A 22g bullet traveling 210 m/s penetrates a 2.0kg block of wood and emerges going 150m/s. If the block were stationary on a fric

tionless plane before the collision, what is the velocity of the block after the bullet passes through? What is the kinetic energy loss of the system?

Answer:

speed of block is 0.665 m/s

Kinetic energy loss is 237.16 J

Explanation:

Here we can use momentum conservation as there is no external force on the system in horizontal direction

so here we will have

m_1v_{1i} + m_2v_{2i} = m_1v_{1f} + m_2v_{2f}

0.022(210) + 2(0) = 0.022(150) + 2 v

4.62 = 3.3 = 2 v

v = \frac{4.63 - 3.3}{2}

v = 0.665 m/s

Now kinetic energy loss in the system is given as

Loss = KE_i - KE_f

Loss = \frac{1}{2}(0.022)(210^2) - (\frac{1}{2}(0.022)(150^2) + \frac{1}{2}(2)(0.665)^2)

Loss = 237.16 J

Plasma easily conducts electricity and responds to magnetic fields, but why?
Valentin [98]

Explanation:

Plasma can conduct electricity because plasma consists of electrically charged particles called ions, instead of uncharged particles such as atoms or molecules.

I need help with 2 questions . Please help c:
dezoksy [38]
A) According to the nebular theory, the Solar System formed from a huge gaseous nebula which at a certain point was perturbated. Atoms and molecules started colliding, forming planetesimals (a sort of big rocks). The planetesimals were attracted to each other by gravity, forming bigger warm almost spherical objects called protoplanets, which at the end cooled down forming planets.
Therefore the correct answer is "all of the above".

b) The planets closer to the Sun were (and still are) subject to higher temperatures, due to their close distance to the Sun. In these conditions, rocky materials undergo condensation, while iced gaseous materials undergo vaporization. In the outer parts of the Solar System temperatures are too low to allow these transformations.
The correct answer is again "all of the above".
