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

Two identical parallel plate capacitors A and B connected to a battery of V volts w/ the switch S closed. The switch is now open
Basile [38]
The electrostatic energy stored in a capacitor with capacitance C_0, with a voltage difference V applied to it, and without dielectric, is given by
U_0 =  \frac{1}{2} C_0 V^2
Now let's assume we fill the space between the two plates of the capacitor with a dielectric with constant k. The new capacitance of the capacitor is
C_k = k C_0
So, the energy stored now is
U_k =  \frac{1}{2}C_k V^2= \frac{1}{2}kC_0 V^2

Therefore, the ratio between the energies stored in the capacitor before and after the introduction of the dielectric is
\frac{U_k}{U_0}= \frac{ \frac{1}{2}kC_0 V^2 }{ \frac{1}{2} C_0 V^2}=  k

calculate the momentum of 5.07 kg egg that is dropped from a roof and falls 2 seconds before hitting the ground.
inysia [295]
Anything that's dropped on or near the Earth accelerates at the rate of
9.8 m/s² on its way down.  The mass of the object makes no difference. 
After falling for 2 seconds, it's falling at the rate of 19.6 m/s.

Momentum = (mass) x (speed)

The egg's momentum is   (5.07 kg) x (19.6 m/s) = 99.4 kg-m/s .

Part C: Quantitative Problems when vf is not 0
Alina [70]

Answer:

(a)

\triangle v=-8\ m/s\\\triangle mv=-56\ kg.m/s

(b)

1120 N

Explanation:

Change in velocity, \triangle v is given by subtracting the initial velocity from the final velocity and expressed as \triangle v= v_f -v_i

Where v represent the velocity and subscripts f and i represent final and initial respectively. Since the ball finally comes to rest, its final velocity is zero. Substituting 0 for final velocity and the given figure of 8 m/s for initial velocity then the change in velocity is given by

\triangle v=0-8=-8\ m/s

To find m\triangle v then we substitute 7 kg for m and -8 m/s for \triangle v therefore \triangle\ v=7 Kg\times -8 m/s=-56\ Kg.m/s

(b)

The impact force, F is given as the product of mass and acceleration. Here, acceleration is given by dividing the change in velocity by time ie

a=\frac {\triangle v}{t}=\frac { v_f -v_i}{t}

Substituting t with 0.05 s then a=\frac {\triangle v}{t}=\frac { v_f -v_i}{t}=\frac {-8}{0.05}=-160 m/s^{2}

Since F=ma then substituting m with 7 Kg we get that F=7*-160=-1120 N

Therefore, the impact force is equivalent to 1120 N

Silver has a mass of 10.5 grams and a volume of 19.3 cm3. What is its density?
Neko [114]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 0.54 g/cm³</h3>

Explanation:

The density of a substance can be found by using the formula

density =  \frac{mass}{volume}  \\

From the question we have

density =  \frac{10.5}{19.3}  \\  = 0.54404145...

We have the final answer as

<h3>0.54 g/cm³</h3>

Hope this helps you

Which statement describes the process of subduction? Convection currents pull a plate into the mantle. One plate slides beneath
mixas84 [53]

Answer:

  • Subduction is the geological process in which one plate moves under another due to gravitational pull. The regions where this process occurs called subduction zones.
  • A subduction is a tectonic plate which is made up of crust and upper layer of mantle. These two layers are called as lithosphere.
  • Example:  South America, central America and cascade volcanoes. In which the oceanic plate descends beneath a continental plate.
