Answer:

The pressure of liquid column is given by p=hpg, where h is depth, p is density and g is acceleration due to gravity.

Therefore, pressure of the liquid column increases with depth. The height of the blood column in a human body is more at feet than at the brain. Therefore, the blood pressure in humans is greater at the feet than the brain.

A 23 g bullet traveling at 230 m/s penetrates a 2.0 kg block of wood and emerges cleanly at 170 m/s. If the block is stationary

Ann [662]

The distance traveled by the wood after the bullet emerges is 0.16 m.

The given parameters;

mass of the bullet, m = 23 g = 0.023 g
speed of the bullet, u = 230 m/s
mass of the wood, m = 2 kg
final speed of the bullet, v = 170 m/s
coefficient of friction, μ = 0.15

The final velocity of the wood after the bullet hits is calculated as follows;

$m_1u_1 + m_2 u_2 = m_1v_1 + m_2v_2\\\\0.023(230) + 2(0) = 0.023(170) + 2v_2\\\\5.29 = 3.91 + 2v_2\\\\2v_2 = 1.38\\\\v_2 = \frac{1.38}{2} = 0.69 \ m/s$
