Answer:

Like your refrigerator, heat pumps use electricity to move heat from a cool space to a warm space, making the cool space cooler and the warm space warmer. ... The most common type of heat pump is the air-source heat pump, which transfers heat between your house and the outside air.

A 0.150 kg stone rests on a frictionless, horizontal surface. A bullet of mass 9.50 g, traveling horizontally at 380 m/s, strike

Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

(a)Magnitude=28.81 m/s

Direction=33.3 degree below the horizontal

(b) No, it is not perfectly elastic collision

Explanation:

We are given that

Mass of stone, M=0.150 kg

Mass of bullet, m=9.50 g= $9.50\times 10^{3} kg$

Initial speed of bullet, u=380 m/s

Initial speed of stone, U=0

Final speed of bullet, v=250m/s

a. We have to find the magnitude and direction of the velocity of the stone after it is struck.

Using conservation of momentum

$mu+ MU=mv+ MV$

Substitute the values

$9.5\times 10^{-3}\times 380 i+0.150(0)=9.5\times 10^{-3} (250)j+0.150V$

$3.61i=2.375j+0.150V$

$3.61 i-2.375j=0.150V$

$V=\frac{1}{0.150}(3.61 i-2.375j)$

$V=24.07i-15.83j$

Magnitude of velocity of stone

= $\sqrt{(24.07)^2+(-15.83)^2}$

|V|=28.81 m/s

Hence, the magnitude and direction of the velocity of the stone after it is struck, |V|=28.81 m/s

Direction

$\theta=tan^{-1}(\frac{y}{x})$

= $tan^{-1}(\frac{-15.83}{24.07})$

$\theta=tan^{-1}(-0.657)$

=33.3 degree below the horizontal

(b)

Initial kinetic energy

$K_i=\frac{1}{2}mu^2+0=\frac{1}{2}(9.5\times 10^{-3})(380)^2$

$K_i=685.9 J$

Final kinetic energy

$K_f=\frac{1}{2}mv^2+\frac{1}{2}MV^2$

= $\frac{1}{2}(9.5\times 10^{-3})(250)^2+\frac{1}{2}(0.150)(28.81)^2$

$K_f=359.12 J$

Initial kinetic energy is not equal to final kinetic energy. Hence, the collision is not perfectly elastic collision.

A running back with a mass of 70 kg travels down the field with a velocity of 5.0 m s . Calculate the kinetic energy of the foot

jarptica [38.1K]

K.E = 1/2 mv²

= 1/2 (70kg) (5.0ms)²

= 1 ˣ ( 1750) / 2

= 875 kgms²

Which type of surface would most likely be the best reflector of electromagnetic energy?

Len [333]

<span>light colored and smooth surface would most likely be the best reflector of electromagnetic energy.Light, shiny surfaces are the best reflectors of radiation and they will allow the waves to reflect and bounce off rather than absorb. we can consider mirror as the example ,it will only reflect the light energy falling on them and it will not absorb. The darker coloured and rough surfaced substances will definitely absorb some amount of light falling on it. so light coloured smooth or shiny surfaced material would be the best reflector for electromagnetic energy.</span>
