Answer:

The speed of the plank is 81.68 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Speed of bullet = 152 m/s

Speed of wood = 128 m/s

Speed of another bullet = 97 m/s

We need to calculate the speed of plank

Using conservation of momentum

m_{1}u_{1}=(m_{1}+m_{2})v

Where,

u = initial velocity

v = final velocity

152m_{1}=(m_{1}+m_{2})128....(I)

m_{1}97=(m_{1}+m_{2})v....(II)

From equation(I) and equation(II)

\dfrac{152}{97}=\dfrac{128}{v}

= \dfrac{128\times97}{152}

v=81.68\ m/s

Hence, The speed of the plank is 81.68 m/s

Suppose a 2.0kg bird is flying at a speed of of 1m/s. It’s kinetic energy would be what?
Ganezh [65]

As we know that the formula of kinetic energy will be

KE = \frac{1}{2} mv^2

now here we know that

m = 2 kg

v = 1 m/s

so from the above equation we have

KE = \frac{1}{2}(2)(1^2)

KE = 1 J

How does Mercury's close proximity to the sun and thin atmosphere affect its ability to maintain liquid water
alekssr [168]

Answer

A thin atmosphere does not supply much oxygen, and the heat from the sun would evaporate it, because mercury is close to the sun.
