An observer stands 24.7 m behind a marksman practicing at a rifle range. The marksman fires the rifle horizontally, the speed of
GaryK [48]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

     Velocity of bullet, c_{p} = 814.8 m/s

    Observer distance from marksman, d = 24.7 m

Let us assume that time necessary for report of rifle to reach the observer is t and will be calculated as follows.

               t = \frac{24.7}{343}      (velocity in air = 343 m/s)

                 = 0.072 sec

Now, before the observer hears the report the distance traveled by the bullet is as follows.

               d_{b} = c_{b} \times t

                          = 814.8 \times 0.072

                          = 58.66

                          = 59 (approx)

Thus, we can conclude that each bullet will travel a distance of 59 m.

Two 5.0 kilogram objects have different gravitational potential energies. What property of the objects must differ?
ipn [44]

Answer:

Height.

Explanation:

Potential energy can be defined as an energy possessed by an object or body due to its position.

Mathematically, potential energy is given by the formula;

P.E = mgh

Where,

P.E represents potential energy measured in Joules.

m represents the mass of an object.

g represents acceleration due to gravity measured in meters per seconds square.

h represents the height measured in meters.

Hence, the property of the object (having a mass of 5 kilograms) which must differ to have different gravitational potential energies is the height from which they are falling from.

The object having the higher height would have a greater gravitational potential energy than the lower object.

When catching a baseball, the ball applies a force of 39.6 N to a  catcher's glove.  If the work done on the catchers glove is 4
cricket20 [7]

Answer:

d = 1.19 m

Explanation:

Given that,

The force applied by the ball, F = 39.6 N

The work done on the catchers glove is 47.5 J

We need to find the distance traveled by the ball. We know that,

Work done, W = Fd

Where

d is the distance traveled

d=\dfrac{W}{F}\\\\d=\dfrac{47.5 }{39.6 }\\\\d=1.19\ m

So, it will cover 1.19 m.
