A) We balance the masses: 4(1.00728) vs 4.0015 + 2(0.00055)4.02912 vs. 4.0026This shows a "reduced mass" of 4.02912 - 4.0026 = 0.02652 amu. This is also equivalent to 0.02652/6.02E23 = 4.41E-26 g = 4.41E-29 kg.
b) Using E = mc^2, where c is the speed of light, multiplying 4.41E-29 kg by (3E8 m/s)^2 gives 3.96E-12 J of energy.
c) Since in the original equation, there is only 1 helium atom, we multiply the energy result in b) by 9.21E19 to get 3.65E8 J of energy, or 365 MJ of energy.

If you traveled 90 km in 0.50 hours, what <br><br> was your average speed

Alinara [238K]

Average speed = distance / time

Average speed = 90 km / 0.5 hrs

Average speed = 180 km per hour

A bullet of mass 11 g strikes a ballistic pendulum of mass 1.9 kg. The center of mass of the pendulum rises a vertical distance

Ymorist [56]

Answer:

The bullet's initial speed is 243.21 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the bullet, $m_b=11\ g=0.011\ kg$

Mass of the pendulum, $m_p=19\ kg$

The center of mass of the pendulum rises a vertical distance of 10 cm.

We need to find the bullet's initial speed if it is assumed that the bullet remains embedded in the pendulum. Let it is v. In this case, the energy of the system remains conserved. The kinetic energy of the bullet gets converted to potential energy for the whole system. So,

$\dfrac{1}{2}(m_b+m_p)V^2 =(m_b+m_p)gh\\\\V=\sqrt{2gh} \ .................(1)$

V is the speed of the bullet and pendulum at the time of collision

Now using conservation of momentum as :

$m_bv=(m_p+m_b)V$

Put the value of V from equation (1) in above equation as :

$v=\dfrac{(m_p+m_b)}{m_b}\sqrt{2gh} \\\\v=\dfrac{(1.9+0.011)}{0.011}\sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 0.1}\\\\v=243.21\ m/s$

So, the bullet's initial speed is 243.21 m/s.

sveticcg [70]

Given

v = 343 m/s

ac = 5g

ac = 5*9.8 m/s^2

ac = 49 m/s^2

where,

v: velocity

ac = centripetal aceleration

Procedure

We call the acceleration of an object moving in uniform circular motion—resulting from a net external force—the centripetal acceleration ac; centripetal means “toward the center” or “center seeking”.

Formula

$\begin{gathered} a_c=\frac{v^2}{r} \\ r=\frac{v^2}{a_c} \\ r=\frac{(343m/s)^2}{49m/s^2} \\ r=2401\text{ m} \end{gathered}$

The minimum radius not to exceed the centripetal acceleration is 2401 m.
