic head-on collision, a 0.60 kg cart moving at 5.0 m/s [W] collides with a 0.80 kg cart moving at 2.0 m/s [E]. The co
labwork [276]

Answer:

The answer is given below

Explanation:

u is the initial velocity, v is the final velocity. Given that:

m_1=0.6kg,u_1=-5m/s(moving \ west),m_2=0.8kg,u_2=2m/s,k=1200N/m

a)

The final velocity of cart 1 after collision is given as:

v_1=(\frac{m_1-m_2}{m_1+m_2})u_1+\frac{2m_2}{m_1+m_2}u_2\\  Substituting:\\v_1=\frac{0.6-0.8}{0.6+0.8} (-5)+\frac{2*0.8}{0.6+0.8}(2)= 5/7+16/7=3\ m/s

The final velocity of cart 2 after collision is given as:

v_2=(\frac{m_2-m_1}{m_1+m_2})u_2+\frac{2m_1}{m_1+m_2}u_1\\  Substituting:\\v_1=\frac{0.8-0.6}{0.6+0.8} (2)+\frac{2*0.6}{0.6+0.8}(-5)= 2/7-30/7=-4\ m/s

b) Using the law of conservation of energy:

\frac{1}{2}m_1u_1+ \frac{1}{2}m_2u_2=\frac{1}{2}m_1v_1+\frac{1}{2}m_2v_2+\frac{1}{2}kx^2\\x=\sqrt{\frac{m_1u_1+m_2u_2-m_1v_1-m_2v_2}{k}}\\ Substituting\ gives:\\x=\sqrt{\frac{0.6*(-5)^2+0.8*2^2-(0.6*3^2)-(0.8*(-4)^2)}{1200}}=\sqrt{0}=0\ cm
