Answer:

x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

When doing these types of problems, the main goal is to get the variable by itself. Its kind of hard to explain with words so I will just use numbers.

15x + 14 = 149

(Subtract 14 on both sides. Remember, when you do something (Like subtracting, adding, etc.) on one side you have to do it to the other.)

15x + 14 = 149

-14 = -14

---------------------------

15x = 135

(Divide 15 on both sides. Since we need to use inverse operation to cancel the 15 out, we would divide 15 on both sides.)

15x/15 = 135/15

x = 9

Hope this helps :)

In 10 s, 200 bullets strike and embed themselves in a wall. The bullets strike the wall perpendicularly. Each bullet has a mass

$\large\bf{a) \triangle p_{1s} = - 120 \: kgm {s}^{ - 1} }$

$\large\bf{b) F = -120N}$

$\large\bf{c) Pressure=40.10\times 10^5 pa }$

__________________________________________

$\large\bf{\underline{In\: this\: problem\:we\:have:}}$

$\bf{N = 200\: bullets}$
$\bf{M= 5\times 10^{-3}kg}$
$\bf{V= 1200\:{ms}^{-1}}$

❒ To find the change in momentum for bullets , we need to remember the momentum p of a bullet is equal to product of mass and speed

‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎ $\large\bf{⟼p_{1}= mv}$

❒ This means , that change in momentum for one bullet will be equal to

‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎ $\large\bf{⟼\triangle P_{1} = mv_{f} - mv_{i}}$

$\large\bf{where\:v_{f}=0}$

Total change in momentum for the bullet in 10 sec is equal to product of change in momentum for one bullet and number of bullets hit the wall in 10 sec

‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎ $\large\bf{⟼\triangle P_{10s} = N\triangle P_{i}}$

Change in momentum given is the change of momentum in 10 sec is 10 times less

‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎ $\large\bf{⟼\triangle p_{1s} = \frac{N\triangle p_{i}}{10}}$

‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎ $\large\bf{⟼\triangle p_{1s}=\frac{200.(mv_{f}-mv_{i}}{10}}$

$\large\bf{as\:said,v_{f}=0}$

‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎ $\large\bf{⟼\triangle p_{1s}=\frac{-200.mv_{i}}{10}}$

‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎ $\large\bf{⟼\triangle p_{1s}=\frac{200.5\times 10^{-3}kg.1200ms^{-1}}{10}}$

‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎ $\large\bf{⟼\triangle p_{1s}=-1200\:Kgms^{-1}}$

__________________________________________

<h3>b) to find average force F on the wall we must remember that in general case force us the change of momentum in time :</h3>

‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎ $\large\bf{⟼F =\frac{\triangle P}{\triangle t}}$

Total change of momentum of bullets in 10 sec

‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎ $\large\bf{⟼\triangle p =N\triangle p_{i} }$

‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎ $\large\bf{⟼\triangle p= N(mv_{f}-mv_{i})}$

‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎ $\large\bf{⟼\triangle p= -N mv_{i}}$

‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎ $\large\bf{⟼\triangle p= -200.5\times 10^{-3}.1200ms^{-1}}$

‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎ ‎ $\large\bf{⟼\triangle p= -1200kgms^{-1}}$

❒ We can find total force exerted in the wall in 10sec by dividing the momentum of bullet with 10 sec
