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}

radar devices are used by law enforcement to be sure that individuals are driving safely. they tell the officer how fast the veh
coldgirl [10]
The radar device determines the vehicle's instantaneous speed.

I would argue that the purpose of the device is not to determine
whether individuals are driving safely.  They only determine whether
individuals are driving within legal speed limits.  There's much more
to 'safe' driving than that, but the radar gun can't detect it.

Vaselesa [24]
The force of gravity will cause your vehicle to speed up when going downhill, and slow down when going uphill. The energy of motion increases proportionally with the increase in weight, and the energy increases proportionally with the square of the increase in speed. Increase with an increase of your kinetic energy. Gravity decreases your kinetic energy when driving uphill and increases it when driving downhill. Therefore, the force of gravity will make it easier to stop your car if you're going uphill but more difficult to stop your car if you're going downhill.

A 320-kg satellite experiences a gravitational force of 800 N. What is the radius of the satellite’s orbit? What is its altitude
Westkost [7]

Answer:

Radius of orbit = 3.992 × 10^{7} m

Altitude of Satellite =33541.9×  m

Explanation:

Formula for gravitational force for a satellite of mass m  moving in an orbit of radius r around a planet of mass M is given by;

F= G\frac{m M}{r^{2} }

Where G = Gravitational constant = 6.67408 × 10-11 \frac{m^{3} }{Kg sec^{2} }

We are given

F= 800 N

m = 320 Kg

M = 5.972 × 10^{24} Kg

G = 6.67408 × 10-11 \frac{m^{3} }{Kg sec^{2} }

We have to find radius r =?

putting values in formula;

==> 800 =6.67408 ×10^{-11}× 320 × 5.972 × 10^{24} / r^{2}

==> 800= 39.8576 × 10^{13} × 320 / r^{2}

==> 800 = 12754.43 × 10^{13} / r^{2}

==> r^{2} = 12754.43 × 10^{13} /800

==> r^{2}=15.94 × 10^{13}

==> r =  3.992 × 10^{7} m

==> r = 39920×10^{3} m

This is the distance of satellite from center of earth. To find altitude we need distance from surface of earth. So we will subtract radius of earth from this number to find altitude.

Radius of earth =6378.1 km = 6378.1 × 10^{3} m

Altitude = 39920×10^{3} - 6378.1 ×
