Answer:

C. a few days

Explanation:

The evidence that we will have to investigate is the gunshot residue on the body of the suspect. When a person fires a gun there will be a deposition of material from the components of the chemicals present in the gun. This deposit is called gunshot residue and consists of particles of the propellant or explosive primer.

Experimentation has shown that the period of time that is person will test possible for gunshot residue is 5.27 days.

The bird is held in level flight due to the force exerted on it by the air as the bird beats its wings. What is the maximum valu
Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

 maximumforce is F = mg

Explanation:

For this case we must use Newton's second law,

     Σ F = m a

bold indicate vectors, so we will write it in its components x and y

 X axis

       Fₓ = maₓ

 Axis y

      Fy - W = m aa_{y}

Now let's examine our case, with indicate that the bird is level, the force of the wings can have a measured angle with respect to the x axis, where the vertical component is responsible for the lift, let's use trigonometry to find the components

      Cos θ = Fₓ / F

      Fₓ = F cos θ

      sin θ = Fy / F

      Fy = F sin θ

Let's replace and calculate

      F sin θ -w = m a

 

As the bird indicates that leveling at the same height, so the vertical acceleration is zero (ay = 0)

       F sin θ = w = mg

The maximum value of this equation occurs when the sin=1, in this case

      F = mg

Montano1993 [528]

Answer:

B or D but im pretty sure it is D

Explanation:

When molecules are left in the sun, it heats up. When molecules heat up, the begin to vibrate rapidly. The sun is not constant as it could get blocked by clouds, so it would, at times, slow down the movement of the molecules. The answer is most likely D.

A 13,000-N vehicle is to be lifted by a 25-cm diameter hydraulic piston. What force needs to be applied to a 5.0 cm diameter pis
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

We shall apply Pascal's Law in fluid mechanics

According to it , pressure is transmitted in liquid from one point to another without any change .

25 cm diameter = 12.5 x 10⁻² m radius

Area = 3.14 x (12.5 x 10⁻²)²

= 490.625 x 10⁻⁴ m²

Pressure by vehicle

Force / area

13000 / 490.625 x 10⁻⁴

= 26.497 x 10⁴ Pa

5 cm diameter = 2.5 x 10⁻² radius

area = 3.14 x (2.5 x 10⁻²)²

= 19.625 x 10⁻⁴ m²

If we assume required force F on this area

Pressure = F / 19.625 x 10⁻⁴ Pa

According to Pascal Law

F / 19.625 x 10⁻⁴  = 26.497 x 10⁴

F = 19.625 x 26.497

= 520 N

A 0.0140 kg bullet traveling at 205 m/s east hits a motionless 1.80 kg block and bounces off it, retracing its original path wit
makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

Final velocity of the block = 2.40 m/s east.

Explanation:

Here momentum is conserved.

Initial momentum = Final momentum

Mass of bullet = 0.0140 kg

Consider east as positive.

Initial velocity of bullet = 205 m/s

Mass of Block = 1.8 kg

Initial velocity of block = 0 m/s

Initial momentum = 0.014 x 205 + 1.8 x 0 = 2.87 kg m/s

Final velocity of bullet = -103 m/s

We need to find final velocity of the block( u )

Final momentum = 0.014 x -103+ 1.8 x u = -1.442 + 1.8 u

We have

            2.87 = -1.442 + 1.8 u

               u = 2.40 m/s

Final velocity of the block = 2.40 m/s east.

Hitman42 [59]
Ok so it would be late and the relative velocity would be 190 m/s because 200 m/s - 10 m/s is 190 m/s. Hope this helps.
