Explanation:

Law of conservation of energy states that the energy of a system is always constant. 

In other words, we can say that energy can neither be created nor destroyed.

Mechanical energy (E) is the sum of the potential energy (U) and the kinetic energy (K) of the freely falling body. Therefore, E=K+U=constant.

An observer stands 24.7 m behind a marksman practicing at a rifle range. The marksman fires the rifle horizontally, the speed of

GaryK [48]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

Velocity of bullet, $c_{p}$ = 814.8 m/s

Observer distance from marksman, d = 24.7 m

Let us assume that time necessary for report of rifle to reach the observer is t and will be calculated as follows.

t = $\frac{24.7}{343}$ (velocity in air = 343 m/s)

= 0.072 sec

Now, before the observer hears the report the distance traveled by the bullet is as follows.

$d_{b} = c_{b} \times t$

= $814.8 \times 0.072$

= 58.66

= 59 (approx)

Thus, we can conclude that each bullet will travel a distance of 59 m.

How does energy and temperature affect the density of fluids (liquids and gases)?

Alex Ar [27]

Answer: When a liquid or gas is heated, the molecules move faster, bump into each other, and spread apart. Because the molecules are spread apart, they take up more space. ... The molecules move more slowly and take up less space. Therefore temperature can affect density.

7. A toy car of mass 1.2 kg is driving vertical circles inside a hollow cylinder of radius 2.0m. It is moving at a constant spee

wlad13 [49]

Answer:

$N_{top}=9.8N\\N_{bottom}=33.4N$

b) $v_{min}=4.4m/s$

Explanation:

The net force on the car must produce the centripetal acceleration necessary to make this circle, which is $a_{cp}=\frac{v^2}{R}$ . At the top of the circle, the normal force and the weight point downwards (like the centripetal force should), while at the bottom the normal force points upwards (like the centripetal force should) and the weight downwards, so we have (taking the upwards direction as positive):

$-m\frac{v^2}{R}=-N_{top}-mg\\m\frac{v^2}{R}=N_{bottom}-mg$

Which means:

$N_{top}=m\frac{v^2}{R}-mg=(1.2kg)\frac{(6m/s)^2}{2m}-(1.2kg)(9.8m/s^2)=9.8N\\N_{bottom}=m\frac{v^2}{R}+mg=(1.2kg)\frac{(6m/s)^2}{2m}+(1.2kg)(9.8m/s^2)=33.4N$

The limit for falling off would be $N_{top}=0$ , so the minimum speed would be:

$0=m\frac{v_{min}^2}{R}-mg\\v_{min}=\sqrt{Rg}=\sqrt{(2m)(9.8m/s^2)}=4.4m/s$
