Answer:

12294.31 m/s

Explanation:

Momentum = (mass)(velocity)

Momentum before = Momentum after

(momentum of bullet)+(momentum of block)=(momentum of bullet and block)

0.035v+50(0)=(0.035+50)(8.6)

0.035v=430.301

v=12294.3142857m/s

Part C: Quantitative Problems when vf is not 0
Alina [70]

Answer:

(a)

\triangle v=-8\ m/s\\\triangle mv=-56\ kg.m/s

(b)

1120 N

Explanation:

Change in velocity, \triangle v is given by subtracting the initial velocity from the final velocity and expressed as \triangle v= v_f -v_i

Where v represent the velocity and subscripts f and i represent final and initial respectively. Since the ball finally comes to rest, its final velocity is zero. Substituting 0 for final velocity and the given figure of 8 m/s for initial velocity then the change in velocity is given by

\triangle v=0-8=-8\ m/s

To find m\triangle v then we substitute 7 kg for m and -8 m/s for \triangle v therefore \triangle\ v=7 Kg\times -8 m/s=-56\ Kg.m/s

(b)

The impact force, F is given as the product of mass and acceleration. Here, acceleration is given by dividing the change in velocity by time ie

a=\frac {\triangle v}{t}=\frac { v_f -v_i}{t}

Substituting t with 0.05 s then a=\frac {\triangle v}{t}=\frac { v_f -v_i}{t}=\frac {-8}{0.05}=-160 m/s^{2}

Since F=ma then substituting m with 7 Kg we get that F=7*-160=-1120 N

Therefore, the impact force is equivalent to 1120 N

A tank with a volume of 0.150 m3 contains 27.0oC helium gas at a pressure of 100 atm. How many balloons can be blown up if each
jekas [21]

Answer:

884 balloons

Explanation:

Assume ideal gas, since temperature is constant, then the product of pressure and volume is constant.

So if pressures reduces from 100 to 1.2, the new volume would be

V_2 = \frac{P_1V_1}{P_2} = \frac{100*0.15}{1.2} = 12.5 m^2

The spherical volume of each of the balloon of 30cm diameter (15 cm or 0.15 m in radius) is

V_b = \frac{4}{3}\pir^3 = \frac{4}{3}\pi 0.15^3 = 0.014 m^3

The number of balloons that 12.5 m3 can fill in is

V_2/V_b = 12.5 / 0.014 = 884
