A 75-g bullet is fired from a rifle having a barrel 0.540 m long. Choose the origin to be at the location where the bullet begin
Mashutka [201]

The given question is incomplete. The complete question is as follows.

A 75-g bullet is fired from a rifle having a barrel 0.540 m long. Choose the origin to be at the location where the bullet begins to move. Then the force (in newtons) exerted by the expanding gas on the bullet is 14,000 + 10,000x − 26,000x^{2}, where x is in meters. Determine the work done by the gas on the bullet as the bullet travels the length of the barrel.

Explanation:

We will calculate the work done as follows.

     W = \int_{0}^{0.54} F dx

         = \int_{0}^{0.54} (14,000 + 10,000x - 26,000x^{2}) dx

         = [14000x + 5000x^{2} - 8666.7x^{3}]^{0.54}_{0}

         = 7560 + 1458 - 1364.69

         = 7653.31 J

or,      = 7.65 kJ       (as 1 kJ = 1000 J)

Thus, we can conclude that the work done by the gas on the bullet as the bullet travels the length of the barrel is 7.65 kJ.

It requires 49 J of work to stretch an ideal very light spring from a length of 1.4 m to a length of 2.9 m. What is the value of
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

44 N/m

Explanation:

The extension, e, of the spring = 2.9 m - 1.4 m = 1.5 m

The work needed to stretch a spring by <em>e</em> is given by

W = \frac{1}{2} ke^2

where <em>k</em> is spring constant.

k = \dfrac{2W}{e^2}

Using the appropriate values,

k = \dfrac{2\times 49\text{ J}}{1.5^2\text{ m}^2} = 43.55\ldots\text{ N/m} \approx 44\text{ N/m}

A closed system consisting of 10 lb of air undergoes a polytropic process from p1 = 75 lbf/in2, v1 = 4 ft3/lb to a final state w
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

The polytropic exponent (n) is 1.2

The amount of energy transfer by work is 552.45 Btu

Explanation:

P1V1^n = P2V2^n

P1 = 75 lbf/in^2 = 75 lbf/in^2 × 143.3 in^2/ft^2 = 10,747.5 lbf/ft^2

V1 = 4 ft^3/lb × 10 lb = 40 ft^3

P2 = 20 lbf/in^2 = 20 × 143.3 = 2866 lbf/ft^2

V2 = 12 ft^3/lb × 10 lb = 120 ft^3

(V2/V1)^n = P1/P2

(120/40)^n = 10747.5/2866

3^n = 3.75

ln 3^n = ln 3.75

n ln 3 = ln 3.75

n = ln 3.75/ln 3 = 1.2

W = (P2V2 - P1V1)/1 - n = (2866×120 - 10747.5×40)/1-1.2 = (343,920 - 429,900)/-0.2 = -85,980/-0.2 = 429,900 lbf.ft = 429,900/778.17 Btu = 552.45 Btu

Explain the conservation of energy in terms of the energy transformation(s) that occur when you strike (light) a match.
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

The conservation of energy of energy states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed but can be transferred from one form to other. It also states that energy of bodies remain constant in a closed system.

While striking (light) a match, the mechanical energy is utilized is transformed  to thermal energy, this thermal energy then releases the chemical energy stored in match. The chemical energy at the ends transform to thermal energy which is visible as as light.

So, in this  the energy transformation that occurs remain constant.
