Answer:

The kinetic energy of the bullet is approximately 10688 Joules, or about 10.7kJ.

Explanation:

Use the kinetic energy formula:

$E_k=\frac{1}{2}mv^2= \frac{1}{2}9.5\cdot10^{-3}kg\cdot 1.5^2\cdot 10^6 \frac{m^2}{s^2}\approx 10688J$

The kinetic energy of the bullet is approximately 10688 Joules, or about 10.7kJ.

<span>The egg doesn't break when it hits the sheet because the impact time is longer. Momentum means the egg is slowed rather than coming to an abrubt halt. The softer the object that the egg hits, the longer the time it takes to break. A sheet is so soft that the force is never high enough for the egg to break.</span>

Given parameters:

Mass of the body = 200g

Force on the body = 10N

Unknown parameters:

Acceleration produced by the force = ?

To solve this problem we must first define force in terms of mass and acceleration. This is possible due to the Newton's first law of motion.

Force = mass x acceleration

Here the unknown is acceleration and we can easily solve for it.

But we must take the mass to kilogram in order for it to cancel out.

1000g = 1 kg

200g = x kg = $\frac{200}{1000}$ = 0.2kg

Now input the parameters and solve;

10 = 0.2 x acceleration

Acceleration = $\frac{10}{0.2}$ = 50m/s²

The acceleration produced by the body is 50m/s²
