Two rubber bullets (each of the same mass) are fired at the same velocity towards two different blocks of equal mass. One block

is made of clay and the bullet gets stuck in it, the clay block bullet begins to move in the direction the bullet was fired. The other block is made of aluminum and the bullet bounces off the block, the aluminum block also begins to move in the direction the bullet was fired. Which block (clay or aluminum) will move with greater velocity after being struck by the bullet

Answer:

Aluminum board will move with a higher velocity

Explanation:

The velocity of the block will be higher when the impulse imparted by the bullet is higher.

In case of bullet bouncing off, the impulse imparted on the aluminum board is high and hence, it will move with a high velocity as compared to that of the clay board.

A car is traveling at 15 m/sm/s . Part A How fast would the car need to go to double its kinetic energy
GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

21.21 m/s

Explanation:

Let KE₁ represent the initial kinetic energy.

Let v₁ represent the initial velocity.

Let KE₂ represent the final kinetic energy.

Let v₂ represent the final velocity.

Next, the data obtained from the question:

Initial velocity (v₁) = 15 m/s

Initial kinetic Energy (KE₁) = E

Final final energy (KE₂) = double the initial kinetic energy = 2E

Final velocity (v₂) =?

Thus, the velocity (v₂) with which the car we travel in order to double it's kinetic energy can be obtained as follow:

KE = ½mv²

NOTE: Mass (m) = constant (since we are considering the same car)

KE₁/v₁² = KE₂/v₂²

E /15² = 2E/v₂²

E/225 = 2E/v₂²

Cross multiply

E × v₂² = 225 × 2E

E × v₂² = 450E

Divide both side by E

v₂² = 450E /E

v₂² = 450

Take the square root of both side.

v₂ = √450

v₂ = 21.21 m/s

Therefore, the car will travel at 21.21 m/s in order to double it's kinetic energy.

A speaker emits sound waves in all directions, and at a distance of 28 m from it the intensity level is 73 db. What is the total
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

P=0.197 Watt

Explanation:

Given That

B=73dB

Io= 1 * 10^-12

I=Io * 10^{\frac{B}{10} } \\I=2 * 10^{-5} Wm^{-2}  \\A=4 * pi * r^{2}\\ A=9852.03 m^{2}\\ Power= I * A\\P= 0.197 Watt

A lithium atom has three protons, three neutrons, and three electrons. What is the overall charge on this atom?
Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

0

Explanation:

The overall charge on this atom is 0.

  To find the charge on an atom;

           charge  = number of protons - number of electrons.

Note:

  • Protons are the positively charged particles in an atom
  • Electrons are the negatively charged particles in an atom
  • Neutrons carries no charges on them.

Since the atom is made up of equal number of protons and electrons, the charge on it is 0.

If the number of electrons is more, the atom will be negatively charge but if the number of protons is more, it will be positively charged.

Why the efficiency of heat engine is always less than 100%​
valina [46]

Answer:

because some waste heat is always produced produced in a heat engine.

Explanation:

the fraction of heat input that is converted to a net work output is a measure of the performance of the heat engine and is called the thermal efficiency.Since the machine does not contain a source of energy ,nor can it store energy ,from this conversation of energy the power output of machine can never be greater than its input,so efficiency can be less than 100%.
