Robin fired a bullet of mass 100 gm from a gun of mass 5 kg. The bullet leaves the gun with a speed of 400 m/s. After penetrating 4 cm of a plank of 10 cm, the bullet loses one third of its initial velocity.
a. Calculate the backward velocity of the gun?
b. Can the bullet penetrate the plank of the wood completely? Explain mathematically.

please help

Answers

Answer 1

(a) The recoil or backward velocity of the gun is 8 m/s.

(b) The bullet cannot penetrate the plank of the wood completely.

The given parameters include;

mass of the bullet, m₁ = 100 g = 0.1 kgmass of the gun, m₂ = 5 kginitial velocity of the bullet, u₁ = 400 m/sthickness of the plank, x = 10 cm

(a) The backward or recoil velocity of the gun is calculated by applying the principle of conservation of linear momentum.

let the backward or recoil  velocity of the gun = u₂

m₁u₁  + m₂u₂ = 0

m₂u₂ = -m₁u₁

[tex]u_2 = -\frac{m_1u_1}{m_2} \\\\u_2 = - \frac{0.1 \times 400}{5} \\\\u_2 = -8 \ m/s[/tex]

Thus, the recoil or backward velocity of the gun is 8 m/s.

(b) determine if the bullet can penetrate the plank of the wood completely

the bullet traveled 4 cm and lost ¹/₃ of u₁the remaining distance to completely penetrate the plank = 6 cmthe final velocity of the bullet at 4 cm, v = 400 - ¹/₃ x 400 m/s  = 266.67 m/s

the acceleration of the bullet is calculated as;

v² = u₁² + 2as

2as = v² - u²

[tex]a = \frac{v^2 -u_1^2}{2s} \\\\a = \frac{(266.67)^2 -(400)^2}{2\times 0.04} = -1.111 \times 10^6 \ m/s^2[/tex]

Finally, determine the distance traveled by the bullet when it comes to a complete stop, that is the final velocity = 0

[tex]v_f^2 = v^2 + 2ad\\\\2ad = v_f^2 - v^2\\\\d = \frac{v_f^2 - v^2}{2a} \\\\d = \frac{(0) - (266.67)^2}{2(-1.111\times 10^6)} \\\\d = 0.032 \ m[/tex]

d = 3.2 cm

The total distance traveled by the bullet inside the plank = 4 cm + 3.2 cm = 7.2 cm

Therefore, the bullet cannot penetrate the plank completely.

Which wave has the smallest amplitude?

Answers

Answer:

C. C

Explanation:

A wave can be defined as a disturbance in a medium that progressively transports energy from a source location to another location without the transportation of matter.

In Science, there are two (2) types of wave and these include;

I. Electromagnetic waves: it doesn't require a medium for its propagation and as such can travel through an empty space or vacuum. An example of an electromagnetic wave is light.

II. Mechanical waves: it requires a medium for its propagation and as such can't travel through an empty space or vacuum. An example of a mechanical wave is sound.

A crest can be defined as the highest (vertically) point on a waveform.

On a related note, a trough is the lowest (vertically) on a waveform.

An amplitude can be defined as a waveform that's measured from the center line (its origin or equilibrium position) to the bottom of a trough or top of a crest. Thus, the vertical axis (y-axis) is the amplitude of a waveform i.e it's measured vertically.

In this scenario, waveform C which is represented by a blue curvy line has the smallest amplitude in comparison with the other waveforms because it has the minimum height when measured from the origin.

In contrast, waveform A represented by a purple line has the highest amplitude because it has the maximum height when measured from the origin.

Mathematically, the amplitude of a wave is given by the formula;

x = Asin(ωt + ϕ)

Where;

x is displacement of the wave measured in meters.A is the amplitude.ω is the angular frequency measured in rad/s.t is the time period measured in seconds.ϕ is the phase angle.

Answer:

The gravitational force acting on various masses is measured on different planets. Measured values for the forces acting on the corresponding masses are shown in the data table. Analyze the data and develop a method for comparing the gravitational field strengths on the different planets. Use your method to compare the gravitational field strengths, and report your conclusions.

Answers

we Know that gravitational field strength(g) at a point on a planet is equal to gravitational force exerted per unit mass placed at that point.
It Means,
g=F/m
Here,
g=gravitational field strength
F=Gravitational force
m=Mass
Case A
planet force =10 and mass= .5
g1=F/m
g1=10/.5
=100/5
g1=20m/s
case B
F=30 and m=2
therefore g2=30/2
g2=15m/s^2
case C
F=45 and m=3
g3=45/3
=15m/s^2
case D
g4=60/6
g4=10m/s^2
from above results it is clear that the gravitational field strength of planet D is minimum which is 10m/s^2 and gravitational field strength of planet A is maximum which is 20m/s^2

A convex mirror of radius of curvature 1.6 m has an object placed at a distance of 1.0 m from it. Find the position of image and the magnification.​

Answers

Answer:

The image is formed at 0.44 m in front of the mirror

magnification (M) = 0.44

Explanation:

Applying, mirror formular

1/f = (1/u)+(1/v).................... Equation 1

Where f = Focal length of the convex mirror, u = object distance, v = image distance.

Using the real is positive convection,

From the question,

Given: f = -1.6/2 = -0.8 m( The focal length of a convex mirror is vitual), u = 1.0 m

Substitute these values into equation 1

-1/0.8 = (1/v)+(1/1)

Solve for v

1/v = 1.25+1

1/v = 2.25

v = 1/2.25

v = 0.44 m

Hence the image is formed at 0.44 m in front of the mirror

Magnification (M) = v/u

m = 0.44/1

m = 0.44

A. 15 m/s^2
B. 25 m/s^2
C. 4 m/s^2
D. 100 m/s^2

Answers

Answer:

C.

Explanation:

Force = Mass * Acceleration

So 20 = 5* Acceleration

4 = Acceleration

The acceleration of the object is 4 m/s².

To find the acceleration, the given values are:

Force = 20 N

Mass = 5 kg

Define acceleration.

Definition:

     As it was given as the values of  Force and mass, here acceleration definition depends on the Newton's second law of motion.

Using the second law of motion, the force will be equal to the product of the mass and the acceleration.

As formula,

                               F = ma Newton

Here, to find acceleration,

                              a =f/ m

Substituting the values,

                              = 20 / 5

                            a = 4m/s².

So, the acceleration was 4 m/s². The Option C is the correct answer.

A basketball is shot by a player at a height of 2.0m. The initial angle was 53° above the horizontal. At the highest point, the ball was travelling 6 m/s. If he scored (the ball went through the rim that is 3.00m above the ground), what was the player's horizontal distance from the basket?

Answers

At the ball's highest point, it has no vertical velocity, so the 6 m/s is purely horizontal. A projectile's horizontal velocity does not change, which means the ball was initially thrown with speed v such that

v cos(53°) = 6 m/s   ==>   v = (6 m/s) sec(53°) ≈ 9.97 m/s

The player shoots the ball from a height of 2.0 m, so that the ball's horizontal and vertical positions, respectively x and y, at time t are

x = (9.97 m/s) cos(53°) t = (6 m/s) t

y = 2.0 m + (9.97 m/s) sin(53°) t - 1/2 gt ²

Find the times t for which the ball reaches a height of 3.00 m:

3.00 m = 2.0 m + (9.97 m/s) sin(53°) t - 1/2 gt ²

==>   t ≈ 0.137 s   or   t ≈ 1.49 s

The second time is the one we care about, because it's the one for which the ball would be falling into the basket.

Now find the distance x traveled by the ball after this time:

x = (6 m/s) (1.49 s) ≈ 8.93 m

Answers

Answer:

kinetic friction coefficient = 0.15

(a) acceleration, a = 2.53 m/s^2

According to the newton's second law

Net force = mass x acceleration

F - friction force = m a

150 - 0.15 x m g = m a

150 = m (2.53 + 0.15 x 9.8)

m = 37.5 kg

Light of wavelength 530.00 nm is incident normally on a diffraction grating, and the first‑order maximum is observed to be 33.0∘ from the normal. How many slits per millimeter are marked on the grating?

Answers

Answer:

1028 slits/mm

Explanation:

We are given that

Wavelength of light, [tex]\lambda=530nm=530\times 10^{-9} m[/tex]

1nm=[tex]10^{-9} m[/tex]

[tex]\theta=33^{\circ}[/tex]

n=1

We have to find the number of slits per mm are marked on the grating.

We know that

[tex]dsin\theta=n\lambda[/tex]

Using the formula

[tex]dsin33^{\circ}=1\times 530\times 10^{-9}[/tex]

[tex]d=\frac{530\times 10^{-9}}{sin33^{\circ}}[/tex]

[tex]d=9.731\times 10^{-7} m[/tex]

1m=[tex]10^{3}mm[/tex]

[tex]d=9.731\times 10^{-7}\times 10^3[/tex]mm

[tex]d=0.0009731mm[/tex]

Number of slits=[tex]\frac{1}{d}[/tex]

Number of slits=[tex]\frac{1}{0.0009731}[/tex]/mm

Number of slits=1028/mm

Hence, 1028 slits/mm are marked on the grating.

Answer:

1027.6 lines per mm.

Explanation:

wavelength = 530 nm
