A ball of mass 0.50 kg is fired with velocity 160 m/s into the barrel of a spring gun of mass 1.8 kg initially at rest on a fric

tionless surface. The ball sticks in the barrel at the point of maximum compression of the spring. No energy is lost to friction. What fraction of the ball's initial kinetic energy is stored in the spring

Answer:

All fraction of kinectic energy is lost to barrel of a spring gun of mass 1.8 kg

Explanation:

A ball of mass 0.50 kg is fired with velocity 160 m/s ...

The kinetic energy is given by 1/2mv²

Kinectic energy of the ball = 1/2 *0.5*160²

Kinectic energy = 1/4 *25600

Kinectic energy = 6400 joules.

If no energy is lost to fiction, and the ball sticks to a barrel of a spring gun of mass 1.8 kg with initial velocity zero, all kinetic energy is lost to the barrel of a spring gun of mass 1.8 kg.

Which statement is true about gravitational forces?
Readme [11.4K]
Hey there!

Your correct answer would be (<span>Every mass exerts a gravitational force on every other mass.) It really doesn't matter the size in mass what so ever, gravity is stronger than mass, mass in nothing compared to mass. Therefor, gravity exert's mass on any object with any size of mass.

Your correct answer would be . . . 

</span>\boxed{\boxed{Every \ mass \ exerts \ a \ gravitational \ force \ on \ every \ other \ mass}}
<span>
Hope this helps.

How much work would it take to push two protons very slowly from a separation of 2.00×10−10m (a typical atomic distance) to 3.00
laiz [17]

Answer:

Work= -7.68×10⁻¹⁴J

Explanation:

Given data

q₁=q₂=1.6×10⁻¹⁹C

r₁=2.00×10⁻¹⁰m

r₂=3.00×10⁻¹⁵m

To find

Work

Solution

The work done on the charge is equal to difference in potential energy

W=ΔU

Work=U_{1}-U_{2}\\ Work=-kq_{1}q_{2}[\frac{1}{r_{2}}-\frac{1}{r_{1}} ]\\Work=(-9*10^{9})*(1.6*10^{-19} )^{2}[\frac{1}{3.0*10^{-15} }-\frac{1}{2*10^{-10} } ]\\  Work=-7.68*10^{-14}J

Venus is the only inner planet that has been explored by rovers
Vesnalui [34]
I don't know what this question is asking but this statement is false because venus is a planet made of hot gas that cannot be landed on. So venus has not been explored by rovers. (However Mars has been explored by rovers)
