Someone fires a 0.04 kg bullet at a block of wood that has a mass of 0.5 kg. (The block of wood is sitting on a frictionless sur

d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

The speed of bullet and wooden bock coupled together, V = 22.22 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the bullet, m = 0.04 Kg

Mass of the wooden block, M = 0.5 Kg

The initial velocity of the bullet, u = 300 m/s

The initial velocity of the wooden block, U = 0 m/s

The final velocity of the bullet and wooden bock coupled together, V = 0 m/s

According to the conservation of linear momentum, the total momentum of the body after impact is equal to the total momentum before impact.

Therefore,

mV + MV = mu + MU

V(m+M) = mu

V = mu/(m+M)

Substituting the values in the above equation,

V = 0.04 Kg x 300 m/s / (0.04 Kg+ 0.5 Kg)

= 22.22 m/s

Hence, the speed of bullet and wooden bock coupled together, V = 22.22 m/s

A woman is straining to lift a large crate, without success because it is too heavy. We denote the forces on the crate as follow

Ymorist [56]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Force P is acting upward

C is vertical contact Force

W is the weight of the crate

As P is unable to move the Block therefore Normal reaction keeps on acting on block

thus we can say that

P-W+C=0

P=W-C

A parallel-plate capacitor is constructed of two horizontal 12.0-cm-diameter circular plates. A 1.0 g plastic bead, with a charg

marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

Please find the answer in the explanation

Explanation:

Given that A 1.0 g plastic bead, with a charge of -6.0 nC, is suspended between the two plates by the force of the electric field between them.

Since it is suspended, it must have been repelled by the bottom negative plate and trying to be attracted to the top plate.

We can therefore conclude that the upper plate, is positively charged

B.) The charge on the positive plate of parallel-plate capacitor is constructed of two horizontal 12.0-cm-diameter circular plates must be less than 6.0 nC

The force F required to compress a spring a distance x is given by F 2 F0 5 kx where k is the spring constant and F0 is the prel

IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

a)W=8.333lbf.ft

b)W=0.0107 Btu.

Explanation:

<u>Complete question</u>

The force F required to compress a spring a distance x is given by F– F0 = kx where k is the spring constant and F0 is the preload. Determine the work required to compress a spring whose spring constant is k= 200 lbf/in a distance of one inch starting from its free length where F0 = 0 lbf. Express your answer in both lbf-ft and Btu.

Solution

Preload = F₀=0 lbf

Spring constant k= 200 lbf/in

Initial length of spring x₁=0

Final length of spring x₂= 1 in

At any point, the force during deflection of a spring is given by;

F= F₀× kx where F₀ initial force, k is spring constant and x is the deflection from original point of the spring.

$W=\int\limits^2_1 {} \, Fds \\\\\\W=\int\limits^2_1( {F_0+kx} \,) dx \\\\\\W=\int\limits^a_b {kx} \, dx ; F_0=0\\\\\\W=k\int\limits^2_1 {x} \, dx \\\\\\W=k*\frac{1}{2} (x_2^{2}-x_1^{2} )\\\\\\W=200*\frac{1}{2} (1^2-0)\\\\\\W=100.lbf.in\\\\$

Change to lbf.ft by dividing the value by 12 because 1ft=12 in

100/12 = 8.333 lbf.ft

work required to compress the spring, W=8.333lbf.ft

The work required to compress the spring in Btu will be;

1 Btu= 778 lbf.ft

?= 8.333 lbf.ft----------------cross multiply

(8.333*1)/ 778 =0.0107 Btu.

A 900-kg car traveling east at 15.0 m/s collides with a 750-kg car traveling north at 20.0 m/s. The cars stick together. Assume

dalvyx [7]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the car 1, $m_1=900\ kg$

Initial speed of car 1, $u_1=15i\ m/s$ (east)

Mass of the car 2, $m_2=750\ kg$

Initial speed of car 2, $u_1=20j\ m/s$ (north)

(b) As the cars stick together. It is a case of inelastic collision. Let V is the common speed after the collision. Using the conservation of momentum as :

$m_1u_1+m_2u_2=(m_1+m_2)V$

$900\times 15i +750\times 20j=(900+750)V$

$13500i+15000j=1650V$

$V=(8.18i+9.09j)\ m/s$

The magnitude of speed,

$|V|=\sqrt{8.18^2+9.09^2}$

V = 12.22 m/s

(b) Let $\theta$ is the direction the wreckage move just after the collision. It is given by :

$tan\theta=\dfrac{v_y}{v_x}$

$tan\theta=\dfrac{9.09}{8.18}$

$\theta=48.01^{\circ}$

Hence, this is the required solution.
