Answer:

179.47m/s

Explanation:

Using the law of conservation of momentum

m1u1 + m2u2 = (m1+m2)v

m1 and m2 are the masses

u1 and u2 are the initial velocities

v is the final velocity

Substitute

7750(179)+72(230) = (7750+72)v

1,387,250+16560 = 7822v

1,403,810 = 7822v

v = 1,403,810/7822

v= 179.47m/s

Hence the final velocity of the probe is 179.47m/s

A light bulb can be all of the following except
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer: A light bulb can be all of the following except option C (a consumer product if it is used to light the office of the board of directors.)

Explanation:

Products are classified as being BUSINESS or CONSUMER products according to the buyer's intended use of the product.

-Consumer products: these are sold goods that are used for personal, family, or household use. The intention of the buyer is for the products to satisfy his personal needs and desires. Example of some of the consumer products include: toothpaste, eatables and clothes.

Business products: products that are not for personal use but for the manufacturing of other goods are called business products.

Therefore a bulb is not serving as a personal use when used to light the office of the board of directors rather it's serving as a business product .

Which object has more gravitational potential energy? Use PE = m × g × h, where g = 9.8 meters/second2.
Andrew [12]
Gravitational potential energy can be calculated using the formula <span>PE = m × g × h, where g is the gravitational acceleration and is constant hence the energy is dependent directly to mass and the height of the object. Hence more PE is registered when the object is heavier and/or at greater initial height. </span>

A 6 cm diameter drill bit is used to drill a cylindrical hole through the middle of a sphere of radius 5 cm. What is the volume
ira [324]

Answer:

2.4086 * 10^(-4)  m^3

Explanation:

Volume of sphere = 4/3 * pi * r1^3

Volume of cylinder = pi*r2^2*h

r1 = 0.05 m

r2 = 0.03 m

Hence,

Resulting Volume = Volume of sphere - Volume of cylinder

= \frac{4}{3}*pi*(0.05)^3 - pi*(0.03)^2*(0.1)\\= 5.236 * 10^(-4)  - 2.8274*10^(-4) \\= 2.4086 * 10^(-4) m^3

Please help with this question, step by step<br><br>Thank you!
mamaluj [8]

From the calculation, the force constant is 192 N. Also, friction would decrease the extension.

<h3>What is the force constant?</h3>

We know that the force constant can be obtained by the use of the relation;

F = Ke

F = applied force

K = force constant

e = extension

We know from Hooks law that the force applied is directly proportional to the extension.

We can write;

F = mgcosθ

F = 43 Kg * 9.8 m/s^2 * sin31°

F = 217 N

K = 217 N/1.13 m

K = 192 N/m

If there is friction between the incline and the crate, it will stretch less because some work will be lost due to friction causing only some fraction of the elastic potential energy to be converted to kinetic energy.
