A hunter on a frozen, essentially frictionless pond uses a rifle that shoots 4.20g bullets at 965m/s. the mass of the hunter (in

cluding his gun) is 72.5kg, and the hunter holds tight to the gun after firing it. find the recoil velocity if he fires the velocity horizontally. enter as positive. find the recoil velocity if he first the rifle at 56.0° above the horizontal. enter as positive.

When the gun is fired horizontally :

m = mass of each bullet = 4.20 g = 0.0042 kg

v = velocity of the bullet after fire = 965 m/s

M = mass of the hunter including gun  = 72.5 kg

V = velocity of hunter including gun after fire = ?

V' = velocity of the combination of bullet , gun and hunter before fire = 0 m/s

Using conservation of momentum

m v + M V = (m + M) V'

(0.0042) (965) + (72.5) V = (0.0042 + 72.5) (0)

V = - 0.056 m/s

so recoil velocity comes out to be 0.056 m/s



When the gun is fired at angle 56.0⁰ above the horizontal :

m = mass of each bullet = 4.20 g = 0.0042 kg

v = velocity of the bullet after fire = 965 Cos56 = 539.62 m/s

M = mass of the hunter including gun  = 72.5 kg

V = velocity of hunter including gun after fire = ?

V' = velocity of the combination of bullet , gun and hunter before fire = 0 m/s

Using conservation of momentum

m v + M V = (m + M) V'

(0.0042) (539.62) + (72.5) V = (0.0042 + 72.5) (0)

V = - 0.031 m/s

so recoil velocity comes out to be 0.031 m/s

Howdy!!

your answer is ----


total resistance 1/R = 1/9+1/9+1/9
= 3/9

=> R = 9/3 = 3 ohm
according to ohms law

voltage = current × resistance

= 4 × 3 = 12 volt


hope it help you

A device for training astronauts and jet fighter pilots is designed to rotate the trainee in a horizontal circle of radius 11.0
kvv77 [185]

The velocity of the trainee is 29 m/s or 0.42 rev/s

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Acceleration is rate of change of velocity.

\large {\boxed {a = \frac{v - u}{t} } }

\large {\boxed {d = \frac{v + u}{2}~t } }

<em>a = acceleration (m / s²)v = final velocity (m / s)</em>

<em>u = initial velocity (m / s)</em>

<em>t = time taken (s)</em>

<em>d = distance (m)</em>

Centripetal Acceleration of circular motion could be calculated using following formula:

\large {\boxed {a_s = v^2 / R} }

<em>a = centripetal acceleration ( m/s² )</em>

<em>v = velocity ( m/s )</em>

<em>R = radius of circle ( m )</em>

Let us now tackle the problem!

<u>Given:</u>

Radius of horizontal circle = R = 11.0 m

Force Felt by the Trainee = F = 7.80w

<u>Unknown:</u>

Velocity of Rotation = v = ?

<u>Solution:</u>

F = ma

F = m\frac{v^2}{R}

7.80w = m\frac{v^2}{R}

7.80mg = m\frac{v^2}{R}

7.80g = \frac{v^2}{R}

7.80 \times 9.8 = \frac{v^2}{11.0}

v^2 = 840.84

v \approx 29 ~m/s

\omega = \frac{v}{R}  → in rad/s

\omega = \frac{v}{2 \pi R}  → in rev/s

\omega = \frac{29}{2 \pi \times 11.0}

\omega \approx 0.42 ~ rev/s
