Absolutely ! If you have two vectors with equal magnitudes and opposite
directions, then one of them is the negative of the other. Their correct
vector sum is zero, and that's exactly the magnitude of the resultant vector.
(Think of fifty football players pulling on each end of the rope in a tug-of-war.
Their forces are equal in magnitude but opposite in sign, and the flag that
hangs from the middle of the rope goes nowhere, because the resultant
force on it is zero.)
This gross, messy explanation is completely applicable when you're totaling up
the x-components or the y-components.
Answer: 6m
Explanation: 6 is more than 3 and their both being measured by m
Answer:
Explanation:
We shall apply law of conservation of momentum .
Momentum before collision = momentum after collision .
Momentum before collision = 400 kg m/s
Momentum after collision = 5 x v + 11 x 15
where v is velocity of A after the collision .
5 x v + 11 x 15 = 400
5 v = 400 - 165
5v = 235
v = 47 m /s .
Assuming that all the bullet’s energy heats the paraffin, its final temperature is 27.1 degree C. The correct option is D.
<h3>What is temperature?</h3>
Temperature is the degree of hotness and coldness of the material.
The energy of the bullet E = 1/2 mv²
E = 1/2 x 10 x 10⁻³ x (2000)²
E = 2 x 10⁴ J
This heat is used in heating the paraffin
E = m x c ΔT = m x c (Tfinal -Tinitial)
2 x 10⁴ J = 1 x 2.8 x 10³ x (Tfinal -20)
Tfinal = 27.1°C
Thus, the final temperature is 27.1 degree C. The correct option is D.
