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

Amy has a mass of 30 kg, and she is riding a skateboard traveling 5 m/s. What is her momentum?
Flauer [41]
Hey there!

So we know that m*v=P.
And in this question m=30
v=5 m/s
P = 30*5 Kgm/s
P = 150 Kgm/s

So, your final answer is 150 Kg.m/s

Hope this helps! :)

An accelerator produces a beam of protons with a circular cross section that is 2.0 mm in diameter and has a current of 1.0 mA.
rewona [7]

Answer:

the number density of the protons in the beam is 3.2 × 10¹³ m⁻³

Explanation:

Given that;

diameter D = 2.0 mm

current I = 1.0 mA

K.E of each proton is 20 MeV

the number density of the protons in the beam = ?

Now, we make use of the relation between current and drift velocity

I = MeAv ⇒ 1 / eAv

The kinetic energy of protons is given by;

K = \frac{1}{2}m_{p}v²

v = √( 2K / m_{p} )

lets relate the cross-sectional area A of the beam to its diameter D;

A = \frac{1}{4}πD²

now, we substitute for v and A

n = I / \frac{1}{4}πeD² ×√( 2K / m_{p} )

n = 4I/π eD² × √(m_{p} / 2K )

so we plug in our values;

n = ((4×1.0 mA)/(π(1.602×10⁻¹⁹C)(2mm)²) × √(1.673×10⁻²⁷kg / 2×( 20 MeV)(1.602×10⁻¹⁹ J/ev )

n =  1.98695 × 10¹⁸ × 1.6157967  × 10⁻⁵

n = 3.2 × 10¹³ m⁻³  

Therefore, the number density of the protons in the beam is 3.2 × 10¹³ m⁻³

Definition of measurements?​
skad [1K]

Answer:

Measurement is a comparison of an unknown quantity with a known fixed quantity of the same kind. The value obtained on measuring a quantity is called its magnitude. The magnitude of a quantity is expressed as numbers in its unit.

Answer answer answer it it it
Ann [662]

Answer:

(B) Parachutes

Explanation:

Air resistance works to slow down trains and airplanes, so it isn't desirable.  Air resistance also causes pendulums to slow and stop.

Parachutes need air resistance to slow a person's fall.  So air resistance is desirable here.

Heat engines take input energy in the form of heat, use some of that energy to do work, and exhaust the remainder. Similarly, a
Elanso [62]

Answer:

a).Q_{h}=1.5x10^5J

b).Q_{c}=13.2x10^3J

Explanation:

a).

Using the law of thermodynamic and using to isovolumetric

ΔU=Qh

Q_{h}=\frac{W_{net}}{Efficiency}

So to determine the internal energy knowing the work it do

Q_{h}=\frac{1.5x10^4J}{0.10}=1.5x10^5J

b).

Efficiency is the work done in relation of the work apply in this case to produce heat so:

E=\frac{Q_{h}-Q_{c}}{Q_{h}}

Solve to Qc

Q_{c}=Q_{h}*[1-E]

Q_{c}=1.5x10^4J*(1-0.10)

Q_{c}=13.2x10^3J
