A 23 g bullet traveling at 230 m/s penetrates a 2.0 kg block of wood and emerges cleanly at 170 m/s. If the block is stationary

on a surface with a coefficient of kinetic friction of 0.15 when hit, how far does it move after the bullet emerges?

Answer:

Explanation:

Conservation of momentum during the collision

0.023(230) + 2.0(0.0) = 0.023(170) + 2.0v

v = 0.69 m/s

The initial block kinetic energy will be converted to friction work

½mv² = Fd = μmgd

½(2.0)(0.69²) = 0.15(2.0)(9.8)d

d = 0.1619387... m

d = 16 cm

A key falls from a bridge that is 45 m above the water. the key falls straight down and lands in a model boat traveling at a con
erastova [34]

Let the key is free falling, therefore from equation of motion

h = ut +\frac{1}{2}gt^2..

Take initial velocity, u=0, so

h = 0\times t + \frac{1}{2}g t^2= \frac{1}{2}gt^2.

h = 0\times t + \frac{1}{2}g t^2= \frac{1}{2}gt^2 \\\ t =\sqrt{\frac{2h}{g} }

As velocity moves with constant velocity of 3.5 m/s, therefore we can use formula

d= v \times t

From above substituting t,

d = v \times \sqrt{\frac{2h}{g} }.

Now substituting all the given values and g = 9.8 m/s^2, we get

d = 3.5 \ m/s \times \sqrt{\frac{2 \times 45 m}{9.8 m/s^2} } = 10.60 m.

Thus, the distance the boat was from the point of impact when the key was released is 10.60 m.

A student drops a ball from the top of a 10-meter tall building. The ball leaves the thrower's hand with a zero speed. What is t
Sergio [31]

Answer:

14 m/s

Explanation:

u = 0, h = 10 m, g = 9.8 m/s^2

Use third equation of motion

v^2 = u^2 + 2 g h

Here, v be the velocity of ball as it just strikes with the ground

v^2 = 0 + 2 x 9.8 x 10

v^2 = 196

v = 14 m/s

One gallon of gasoline in an automobiles engine produces on average 9.50 kg of carbon dioxide, which is a greenhouse gas; that i
Musya8 [376]

The annual production of carbon dioxide is 124121.49×10^{6}[/tex] kg.

First we calculate the fuel consumed by each car in a year

Fuel consumed=6990/21.4=326.63 gallon

Now we calculate the amount of fuel consumed by 40 million cars in a year

Fuel consumed=326.63*40*10^6=13065.42 million gallon,

Now we can calculate the annual production of carbon dioxide in the USA

CO2 production rate=9.50*13065.42=124121.49*10^6 kg

Therefore the annual production of carbon dioxide in USA is 124121.49×10^{6}[/tex] kg

A moving object is in equilibrium. Which best describes the motion of the object if no forces change?
Alchen [17]
If the object is in equilibrium that means that the sum of the forces on it is zero and the net force is zero. If none of the forces changes then the object continues in constant uniform motion. That means constant speed in a straight line.
