If you fired a rifle straight upwards at 1000 m/s, how far up will the bullet get?

Physics

Answer:

h = 51020.40 meters

Explanation:

Speed of the rifle, v = 1000 m/s

Let h is the height gained by the bullet. It can be calculated using the conservation of energy as :

\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2=mgh

h=\dfrac{v^2}{2g}

h=\dfrac{(1000\ m/s)^2}{2\times 9.8\ m/s^2}                    

h = 51020.40 meters

So, the bullet will get up to a height of 51020.40 meters. Hence, this is the required solution.

Complete Question

The complete question is shown on the first uploaded image

Answer:

Explanation:

From the question we are told

   The amplitude of the lateral  force is  F = 25 \  N

   The frequency is   f = 1 \  Hz

   The mass of the bridge per unit length is  \mu  =  2000 \  kg /m

    The length of the central span is  d =  144 m

     The oscillation amplitude of the section  considered at the time considered is  A = 75 \ mm =  0.075 \  m

      The time taken for the undriven oscillation to decay to \frac{1}{e}  of its original value is  t = 6T

Generally the mass of the section considered is mathematically represented as

            m =  \mu  *  d

=>        m =  2000 * 144

=>        m =  288000 \ kg

Generally the oscillation amplitude of the section after a  time period  t is mathematically represented as

                 A(t) = A_o e^{-\frac{bt}{2m} }

Here b is the damping constant and the A_o is the amplitude of the section when it was undriven

So from the question  

               \frac{A_o}{e}  = A_o e^{-\frac{b6T}{2m} }

=>            \frac{1}{e}  =e^{-\frac{b6T}{2m} }

=>          e^{-1} =e^{-\frac{b6T}{2m} }

=>           -\frac{3T b}{m}  =  -1

=>         b  = \frac{m}{3T}

Generally the amplitude of the section considered is mathematically represented as

           A =  \frac{n * F }{ b *  2 \pi }

=>       A =  \frac{n * F }{ \frac{m}{3T}  *  2 \pi }

=>       n =  A  *  \frac{m}{3}  *  \frac{2\pi}{25}

=>       n = 0.075 *  \frac{288000}{3}  *  \frac{2* 3.142 }{25}

=>       n = 1810 \ people

A parallel circuit contains four identical lamps. The current through the energy source is 4 A. The total resistance of the circ
TEA [102]

Answer:

b. 40V , 40V

Explanation:

Connections are as per the figure.

As total current through source is 4A , current through each lamp is 1A.

As total resistance of the circuit is 10Ω ,resistance of each bulb is 40Ω because in case of a parallel circuit in which identical objects are connected , R_{eff} = \frac{R}{n} where R is the resistance of each bulb and n is the number of bulbs.

As per Ohm's law , voltage of the source =IR = 4×10 =40V.

We can see from the figure that if the voltage across the source is 40V , the voltage across each bulb is also 40V.

Using a horizontal force of 200N,we intend to move a wooden cabinet across a floor at constant velocity.What is the friction for
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

-200 N

Explanation:

The cabinet moves at constant velocity, so that means there's no acceleration.

Applying Newton's second law to the cabinet:

∑F = ma

F + 200 = 0

F = -200

The friction force is 200 N in the opposite direction.

What forms when an artesian well begins to push out enough water that gravity causes it to flow to a lower region?
kondaur [170]

An artesian well is a well drilled into an artesian aquifer. An artesian aquifer is a small aquifer which contains groundwater under positive pressure. Since the water is under positive pressure, this forces the water level in the well to rise above the water surface up to a point where hydrostatic equilibrium is reached. This results in the formations of “Springs”.

Answer: Spring

A 10 kg box slides horizontally without friction at a speed of 1 m/s. At one point, a constant force is applied to the box in th
GrogVix [38]

Answer:

Fapp = 3 N

Explanation:

  • Applying the work-energy theorem, we know that the net work done on one object by an applied force, is equal to the change in the kinetic energy of the object.
  • This work is just the product of the applied force times the displacement, as follows:

       W_{net} = F_{app} * d (1)

  • This must be equal to the change in kinetic energy:

       \Delta K = K_{f}  - K_{i} = \frac{1}2}* m* (v_{f} ^{2} -v_{i} ^{2} ) (2)

  • Equating (1) and (2),  and replacing by the givens, we can solve for Fapp, as follows:

       F_{app} =(\frac{1}2}* m* (v_{f} ^{2} -v_{i} ^{2} ) ) / d = (5 kg* (2m/s)^{2} -1m/s^{2})/ 5 m =  3 N

  • The  magnitude of the applied force is 3 N.
