Answer:395.6 m/s

Explanation:

Given

mass of bullet m=5 gm

mass of wood block M=1 kg

Length of string L=2 m

Center of mass rises to an height of 0.38 cm

initial velocity of bullet u=450 m/s

let v_1 and v_2 be the velocity of bullet and block after collision

Conserving momentum

mu=mv_1+Mv_2 -------------1

Now after the collision block rises to an height of 0.38 cm

Conserving Energy for block

kinetic energy of block at bottom=Gain in Potential Energy

\frac{Mv_2^2}{2}=Mgh_{cm}

v_2=\sqrt{2gh_{cm}}

v_2=\sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 0.38}

v_2=0.272 m/s

substitute the value of v_2 in equation 1

5\times 450=5\times v_1+1000\times 0.272

v_1=395.6 m/s

When photons with a wavelength of 310. nm strike a magnesium plate, the maximum velocity of the ejected electrons is 3.45 105 m/
Kisachek [45]
This problem can be solved based on the rule of energy conservation, as the energy of the photon covers both the energy needed to overcome the binding energy as well as the energy of ejection.

The rule can be written as follows:
energy of photon = binding energy + kinetic energy of ejectection
(hc) / lambda = E + 0.5 x m x v^2 where:
h is plank's constant = 6.63 x 10^-34 m^2 kg / s
c is the speed of light = 3 x 10^8 m/sec
lambda is the wavelength = 310 nm
E is the required binding energy
m is the mass of photon = 9.11 x 10^-31 kg
v is the velocity = 3.45 x 10^5 m/s

So, as you can see, all the parameters in the equation are given except for E. Substitute to get the required E as follows:
(6.63x10^-34x3x10^8)/(310x10^-9) = E + 0.5(9.11 x 10^-31)(3.45x10^5)^2
E = 6.41 x 10^-16 joule

To get the E in ev, just divide the value in joules by 1.6 x 10^-19
E = 4.009 ev

Rudiy27

Answer:

a) xf = 5.1 m

b) u = 0.304

c) x = 10.3 m

Explanation:

we will use the following formula:

u = 0.1 + A*x

Si x = 12.5 m, u = 0.6

Clearing A:

A = 0.5/12.5 = 0.04 m^-1

a) we have to:

W = Ekf - Eki

where Ekf = final kinetic energy

Eki = initial kinetic energy

9.8*(0.1xf + ((0.04*xf^2)/(2))) = (4.5^2)/(2)

Clearing xf, we have:

xf = 5.1 m

b) Replacing values for u:

u = 0.1 + (0.04*5.1) = 0.304

c) Wf = Ekf - Eki

-u*m*x*g = 0 - (m*v^2)/2

Clearing x:

x = v^2/(2*u*g) = (4.5^2)/(2*0.1*9.8) = 10.3 m

Derive an expression for the acceleration of the car. Express your answer in terms of D and vt Determine the time at which the s
Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

V(car) = V(truck) at t = Dt/2

acceleration = v(car) = D/t^2

Explanation:

acceleration = v(car) = D/t^2

Since the average velocities must be the same, the car's final velocity must be twice the trunk velocity assuming the car start with zero velocity, since acceleration remain the same throughout the journey velocities at half-time point must be equal.

Karen is running forward at a speed of 9 m/s. She tosses her sweaty headband backward at a speed of 20 m/s. The speed of the hea
Komok [63]
Let Karen's forward speed be considered as positive.
Therefore, before the headband is tossed backward, the speed of the headband is
V = 9 m/s

The headband is tossed backward relative to Karen at a speed of 20 m/s. Therefore the speed of the headband relative to Karen is
U = -20 m/s

The absolute speed of the headband, relative to a stationary observer is
V - U
= 9 + (-20)
= - 11 m/s

Answer:
The stationary observes the headband traveling (in the opposite direction to Karen) at a speed of 11 m/s backward.

Consider the vector b⃗ with magnitude 4.00 m at an angle 23.5∘ north of east. what is the x component bx of this vector? express
BlackZzzverrR [31]
Decomposing the vector b on the x-axis and the y-axis, we get a rectangle triangle where the two sides are bx (x-axis) and by (y-axis), and b is the hypothenuse.
The component in x, bx, is equal to the product between the hypothenuse and the cosine of the angle between b and the x-axis, which is 23.5 ^{\circ}:
b_x = b \cos (23^{\circ})=(4.00 m)(\cos (23^{\circ}))=3.68 m
