Answer:

306 m/s

Explanation:

Law of conservation of momentum

m1v1 + m2v2 = (m1+m2)vf

m1 is the bullet's mass so it is 0.1 kg

v1 is what we're trying to solve

m2 is the target's mass so it is 5.0 kg

v2 is the targets velocity, and since it was stationary, its velocity is zero

vf is the velocity after the target is struck by the bullet, so it is 6.0 m/s

plugging in, we get

(0.1 kg)(v1) + (5.0 kg)(0 m/s) = (0.1 kg + 5.0 kg)(6.0 m/s)

(0.1)(v1) + 0 = 30.6

(0.1)(v1) = 30.6

v1 = 306 m/s

Question: What is the frequency of a wave that has a wave speed of 120 m/s and a wavelength of 0.40 m?

Answer: The equation that relates frequency of a wave to a waves speed and wavelength is Speed of Wave= Frequency X Wavelength. Since you are given speed and wavelength, you plug those two known numbers into the equation, 120= Frequency X 0.40. You then divide 120 by .4 to get your frequency of 300.

Please help me, this is a physics test.

Answer:

a = 2 [m/s²]

Explanation:

To be able to solve this problem we must make it clear that the starting point when the time is equal to zero, the velocity is 5 [m/s] and when three seconds have passed the velocity is 11 [m/s], this point is the final point or the final velocity.

We can use the following equation.

$v_{f}=v_{o}+a*t\\$

where:

Vf = final velocity = 11 [m/s]

Vo = initial velocity = 5 [m/s]

a = acceleration [m/s²]

t = time = 3 [s]

$11 = 5 + a*3\\6=3*a\\a= 2[m/s^{2} ]$

Find the unit vector in the direction of vector B=4i+2j-5k

solmaris [256]

Answer:

$\frac{4}{\sqrt{45} } i\,+\frac{2}{\sqrt{45} } j-\frac{5}{\sqrt{45} } k$

Explanation:

for the unit vector, we need to divide the given vector by its norm, because it should be in the SAME direction as the original vector, but of magnitude "1".

We notice that the norm of the given vector is:

$\sqrt{4^2+2^2+(-5)^2} =\sqrt{45}$

Then, the unit vector becomes:

$\frac{4}{\sqrt{45} } i\,+\frac{2}{\sqrt{45} } j-\frac{5}{\sqrt{45} } k$
