A bullet of mass 20g is a fired with a velocity of 50mls from a gun of mass 2.5kg. Calculate the recoil velocity of the gun.​

Physics
1 answer:
jok3333 [9.3K]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

v = - 0.4 m/s

Explanation:

Initial momentum is zero as neither gun nor bullet have velocity

Conservation of momentum

0 = 0.020(50) + 2.5v

v = - 0.4 m/s

Which image shows the correct way of lining up vectors to add them together? A. two arrows lined up facing away from each anothe
Morgarella [4.7K]

The image shows the correct way of lining up vectors to add them together, that the two arrows lined up one after the other, therefore the correct answer is option B.

<h3>What is a vector quantity?</h3>

The quantities that contain the magnitude of the quantities along with the direction are known as the vector quantities.

Examples of vector quantities are displacement, velocity acceleration, force, etc.

Thus, the image shows the correct way of lining up vectors to add them together, that the two arrows lined up one after the other, therefore the correct answer is option B.

Describe the conversions between potential and kinetic energy that occur when you shoot a basketball at a basket
Aleks04 [339]
When you shoot a basketball at a basket, the energy from your hands is transferred into the basketball. When you hold the ball up in preparation to shoot, it has potential energy, meaning that it has stored energy that can turn into kinetic energy. When you shoot it, that potential energy turns into kinetic energy, causing the basketball to move.

A 3.5 kW drill transfers 5 000 kJ of kinetic energy during 15 seconds of use. What is the percentage efficiency of the drill?
Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

1.04%

Explanation:

Given that,

The power of drill = 3.5 kW = 3500 W

Transferred kinetic energy = 5000 kJ during 15 seconds of use.

We need to find the percentage efficiency of the drill. It can be given by :

\eta=\dfrac{P_o}{P_i}\times 100

Where

Po and Pi are output and input powers.

P_o=\dfrac{5000\times 10^3}{15}\\\\=3.34\times 10^5\ W

So,

\eta=\dfrac{3500}{3.34\times10^{5}}\times100\\\\=1.04\%

So, the percentage efficiency of the drill is 1.04%.

Which statement is true about an object moving in a circular motion due to centripetal force, F, when the mass is doubled? A. It
Allushta [10]
Force = [Mass x (velocity)^2]/Radius
Therefore,
The mass and the force are directly proportional.If you double the mass,the force will be doubled too.

A. Its centripetal force would <span>be doubled.</span>
