A 30-g bullet traveling horizontally at 300 m/s strikes a 1.0-kg block which is attached to a horizontal spring with a force con

stant of 2000 N/m and rests on a frictionless horizontal surface. The spring is on the far side of the block and aligned with the direction of travel of the bullet. The bullet becomes embedded in the block and, as a result of the impact, and the block slides against the spring. How far is the spring compressed before it reverses its direction of travel

Answer:

Explanation:

Using law of conservation of momentum during collision , velocity after collision can be found .

common velocity V = m v / ( m + M )

= .030 x 300 / ( .030 + 1 )

V= 8.7378 m /s

The kinetic energy of the bullet and block will be stored as elastic energy

1/2 ( M + m ) V² = 1/2 k A² where k is force constant and A is maximum compression in the spring .

( M + m ) V² =  k A²

1.030 x 8.7378² = 2000 x A²

A² = .0393

A= .1982 m .

= 19.82 cm

What type of potential energy is a 9 volt battery an example of?
Scilla [17]

Answer:

chemical potential energy​

Explanation:

A 9v battery comes in different formats, such that the most common one is the carbon-zinc and alkaline chemistry, so these are alkaline batteries (there are also rechargeable or lithium batteries, these also depend on chemical interactions).

These batteries "draw" the energy from chemical interactions of the materials inside of it, so the type of potential energy that is stored in a battery is actually chemical (regardless of the fact that the energy can be transformed into electrical energy later) the "potential" refers to how the energy is stored.

Then the correct option is chemical potential energy​

A horizontal wire 1 m long carries 0.4 A and is oriented 30° N of W. The Earth's magnetic field runs due north at this location
alexira [117]

Answer:

Explanation:

Force on a current carrying conductor in a magnetic field is given by the following expression

F = B i L where B is magnetic field perpendicular to wire or current , i is current and L is length of the wire.

Magnetic field of 1.5 x 10⁻⁵ T is making an angle of 60 degree with the wire so the component of field perpendicular to it

B = 1.5 X 10⁻⁵ Cos 30° = 1.3 x 10⁻⁵ T.

Force = BiL

= 1.3 X 10⁻⁵ X .4 X 1

= 5.2 X 10⁻⁶ N.

The direction of force can be found out from Fleming's left hand rule . It will be along downward direction.

Which object had more potential energy when it was lifted to a distance of 10 meters? Show your
vitfil [10]
When all of the objects are lifted to the same height, the object
that has the most mass also has the most potential energy.

If we knew anything about the masses of the objects in this question,
then we could be more specific.

Calculation:

    <em>Potential energy = (mass) x (gravity) x (height above the reference level)</em>.
