As seen in the figure, a bullet with mass of 15.0-g is fired vertically and penetrates a block with mass of 2.5-kg and the block

moves upward 5.00 mm. The bullet comes to rest in the block in a time interval of 0.0011 s, and suppose that the force on the bullet is constant during this time interval. Find the kinetic energy of the bullet before penetration to the block.

Answer:

KE = 2.03 J

Explanation:

After impact, the kinetic energy of the bullet+block will convert to potential energy

½mv² = mgh

v = √(2gh) = √(2(9.81)(0.00500) = 0.0981 m/s

conservation of momentum during the collision

0.015u + 2.50(0) = (2.50 + 0.015)(0.0981)

u = 16.4481 m/s

KE = ½mv² = ½(0.015)16.4481² = 2.0290499...

KE = 2.03 J

A spring stretches 5 cm when a 300-N mass is suspended from it. Calculate the spring constant in N / m .
rusak2 [61]

Answer:

Spring constant in N / m = 6,000

Explanation:

Given:

Length of spring stretches = 5 cm = 0.05 m

Force = 300 N

Find:

Spring constant in N / m

Computation:

Spring constant in N / m = Force/Distance

Spring constant in N / m = 300 / 0.05

Spring constant in N / m = 6,000

As an interstellar cloud of hydrogen gas shrinks in size, its rate of rotation
FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

INCREASES, BECAUSE ITS ANGULAR MOMENTUM IS CONSERVED.

Explanation: Interstellar cloud of Hydrogen is an accumulation of Hydrogen gas in the cloud.

As the Interstellar cloud of Hydrogen shrinks (reduces) in size,the rate of rotation of the shrinked Interstellar cloud Increases because its angular momentum is conserved. GASEOUS MOLECULES MAKE UP ABOUT 99% OF THE INTERSTELLAR CLOUD WITH HYDROGEN HAVING ABOUT 90% OF THE VOLUME OF GASES IN THE INTERSTELLAR CLOUD.

Describe what happens to the system inside of a refrigerator or freezer in terms of heat transfer, work, and conservation of ene
Over [174]

Answer: A. Work is done on the system and heat is transferred from the system for a net decrease in internal energy.

Explanation:

A refrigerator is a device which dispenses heat from the close system to a warmer area or in the surrounding. By dispensing the heat the internal temperature of the refrigerator drops. The system of refrigerator violates the second law of thermodynamics. As it performs the work to cool the region instead of heating the region. The work is done on the system and the internal energy decreases and the heat energy is liberated to the surrounding area. A refrigerator is an open system.
