A 2.0-kg pistol fires a 1.0-g bullet with a muzzle speed of 1000 m/s. The bullet then strikes a 10-kg wooden block resting on a

horizontal frictionless surface. The block and the embedded bullet then slide across the surface. The explosive charge in the pistol acts for 0.001 s. What is the average force exerted on the bullet while it is being fired

Answer:

1000 N

Explanation:

An impulse results in a change of momentum

FΔt = mΔv

F = 0.001 kg(1000 - 0) m/s / 0.001 s = 1000 N

A scuba diver at 70 m below the surface of a lake, where the temperature is 4 degrees C, releases an air bubble with a volume of
posledela

Answer:

121.3 cm^3

Explanation:

P1 = Po + 70 m water pressure (at a depth)

P2 = Po (at the surface)

T1 = 4°C = 273 + 4 = 277 K

V1 = 14 cm^3

T2 = 23 °C = 273 + 23 = 300 K

Let the volume of bubble at the surface of the lake is V2.

Density of water, d = 1000 kg/m^3

Po = atmospheric pressure = 10^5 N/m^2

P1 = 10^5 + 70 x 1000 x 10 = 8 x 10^5 N/m^2

Use the ideal gas equation

\frac{P_{1}V_{1}}{T_{1}}=\frac{P_{2}V_{2}}{T_{2}}

By substituting the values, we get

\frac{8\times 10^5\times 14}{277}=\frac{10^{5} \timesV_{2}}{300}

V2 = 121.3 cm^3

Thus, the volume of bubble at the surface of lake is 121.3 cm^3.

The tub of a washer goes into its spin-dry cycle, starting from rest and reaching an angular speed of 5.0 rev/s in 8.0 s. At thi
tatiyna

Answer:

50 revolutions

Explanation:

Data provided:

case I: From rest to top spin

The initial angular speed of the washer, ωi = 0 rev /s

Final angular speed of the washer ωf = 5 rev /s

Time taken, t₁ = 8 s

now,  

The angular displacement or the number of revolutions taken (θ₁) is calculated as:

  θ₁ = ωi t₁ + (1/2)α₁t₁²

where,

α is the angular acceleration

The angular acceleration can be calculated as:

  ωf - ωi = α₁t₁

on substituting the values, we get

8α₁ = 5 - 0

or

α₁ = 0.625 rev/s²

substituting the values in the equation for the number of revolutions, we get

θ₁ = 0 + (1/2) (0.625)(8)²

or

θ₁ = 20 revolutions

also,  

For the case II: From top spin to rest

we have

The initial angular speed, ωi = 5 rev /s

and the final angular speed, ωf = 0 rev /s

Total time taken, t₂ = 12 s

Now, angular acceleration for this case

  ωf - ωi = α₂t₂

on substituting the values, we have

  12α₂ = 0 - 5

α₂ = - 0.4166 rev/s²

Therefore, the number of revolutions ( i.e angular displacement  )

θ₂ = ωit₂ + (1/2)α₂t₂²

on substituting the values, we have

θ₂ = 5 × 12 + (1/2)(-0.4166)(12)²

or

θ₂ = 30 rev

Hence,

the total number of revolutions made by the washer during the 20s is  

θ = θ₁ + θ₂

or

θ = 20 rev + 30 rev

or

θ = 50 revolutions

An infant's toy has a 120 g wooden animal hanging from a spring. If pulled down gently, the animal oscillates up and down with a
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

0.37 m

Explanation:

The angular frequency, ω, of a loaded spring is related to the period, T,  by

\omega = \dfrac{2\pi}{T}

The maximum velocity of the oscillation occurs at the equilibrium point and is given by

v = \omega A

A is the amplitude or maximum displacement from the equilibrium.

v = \dfrac{2\pi A}{T}

From the the question, T = 0.58 and A = 25 cm = 0.25 m. Taking π as 3.142,

v = \dfrac{2\times3.142\times0.25\text{ m}}{0.58\text{ s}} = 2.71 \text{ m/s}

To determine the height we reached, we consider the beginning of the vertical motion as the equilibrium point with velocity, v. Since it is against gravity, acceleration of gravity is negative. At maximum height, the final velocity is 0 m/s. We use the equation

v_f^2 = v_i^2+2ah

v_f is the final velocity, v_i is the initial velocity (same as v above), a is acceleration of gravity and h is the height.

h = \dfrac{v_f^2 - v_i^2}{2a}

h = \dfrac{0^2 - 2.71^2}{2\times-9.81} = 0.37 \text{ m}

marishachu [46]
The waste products of a nuclear fission power plant can best be described as radioactive waste. 
These are the by-products from the processes carried out that produce nuclear energy. This type of waste is highly dangerous. A lot of attention has to be paid to the collection and disposal of this waste as it must not reach any near by water bodies for example. It can be deadly for life.
