Great question!

Thunder and lightning happen at the same time, but because light travels faster than sound, we see lightning before we hear thunder.

Because the light from it travels to you about 874 thousand times
as fast as the sound does, so the hearing part falls behind the seeing
part.

A(n) 10.1 g bullet is fired into a(n) 2.41 kg ballistic pendulum and becomes embedded in it. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8
fomenos

Answer:

v = 186.90\,\frac{m}{s}

Explanation:

The motion of ballistic pendulum is modelled by the appropriate use of the Principle of Energy Conservation:

\frac{1}{2}\cdot (m_{p}+m_{b})\cdot v^{2} = (m_{p}+m_{b})\cdot g \cdot h

The final velocity of the system formed by the ballistic pendulum and the bullet is:

v = \sqrt{2\cdot g\cdot h}

v = \sqrt{2\cdot (9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} )\cdot (0.031\,m)}

v\approx 0.78\,\frac{m}{s}

Initial velocity of the bullet can be calculated from the expression derived of the Principle of Momentum:

(0.0101\,kg)\cdot v = (2.41\,kg + 0.0101\,kg)\cdot (0.78\,\frac{m}{s} )

v = 186.90\,\frac{m}{s}

A wheel, starting from rest, rotates with a constant angular acceleration of 1.80 rad/s^2. During a certain 7.00 s interval, it
lora16 [44]

Answer:

a) 1.3 rad/s

b) 0.722 s

Explanation:

Given

Initial velocity, ω = 0 rad/s

Angular acceleration of the wheel, α = 1.8 rad/s²

using equations of angular motion, we have

θ2 - θ1 = ω(0)[t2 - t1] + 1/2α(t2 - t1)²

where

θ2 - θ1 = 53.2 rad

t2 - t1 = 7s

substituting these in the equation, we have

θ2 - θ1 = ω(0)[t2 - t1] + 1/2α(t2 - t1)²

53.2 =ω(0) * 7 + 1/2 * 1.8 * 7²

53.2 = 7.ω(0) + 1/2 * 1.8 * 49

53.2 = 7.ω(0) + 44.1

7.ω(0) = 53.2 - 44.1

ω(0) = 9.1 / 7

ω(0) = 1.3 rad/s

Using another of the equations of angular motion, we have

ω(0) = ω(i) + α*t1

1.3 = 0 + 1.8 * t1

1.3 = 1.8 * t1

t1 = 1.3/1.8

t1 = 0.722 s

Two identical silver spheres of mass m and radius r are placed a distance R (sphere 1) and 2R (sphere 2) from the Sun, respectiv
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

The ratio of T2 to T1 is 1.0

Explanation:

The gravitational force exerted on each sphere by the sun is inversely proporational to the square of the distance between the sun and each of the spheres.

Provided that the two spheres have the same radius r, the pressure of solar radiation too, is inversely proportional to the square of the distance of each sphere from the sun.

Let F₁ and F₂ = gravitational force of the sun on the first and second sphere respectively

P₁ and P₂ = Pressure of solar radiation on the first and second sphere respectively

M = mass of the Sun

m = mass of the spheres, equal masses.

For the first sphere that is distance R from the sun.

F₁ = (GmM/R²)

P₁ = (k/R²)

T₁ = (F₁/P₁) = (GmM/k)

For the second sphere that is at a distance 2R from the sun

F₂ = [GmM/(2R)²] = (GmM/4R²)

P₂ = [k/(2R)²] = (k/4R²)

T₂ = (F₂/P₂) = (GmM/k)

(T₁/T₂) = (GmM/k) ÷ (GmM/k) = 1.0

Hope this Helps!!!
