Answer:

C. a few days

Explanation:

The evidence that we will have to investigate is the gunshot residue on the body of the suspect. When a person fires a gun there will be a deposition of material from the components of the chemicals present in the gun. This deposit is called gunshot residue and consists of particles of the propellant or explosive primer.

Experimentation has shown that the period of time that is person will test possible for gunshot residue is 5.27 days.

Meteorite On October 9, 1992, a 27-pound meteorite struck a car in Peekskill, NY, creating a dent about 22 cm deep. If the initi
Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

8427375 N

Explanation:

From newton's equation of motion,

F = ma................. Equation 1

Where F = average force exerted on the meteorite by the car, m = mass of the meteorite, a = acceleration.

We can find the value of acceleration from newton's equation of motion

using,

v² = u²+2as.................. Equation 2

Where v = final velocity, u = initial velocity, a = acceleration, s = distance.

Make a the subject of the equation

a = (v²-u²)/2s............... Equation 3

Note: When the meteorite struck the car, it was brought to rest

Given: u = 550 m/s, v = 0 m/s ( brought to rest), s = 22 cm = 0.22 m

Substitute into equation 3

a = (0²-550²)/(2×0.22)

a = -302500/0.44

a = -687500 m/s²

Also given: m = 27 pound = (27×0.454) = 12.258 kg

Substitute into equation 1

F = 12.258(-687500)

F = -8427375 N

Note: The negative sign tells that the force act in opposite direction to the motion of the meteorite

Alex_Xolod [135]
<span>The four main stages of the sun's predicted evolution in order from beginning to end are as follows: main sequence (when a star's core is fusing hydrogen); red giant (larger star, where no hydrogen remains in the core); planetary nebula (surrounds an aging star; ring shaped nebula made of gas); and white dwarf (smaller star that tends to be as large as an actual planet; after nebula state).</span>

A charge Q is distributed uniformly around the perimeter of a ring of radius R. Determine the electric potential difference betw
il63 [147K]

Answer:

the electric potential difference between the point at the center of the ring and a point on its axis ΔV is ( 0.8356 )\frac{kQ}{R}

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

electric potential at the center of the ring V₀ = kQ / R

electric potential on the axis point Vr = kQ / √( R² + x² )

at a distance 6R from the center,

point at x = 6R

so distance circumference r = √( R² + (6R)² )

so

electric potential on the axis point Vr = kQ / √( R² + (6R)² )

Vr = kQ / R√37

Now

ΔV = V₀ - Vr

we substitute

ΔV = ( kQ / R) - ( kQ / R√37 )

ΔV =  kQ/R( 1 - 1/√37 )

ΔV =  kQ/R( 1 - 0.164398987 )

ΔV =  kQ/R( 0.8356 )

ΔV = ( 0.8356 )\frac{kQ}{R}       { where k = \frac{1}{4\pi e_0} }

Therefore, the electric potential difference between the point at the center of the ring and a point on its axis ΔV is ( 0.8356 )\frac{kQ}{R}
