A bullet with mass 4.00 g and speed 650.0 m/s is fired at a block of wood with mass 0.0950 kg. The block rests on a "frictionles

s" surface and is thin enough so that the bullet passes completely through it. Immediately after the bullet exits the block, the speed of the block is 23.0 m/s. (a) What is the speed of the bullet after it exits the block? (answer: 104 m/s)

Answer:

The final speed of the bullet after exit = 104 m/s²

Explanation:

Law of conservation of momentum :

The law of conservation of momentum states that in a system of colliding object, the total momentum is conserved, provided there is no net external force acting on the system. I.e

Total momentum before collision = total momentum after collision

m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = m₁v₁ +m₂v₂............................equation 1

Making v₂ the subject of the equation,

v₂ ={(m₁u₁ + m₂u₂) - m₂v₂}/m₁ .......................equation 2

Where m₁  mass of the bullet, m₂ = mass of the block, u₁ = initial velocity of the bullet, u₂ = initial velocity of the block, v₁ = final velocity of the bullet, v₂ = final velocity of the block.

From the question,

m₁ = 4.00 g = 4/1000 = 0.004 kg, m₂ = 0.0950 kg, u₁ = 650 m/s, u₂ = 0 m/s  (the block was initially at rest before the bullet was fired at it), v₂ = 23 m/s

Substituting these values into equation 2,

v₁ = [{(0.004 × 650)+(0.0950 × 0)}- (0.0950 × 23)]/0.004

v₁ = (2.6 + 0 - 2.185)/0.004

v₁ = 0.415/0.004 = 103.75

v₁ ≈ 104 m/s

Answer:

26.4 m/s

Explanation:

4 g = 0.004 kg

By the law of momentum conservation, the momentum before and after the impact must be the same

P_{before} = P_{after}

0.004*650 = 0.004*23 + 0.095*v_b

v_b = \frac{2.508}{0.095} = 26.4 m/s

So the speed of the block after the impact is 26.4 m/s

if you jump from a window that is 2 meters up you will most likely break the bones in your legs when you land however on a tramp
Gemiola [76]
<span>The de-acceleration or negative acceleration of stopping is what damages bones. The ground is rigid and therefore the change in momentum when striking the ground will be large. On the trampoline, the elasticity of the material means that the momentum changes more slowly, resulting in smaller accelerations.</span>

On a snowy day, max (mass = 15 kg) pulls his little sister maya in a sled (combined mass = 20 kg) through the slippery snow. max
sesenic [268]

Work done by a given force is given by

W = F.d

here on sled two forces will do work

1. Applied force by Max

2. Frictional force due to ground

Now by force diagram of sled we can see the angle of force and displacement

work done by Max = W_1 = Fdcos\theta

W_1 = 12*5cos15

W_1 = 57.96 J

Now similarly work done by frictional force

W_2 = Fdcos\theta

W_2 = 4*5cos180

W_2= -20 J

Now total work done on sled

W_{net}= W_1 + W2

W_{net} = 57.96 - 20 = 37.96 J

Bumper car A (281 kg) moving +2.82 m/s makes an elastic collision with bumper car B (209 kg) moving -1.72 m/s. What is the veloc
Nuetrik [128]

The velocity of B after elastic collision is 3.45m/s

This type of collision is an elastic collision and we can use a formula to solve this problem.

<h3>Elastic Collision</h3>

v_2 = \frac{2m_1u_1}{m_1+m_2} - \frac{m_1 - m_2}{m_1 + m_2}u_2

The data given are;

  • m1 = 281kg
  • u1 = 2.82m/s
  • m2 = 209kg
  • u2 = -1.72m/s
  • v1 = ?

Let's substitute the values into the equation.

v_1 = \frac{2*281*2.82}{281+209} -\frac{281-209}{281+209}(-1.72)\\v_1 = 3.45m/s

From the calculation above, the final velocity of the car B after elastic collision is 3.45m/s.

Would tap water likely freeze and boil at those exact temperatures? (temperature freezes at 0 degree celius and boils at 100 deg
Kitty [74]

No

Explanation:

Tap water will not boil and freeze at those exact temperature which are the boiling and freezing points.

O°C and 100°C are the boiling points of pure water.

Pure water is a pure substance with a definite composition made up of 2 atoms of hydrogen and 1 atom of oxygen.

Pure water boils at  100°C  and freezes at O°C ,

  • Tap water is not pure water.
  • It has some impurities in it which causes causes the elevation of the boiling point of liquids and widening of the boiling range.
  • Tap water is treated water that contains some other dissolved chemicals.
