Answer:
Force exerted = 25.41 kN
Explanation:
We have equation of motion
v² = u²+2as
u = 345 m/s, s = 8.9 cm = 0.089 m, v = 0 m/s
0² = 345²+2 x a x 0.089
a = -668679.78 m/s²
Force exerted = Mass x Acceleration
Mass of bullet = 38 g = 0.038 kg
Acceleration = 668679.78 m/s²
Force exerted = 25409.83 N = 25.41 kN
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>
= 21600 Joules or 21.6 Kilo joules
<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
Electrical energy is given by the formula = VIt ;
where V is the voltage in volts, I is the current in Amperes, and t is time in seconds.
Voltage = 120 volts
Current = 3 amperes
Time = 60 seconds or 1 minute
Therefore;
Electrical energy = 120 × 3 × 60
<u> = 21600 Joules or 21.6 Kilo joules</u>
