A 10 kg gun recoils with a speed of 0.1 m/s after it fires a 0.001 kg bullet. What is the speed of the bullet?

As we know that here gun + bullet system is isolated from all other external force system

so here the momentum of system is always conserved

so we will say

m_1v_{1i} + m_2v_{2i} = m_1v_{1f} + m_2v_{2f}

here we know that

v_{1i} = v_{2i} = 0

m_1 = 10 kg

m_2 = 0.001kg

v_{1f} = 0.1 m/s

now we will have

0 + 0 = 10(0.1) + 0.001v_{2f}

by solving above equation we will have

v_{2f} = 1000 m/s

1. What is the potential energy of a 4-kilogram potted plant that is on a 1 meter-high plant
Yuri [45]

39.2 J

Explanation:

Step 1:

To find the potential energy the following formula is used.

Potential Energy = m × g × h

Where,

m = Mass

g = Acceleration due to gravity

h =  Height

Step 2:

Here m = 4 kg, g = 9.8 m/s², h = 1 m

Potential Energy = ( 4 × 9.8 × 1)

                             = 39.2 J

which process was found after wegeners time, helped scientists find out how the continents actually move.
Genrish500 [490]
I don't quite know what you're asking so I'll just go on a rant :) Wegener created and supported the continental drift theory, which stated that all of the continents once formed a super continent called Pangea. No one at the time believed in the theory though so he spent the rest of his life trying to find evidence to prove it. However, after he died scientists began to find information that supported his theory. When scientists began to study Earth's surface and the layers below, the theory of the tectonic plates was formed. This theory stated that Earth's crust, the lithosphere, was divided into twelve moving plates. This theory did in fact prove that Wegener's theory was correct. Another theory that proved Wegener's theory to be true was the process of Sea Floor Spreading. This theory stated that at divergent plate boundaries, new ocean floor was being created and the old was being pushed away from the boundary, the old sea floor would then be pushed to deep sea trenches created by convergent plate boundaries and essentially recycled back into the Earth. I hope this helped, sorry it is so long :)

an airplane is flying through a thundercloud at a height of 2000m (this is very dangerous thing to do because of updrafts, turbu
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer

In this question we have given,

Height of plane, h1=2000m

Height at which charge concentration is 40C, h2=3000m

Height at which charge concentration is -40C, h3=1000m

charge concentaration, q1=40C

charge concentaration, q2=-40C

let the charge concentrations at height h2 and h3 as point charges

Now we will first find the electric feild on plane due to positive charge q1=40

E1= k*q1/(h1-h2)..............(1)

Here k=8.98755*10^9N.m^2/C^2

q1=40C

put values of k, q1 , h1 and h2 in equation 1


[tex]E1=(8.98755*10^9)*(40)/(2000-3000)^2\\

E1=[tex]E= 359502+359502\\E=719004 V/mV/m[/tex]

similarly electric feild due to negative charge q2=-40

[tex]E2=(8.98755*10^9)*(-40)/(2000-1000)^2\\

E2=359502V/m

Total electric feild E at the aircraft is given as

E= E1+ E2\\...............(2)

Put values of  E1 and E2 in equation2

\\E=359502+359502\\E= 719004V/m\\

therefore s Total electric feild E at the aircraft is E= 719004V/m

Determine the rate at which the electric field changes between the round plates of a capacitor, 8.0 cm in diameter, if the plate
Daniel [21]

Solution:

The relation between the potential difference and the electric field between the plates of the parallel plate capacitor is given by :

$E=\frac{V}{D}$

Differentiating on both the sides with respect to time, we get

$\frac{dE}{dt}=\frac{1}{D}\frac{dV}{dt}$

Therefore, the rate of the electric field changes between the plates of the parallel plate capacitor is given by :

$\frac{dE}{dt}=\frac{1}{D}\frac{dV}{dt}$

      $=\frac{1}{1.4 \times 10^{-3}} \times 110$

      $=7.85 \times 10^4$  V/m-s
