A bullet moving at a speed of 152 m/s passes through a plank of wood at 128m/s. Another bullet moving at 97m/s passes through th

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

Some of the following statements regarding heat exchangers is (are) wrong, namely (A) Heat exchangers are devices where two movi
DaniilM [7]

Answer:

A,B,D,E are wrong

(A) Heat exchangers are devices where two moving fluid streams are mixed together (B) Heat exchangers are devices where two moving fluid streams exchange mass (D) Heat exchangers are devices where two moving fluid streams exchange mechanical work without mixing together (E) There is no heat transfer between the two fluids of an insulated heat exchanger

Explanation:

A heat exchanger can be regarded as a system that bring about transfer heat between two or more than two fluids. It can function in cooling process and heating processes, the fluids involves in this process can have a solid wall to separate them so as to prevent mixing, direct contact could also be utilized. The mechanism is making hot gas jets which could fire upward over a glowing water that is passing through pipes, as water moves along the pipe, heat energy is been absorbed and there is heating up i.e heat is transferred. One is cooked the other is heated up. It is very essential to insulate the whole steam system along with heat exchangers so that energy could be saved and the temperature of the surface would be at safe-to-touch range and also steam quality could be maintained. The types of heat exchanger we have are;

✓Shell and tube heat exchangers.

✓Condensers, evaporators, and boilers

✓Double pipe heat exchangers.

✓Plate heat exchangers.

It should be noted Heat exchangers are devices where two moving fluid streams exchange heat (thermal energy) without mixing together

Alecsey [184]

Answer:

0.05 cm

Explanation:

The compression of the original spring = 12 - 8.55 cm = 3.45 cm = 0.0345 m

By Hooke's law, F = ke

Where F is the applied force, k is the spring constant and e is the extension or compression. In the question, F is the weight of the car.

k = F/e = 1355 × 9.8 / 0.0345 = 384898.55 N/m

This is the spring constant of the original spring. The question mentions that the force constant of the new spring is 5855.00 N/m smaller. Hence, the force constant of the new spring is 384898.55 - 5855 = 379043.55 N/m

With the new spring installed, the compression will be

e = F/k = 1355 × 9.8 / 379043.55 = 0.035 m = 3.5 cm

The difference in the compressions of both springs = 3.5 cm - 3.45 cm = 0.05 cm
