The conservation of momentum states that the total momentum in a system is constant if there is no external force acting on the system. The total momentum in the gun bullet system is 0 so it must stay that way.
The momentum of the bullet is mv = 0.015*500=7.5
The momentum of the gun must be the same to keep the total momentum of the system equal to zero, so we know that p = 7.5 for the gun.
Substituting this in we get:
7.5=3.1x
x=7.5/3.1
x=2.42
So the speed of the gun is 2.4m/s.
Answer:
50 N
Explanation:
Let the force in the horizontal rope be F₁ and the force in the diagonal rope be F₂:
The total force in the horizontal and vertical directions must be zero, since the object is at rest and is not accelerating.
The horizontal component of the forces:
F₁ + F₂ = -40N + F₂ = 0
F₂ = 40N
The vertical component of the forces:
F₁ + F₂ - mg = 0 + F₂ - mg = 0
F₂ = mg
If I assume the gravitational constant g = 10 m/s²:
F₂ = (3 kg) * (10 m/s²) = 30N
Adding the horizontal and vertical components of the force F₂:
F₂ = √((40N)² + (30N)²) = 50N
