The conservation of momentum states that the total momentum in a system is constant if there is no external force acting on the system. The total momentum in the gun bullet system is 0 so it must stay that way.
The momentum of the bullet is mv = 0.015*500=7.5
The momentum of the gun must be the same to keep the total momentum of the system equal to zero, so we know that p = 7.5 for the gun.
Substituting this in we get:
7.5=3.1x
x=7.5/3.1
x=2.42
So the speed of the gun is 2.4m/s.
Answer:
The prediction for its maximum potential energy is 109,375 J
Explanation:
Given;
mass of the coaster car, m = 350 kg
speed of the coaster car at the lowest point, v = 25 m/s
The coaster car will have maximum kinetic energy at the lowest point and based on law of conservation of mechanical energy, the maximum kinetic energy of the coaster car at the lowest point will be equal to maximum potential energy at the highest point.
Therefore, the prediction for its maximum potential energy is 109,375 J
Answer:
a)
two like charges always repel each other while two unlike charges attract each other. Since the spring stretches by 0.039 m, the charges have the same sign. both charges are positive(+) or Negative (-)
b)
both q1 and q1 are 8.35 × 10⁻⁶ C or -8.35 × 10⁻⁶ C
Explanation:
Given that;
L = 0.26 m
k = 180 N/m
x = 0.039 m
a)
we know that two like charges always repel each other while two unlike charges attract each other. Since the spring stretches by 0.039 m, the charges have the same sign.
b)
Spring force F = kx
F = 180 × 0.039
F = 7.02 N
Now, Electrostatic force F = Keq²/r²
where r = L + x = ( 0.26 + 0.039 )
we know that proportionality constant in electrostatics equations Ke = 9×10⁹ kg⋅m3⋅s−2⋅C−2
so from the equation; F = Keq²/r²
Fr² = Keq²
q = √ ( Fr² / Ke )
we substitute
q = √ ( 7.02 N × ( 0.26 + 0.039 )² / 9×10⁹ )
q = √ ( 7.02 N × ( 0.26 + 0.039 )² / 9×10⁹ )
q = √ (0.627595 / 9×10⁹)
q = √(6.97 × 10⁻¹¹)
q = 8.35 × 10⁻⁶ C
Therefore both q1 and q1 are 8.35 × 10⁻⁶ C or -8.35 × 10⁻⁶ C
Answer:
840 cm
Explanation:
Note: A hydraulic press operate based on pascal's principle.
From pascal's principle
W₁/d₁ = W₂/d₂...................... Equation 1
Where W₁ and W₂ are the first and second weight, and d₁ and d₂ are the first and second diameter of the piston.
make d₁ the subject of the equation
d₁ = W₁×d₂/W₂................ Equation 2
Given: W₁ = 2100 kg, W₂ = 25 kg, d₂ = 10 cm = 0.1 m.
Substitute these values into equation 2
d₁ = 2100(0.1)/25
d₁ = 8.4 m
d₁ = 840 cm
m= 60g = 60/1000 Kg = 0.06 Kg
v = 2cm3 = 2 * (0.01^3) m3 = 2 *10^-6 m3
Density= m/v = 6 * 10^-2 / 2 *10^-6 = 3 *10^4 Kg/m3
