lana66690 [7]2 years ago

3 0

Answer:

8.8 kN

Explanation:

V = 2 m³, W = 40 kN, SG = 1.59

Bouyant force N = 1.59 * 1000 kg/m³ * 9.81 N/kg * 2 m³ = 31.2 kN

So the weight becomes 40 - 31.2 = 8.8 kN

A 6.00 g lead bullet traveling at420 m/s is stopped by a large

Westkost [7]

Answer:

The increase in temperature of the bullet is 351.1 kelvin

Explanation:

First, we should find the kinetic energy of the bullet is:

$K=\frac{mv^{2}}{2}=\frac{(6\times10^{-3}\,kg)(420\,\frac{m}{s})^{2}}{2}$

with m the mass and v the velocity.

$K=529.2 J$

Now we know that half of the kinetic energy of the bullet is transformed into internal energy, by second's law of thermodynamics that means heat (Q) to raise bullet temperature (T), so:

$Q=\frac{K}{2}= 264.6\,J$

To know what the increase in temperature is, we should use specific heat of lead:

$c=125.604 \frac{J}{kg\.K}$

The equation that relates specific heat, change in temperature and mass is:

$Q=cm\varDelta T$

solving for $\varDelta T$ :

$\varDelta T=\frac{Q}{cm}=\frac{264.6}{(125.604)(6\times10^{-3})}$

$\varDelta T= 351.10\, K$

Urgent!!!!!! 20 points!!!!!!<br> how are the speed, wavelength and frequency of a wave related

zheka24 [161]

Answer:

The higher the frequency, the shorter the wavelength. Because all light waves move through a vacuum at the same speed, the number of wave crests passing by a given point in one second depends on the wavelength. Speed shows how long it takes for wavelengths to travel.
