Answer:

[MLT⁻²], the first option, is the answer.

Explanation:

Pressure is the unit expressed as force per unit area.

The dimensional formula of pressure is [MLT⁻²].

Thus the answer would be option 1!

<h3>What are stars?</h3>

Stars are a fixed luminous point in the sky which is a large and remote incandescent body

So therefore, the hypothetical upper limit to the mass a star can be before it self-destructs due to the massive amount of fusion it would produce is apparently as a result of Eddington luminosity

Water flows through a garden hose which is attached to a nozzle. The water flows through hose with a speed of 1.81 m/s and throu

Serggg [28]

Answer:

a) 17.086m

b) 0.1671 m

Explanation:

Given data: speed of water through the hose = 1.81 m/s

through the nozzle = 18.3 m/s

We know that maximum height of an object with upward velocity v is given by,

a) H = v^2/2g

where H is the maximum height water emerges

= 18.3^2/(2×9.8) = 17.086 m answer

b) Again,

H = v^2/2g

= 1.81^2/(2×9.8) = 0.1671 m

lord [1]

Given,

Distance from the surface to the center of the earth, d=4000 miles

Distance from the center to you at a height of 8000 miles, a= 8000+4000=12000 miles

The gravitational force acting on a person at the surface is equal to his weight.

From Newton's Universal Law of Gravitation, the gravitational force is

$F=\frac{G\times M\times m}{r^2}$

Where G is the gravitational constant, M is the mass of the earth, m is the mass of the object/person, r is the distance between the center of the earth and the object/person

At the surface, this force is equal to the weight of the person, W=mg

i.e.

$F_s=\frac{G\times M\times m}{d^2}=W$

On substituting the of d,

$W=\frac{\text{GMm}}{4000^2}$

At a height of 8000 miles from the surface, the gravitational force is equal to,

$F_a=\frac{GMm}{12000^2}$

On dividing the above two equations,

$\frac{F_a}{W}=\frac{4000^2^{}}{12000^2}=\frac{1}{9}$

Therefore,

$F_a=\frac{1}{9}W$

Therefore at a height of 8000 miles above the surface of the earth, the force of gravity becomes 1/9 time your weight.

a ballistic pendulum is used to measure the speed of high-speed projectiles. A 6 g bullet A is fired into a 1 kg wood block B su

Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

(a) v-bullet = 399.04 m/s

(b) I = 2.38 kg m/s

Explanation:

(a) To calculate the initial speed of the bullet, you first take into account that the kinetic energy of both wood block and bullet, just after the bullet impacts the block, is equal to the potential gravitational energy of block and bullet when the cord is at 60° respect to the vertical.

The potential energy is given by:

$U=(M+m)gh$ (1)

U: potential energy

M: mass of the wood block = 1 kg

m: mass of the bullet = 6g = 6.0*10^-3 kg

g: gravitational constant = 9.8m/s^2

h: distance to the ground

The distance to the ground is calculate d by using the information about the length of the cord and the degrees of the cord respect to the vertical:

$h=l-lsin\theta\\\\h=2.2m-2,2m\ sin60\°=0.29m$

The potential energy is:

$U=(1kg+6*10^{-3}kg)(9.8m/s^2)(0.29m)=2.85J$

Next, the potential energy is equal to kinetic energy of the block and the bullet at the beginning of its motion:

$U=\frac{1}{2}(M+m)v^2\\\\v=\sqrt{2\frac{U}{M+m}}=\sqrt{2\frac{2.85J}{1kg+6*10^{-3}kg}}=2.38\frac{m}{s}$

Next, you use the momentum conservation law, in order to calculate the speed of the bullet before the impact:

$Mv_1+mv_2=(M+m)v$ (2)

v1: initial velocity of the wood block = 0m/s

v2: initial speed of the bullet

v: speed of bullet and block = 2.38m/s

You solve the equation (2) for v2:

$M(0)+mv_2=(M+m)v$

$v_2=\frac{M+m}{m}v=\frac{1kg+6*10^{-3}kg}{6*10^{-3}kg}(2.38m/s)\\\\v_2=399.04\frac{m}{s}$

The speed of the bullet before the impact with the wood block is 399.04 m/s

(b) The impulse is gibe by the change in the velocity of the block, multiplied by the mass of the block:

$I=M\Delta v=M(v-v_1)=(1kg)(2.38m/s-0m/s)=2.38kg\frac{m}{s}$

The impulse is 2.38 kgm/s

(c) The force on the cord after the impact is equal to the centripetal force over the block and bullet. That is:

$T=F_c=(M+m)\frac{v^2}{l}=(1.006kg)\frac{(2.38m/s)^2}{2.2m}=2.59N$

The force on the cord after the impact is 2.59N
