A spring gun is made by compressing a spring in a tube and then latching the spring at
inn [45]

Answer:

a)v=13.2171\,m.s^{-1}

b)H=8.9605\,m

Explanation:

Given:

mass of bullet, m=4.97\times 10^{-3}\,kg

compression of the spring, \Delta x=0.0476\,m

force required for the given compression, F=9.12 \,N

(a)

We know

F=m.a

where:

a= acceleration

9.12=4.97\times 10^{-3}\times a

a\approx 1835\,m.s^{-2}\\

we have:

initial velocity,u=0\,m.s^{-1}

Using the eq. of motion:

v^2=u^2+2a.\Delta x

where:

v= final velocity after the separation of spring with the bullet.

v^2= 0^2+2\times 1835\times 0.0476

v=13.2171\,m.s^{-1}

(b)

Now, in vertical direction we take the above velocity as the initial velocity "u"

so,

u=13.2171\,m.s^{-1}

∵At maximum height the final velocity will be zero

v=0\,m.s^{-1}

Using the equation of motion:

v^2=u^2-2g.h

where:

h= height

g= acceleration due to gravity

0^2=13.2171^2-2\times 9.8\times h

h=8.9129\,m

is the height from the release position of the spring.

So, the height from the latched position be:

H=h+\Delta x

H=8.9129+0.0476

H=8.9605\,m

Which phrase desenbes an irregular galaxy ?
Andrews [41]

Answer:

contains many young stars

Explanation:

Irregular galaxies have <em>no definite shape</em>, which means that the first option is incorrect. They are definitely not round.

However,<u> they contain many young stars because the degree of star formation is fast.</u> They also contain old stars. Thus, the second choice is correct.

The "spiral galaxy" is the type of galaxy that has arms that extend from the center. These arms look "spiral," which influenced its name. This makes the last choice incorrect.

They are actually <u>smaller than the other types of galaxies.</u> This makes them <em>prone to collisions</em>. This makes the last choice incorrect.

Learning Goal: To understand the behavior ofthe electric field at the surface of a conductor, and itsrelationship to surface cha
Ivan

Complete Question

The complete question is shown on the first uploaded image  

Answer:

a   it is always zero

b  0

c  \eta  =  -\epsilon _o E

Explanation:ss

Here the  net charge is  on the outer surface of the conductor thus this means that the net charge inside the conductor is zero

Generally the charge density of a conductor is dependent on the charge per unit area  which implies that the charge density is dependent on the net charge  so this  means that the charge density inside the conductor is zero

 

Generally the direction of electric field this from the  positive charge to the negative charge  so from the question we can deduce  that the negative charge is located on the surface of the conductor

    So We can mathematically define the charge density on the surface of the electric field as

             ∮E \cdot dA =  \frac{-Q}{\epsilon _o}

Where E is the electric field

          dA change in unit area

           -Q is the negative charge

          \epsilon _o  is the permittivity of free space

So

          EA  =  \frac{-Q}{\epsilon _o }

           \frac{Q}{A}  =  -\epsilon _o E

          \eta  =  -\epsilon _o E

Where \eta is the charge density
