Answer:

The equation for momentum of a piece of matter.

In either case, the momentum would be less than a linebacker hitting you at full speed. The equation for momentum is written: p = mv where p stands for momentum. That is, mass times velocity equals momentum.

Sauron [17]

They have different accelerations because of their masses. According to Newton's Second Law, an objects acceleration is inversely proportional to its mass. Therefore the object with the larger mass, in this case the gun, will have a smaller acceleration. In the same way, the less massive object, being the bullet, will have a higher acceleration.

Hope this helps :)

A force of 2N will stretch a rubber band 0.02m. Assuming that Hooke's Law applies, answer the following: How far will a 1600N fo

denis-greek [22]

Hooke's Law states that the extension is directly proportional to the force applied so:
F/x = constant

F₁/x₁ = F₂/x₂
2 / 0.02 = 1600 / x₂
x₂ = 16 m

Elastic work = 1/2 Fx
= 1/2 * 1600 * 16
= 12.8 kJ

The magnitude of each force is 208 N the force on the right is applied at an angle 36° and the mass of the block is 17 kg the co

djyliett [7]

Answer:

11.06m/s²

Explanation:

According to Newtons second law of motion

$\sm F_x = ma_x\\F_m - F_f = ma_x\\mgsin \theta - \mu R mgcos \theta = ma_x\\$

Given

Mass m = 17kg

Fm = 208N

theta = 36 degrees

g = 9.8m/s²

a is the acceleration

Substitute

208 - 0.148(17)(9.8)cos 36 = 17a

208 - 24.6568cos36 = 17a

208 - 19.9478 = 17a

188.05 = 17a

a = 188.05/17

a = 11.06m/s²

Hence the the magnitude of the resulting acceleration is 11.06m/s²

Which statements describe nuclear reactions? Check all that apply.

Alexandra [31]

Explanation:

Nuclear reactions are the reactions in which nucleus of an atom changes either by splitting or joining with the nucleus of another atom.

There are two types of nuclear reactions.

Nuclear fission - In this process, large atomic nuclei splits into smaller nuclei.
Nuclear fusion - In this process, two small nuclei combine together to form a large nuclei.

Both nuclear fission and fusion processes involve nuclei of atoms.

For example, $^{0}n + ^{235}_{92}U \rightarrow ^{236}_{92}U \rightarrow ^{144}_{56}Ba + ^{89}_{36}Kr + 3n + 177 MeV$

Thus, we can conclude that statements which are true are as follows.

Nuclear reactions involve the nuclei of atoms.

The products of nuclear reactions are lighter than the reactants.
