Answer:

The value is  KE_b =0.710 \ J

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The mass  of the bullet is m_b  = 5.00 \ g  = 0.005 \  kg

  The mass  of the wood is  m_w =  900 \  g  =  0.90\  kg

   The height attained by the combined mass is  h =  8.0 \ cm  =  0.08 \ m

Generally according to the law of energy conservation    

    KE _b  =  PE_c

Here KE_b is the kinetic energy of the bullet before collision.

and PE_c is the  potential  energy of the combined mass of bullet and wood at the height h which is mathematically represented as

      PE_m  =  [m_b  + m_w] *  g *  h

So

   KE_b =PE_c   = [0.005  + 0.90] * 9.8 *0.08

=> KE_b =0.710 \ J

Veseljchak [2.6K]
Using the Debroglies equation,energy can be found,as 1.9773*10*-9
then, energy* wave length= hc
c is the speed of light and is the planks constant.
wave length =1.006*10*-16 m

What information is given by the formula of an ionic compound?
Sergio [31]
MgCl2 is ionic compound.........Mg +2 and Cl -1
both charges are cross multiplied to each element......formula tells us that to balance the positive and negative charges on both sides they are cross multiplied........MgCl2......meaning there is one atom of Mg and 2 atoms of Cl.......

A steel ball bearing is released from a height H and
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

ELASTIC collision

kinetic energy is conservate

Explanation:

As the ball bounces to the same height, it can be stated that the impact with the floor is ELASTIC.

As the floor does not move the conservation of the moment

            po = pf

            -mv1 = m v2

- v1 = v2

So the speed with which it descends is equal to the speed with which it rises

Therefore the kinetic energy of the ball before and after the collision is the same
