Answer:

im pretty sure its because wax has i higher melting point therefore it would cool quicker if the temperature dropped more. water has a lower melting point so it takes longer to freeze i think. i hope this helps

The IMA of a lever can be increased by decreasing the length between the applied effort and the pivot.
mina [271]
<span>We never really used the acronym "IMA", or ideal mechanical advantage, but I'm assuming you are trying to increase the leverage and ease the effort. If so, the answer is false. You want larger movement on the effort side, and smaller movement on the resistant side of the fulcrum.</span>

A 90kg cannon fires 100kg shell with muzzle velocity of 75m/s. Calculate the recoil velocity of the cannon relative to the groun
Gala2k [10]

Answer: 83.8 m/s

Explanation:

momentum of shell = momentum of cannon

M(s) × V(s) = M(c) × V(c)

M(s) = mass of shell, V(s) = velocity of shell

M(c) = mass of cannon, V(c) = velocity of cannon

100kg × 75m/s = 90kg × V(c)

7500 = 90 × V(c)

7500 ÷ 90 = V(c)

83.3 = V(c)

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
Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Conservation of momentum during the collision

0.023(230) + 2.0(0.0) = 0.023(170) + 2.0v

v = 0.69 m/s

The initial block kinetic energy will be converted to friction work

½mv² = Fd = μmgd

½(2.0)(0.69²) = 0.15(2.0)(9.8)d

d = 0.1619387... m

d = 16 cm
