Answer:

Mass of shot (m) = 4 kg

Explanation:

Given:

Velocity (v) = 15 m/s

Mechanical kinetic energy (K.E) = 450 J

Find:

Mass of shot (m) = ?

Computation:

Mechanical kinetic energy (K.E) = 1/2mv²

Mechanical kinetic energy (K.E) = [1/2](m)(15)²

450 = [1/2](m)(15)²

900 = 225 m

Mass of shot (m) = 4 kg

It takes a slug 20 minutes to travel from the grass to the trash can , a trip of 15 meters. How far could the slug travel in 60
inn [45]

Answer:

45 meters

Explanation:

20 min = 15 meters

So if 20 x 3 = 60

you have to do 3 x 15 !

- which equals to 45 <3

Two charges of magnitude 5nC and -2nC are placed at points (2cm,0,0) and
scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

20 cm

Explanation:

Te electric potential enery U = kq₁q₂/r  were q₁ = 5 nC = 5 × 10⁻⁹ C and q₂ = -2 nC = -2 × 10⁻⁹ C and r = √(x - 2)² + (0 - 0)² +(0 - 0)² = x - 2. U =  -0.5 µJ = -0.5 × 10⁻⁶ J, k = 9 × 10⁹ Nm²/C².

So r = kq₁q₂/U

x - 2 = kq₁q₂/U

x = 0.02 + kq₁q₂/U m

x = 0.02 + 9 × 10⁹ Nm²/C² × 5 × 10⁻⁹ C × -2 × 10⁻⁹ C/-0.5 × 10⁻⁶ J

x = 0.02 - 90 × 10⁻⁹ Nm²/-0.5 × 10⁻⁶ J

x = 0.02 + 0.18 = 0.2 m = 20 cm

A wave is propagating from left to right in a medium. The particles in the medium are also vibrating from left to right. What ki
Anna71 [15]
Based on the direction of propagation compared to direction of vibration, waves are classified into:
1- Transverse waves: The direction of propagation of the wave is perpendicular to the direction of vibration of the medium particles.
2- Longitudinal waves: The direction of propagation of the wave is the same as the direction of vibration of the medium particles.

For the question we have here, since the direction of the wave is the same as the direction of vibration of particles, therefore, this wave is a longitudinal wave

Now suppose the initial velocity of the train is 4 m/s and the hill is 4 meters tall. If the train has a mass of 30000 kg, what
hoa [83]

Answer:

<h2>187,500N/m</h2>

Explanation:

From the question, the kinectic energy of the train will be equal to the energy stored in the spring.

Kinetic energy = 1/2 mv² and energy stored in a spring E = 1/2 ke².

Equating both we will have;

1/2 mv² = 1/2ke²

mv² = ke²

m is the mass of the train

v is the velocity of then train

k is the spring constant

e is the extension caused by the spring.

Given m = 30000kg, v = 4 m/s, e = 4 - 2.4 = 1.6m

Substituting this values into the formula will give;

30000*4² =  k*1.6²

k = \frac{30,000*16}{1.6^2}\\ \\k = \frac{480,000}{2.56}\\ \\k = 187,500Nm^{-1}

The value of the spring constant is 187,500N/m
