P5. A bullet with an initial velocity of 280 m/s in the x-direction penetrates an initially stationary block of mass 11 kg and e

merges on the other side with a final velocity of 70 m/s in the x-direction. The velocity of the block after the collision is 0.2 m/s, also in the x-direction. Assume the block slides on a horizontal frictionless surface. What is the mass of the bullet

Answer:

the mass of the bullet is 10.5 g

Explanation:

Given;

initial velocity, u₁ = 280 m/s

final velocity of the bullet, v₁ = 70 m/s

final velocity of the block, v₂ = 0.2 m/s

mass of the block, m₂ = 11 kg

initial velocity of the block, u₂ = 0

let the mass of the bullet = m₁

Apply the principle of conservation of linear momentum for elastic collision to calculate the mass of the bullet.

m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = m₁v₁  + m₂v₂

280m₁  +  11(0)  = 70m₁  +  11 x 0.2

280m₁ = 70m₁  + 2.2

280m₁ - 70m₁  = 2.2

210m₁ = 2.2

m₁ = 2.2/210

m₁ = 0.0105 kg

m₁ = 10.5 g

Therefore, the mass of the bullet is 10.5 g

A. How far does a 100-newton force have to move to do 1,000 joules
Aloiza [94]

Work done by a force is given as the product of force and the distance moved by the force.

<h3>What is work done?</h3>

Work done is the product of force and the distance moved by the the force.

  • Work done = Force × distance

Thus, distance required by the 100 N force is given as:

  • Distance = work done/force

Distance = 1000/100 = 10 m

Distance to be moved is 10 m.

Force applied = work done/ distance

Force applied by the hoist = 500/2

Force applied by the hoist = 250 N

Distance moved in one push-up = 25 cm = 0.25 m

Work done by the athlete after one push-up = 250 × 0.25 m

Work done by the athlete = 62.5 J

Distance moved by the force = 0 m

Work done = 500 × 0 = 0 N

Therefore, for work to be done, force has to move a distance.

Simora [160]
The gravitational force on the car is

(9.8 m/s^2) x (the car's mass in kg).

The unit is newtons.

stepladder [879]

Answer:

Hey man, are you who I think you are? ... you used your student number on your account.... anyways im in your class :) guess who I am for free points. so the formula for period is Period=Wavelength/Velocity, so P=.85/velocity, to find velocity would be using the formula speed=distance/time, so the velocity is 2000/9.8 which is around 204.0816327.... so back to period formula, P=.85m/204.08 which gives a period of .004165. But im not entire sure so you have to check that on your own. (gl guessing who I am. hehe)
