The buoyant force on a floating object is equal to the object's weight.

So the vertical forces on the object are balanced. That's a big part
of the reason why it's just sitting there and not accelerating up or down.

A 70 kg hunter, standing on frictionless ice, shoots a 42 g bullet horizontally at a speed of 590 m/s . Part A Part complete Wha

Kisachek [45]

Answer:

The recoil velocity is 0.354 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of hunter = 70 kg

Mass of bullet = 42 g = 0.042 kg

Speed of bullet = 590 m/s

We need to calculate the recoil speed of hunter

Using conservation of momentum

$m_{1}u_{1}+m_{2}u_{2}=m_{1}v_{1}+m_{2}v_{2}$

Where, $m_{1}$ = mass of hunter

$m_{2}$ = mass of bullet

u = initial velocity

v = recoil velocity

Put the value in the equation

$0+0=70\times v_{1}+0.042\times590$

$v_{1}=-\dfrac{0.042\times590}{70}$

$v=-0.354\ m/s$

Hence, The recoil velocity is 0.354 m/s.

Calculate the magnitude and direction of the electric field 2.0 m from a long wire that is charged uniformly at λ = 4.0 × 10-6 C

Len [333]

Answer: 71.93 *10^3 N/C

Explanation: In order to calculate the electric field from long wire we have to use the Gaussian law, this is:

∫E*dr=Q inside/εo Q inside is given by: λ*L then,

E*2*π*r*L=λ*L/εo

E= λ/(2*π*εo*r)= 4* 10^-6/(2*3.1415*8.85*10^-12*2 )= 71.93 * 10^3 N/C
