A 5.5 kg rifle fires an 11 g bullet with a velocity of 1000 m/s. (a) What is the recoil velocity of the rifle? (b) If the shooter holds the rifle firmly against his shoulder, What will be the recoil velocity? Assume the mass of the shooter is 120 kg.
Please answer seriously (;´༎ຶٹ༎ຶ`)​

Answers

Answer 1

Given,

Mass of a rifle = 5.5 kg

Mass of a bullet = 11 g

Speed of a bullet = 1000 m/s

To find,

(a) The recoil velocity of the rifle.

(b) If the shooter holds the rifle firmly against his shoulder, What will be the recoil velocity.

Solution,

(a) Let v₁ is the recoil velocity of the rifle. We can use the conservation of momentum to find it. The momentum of the system will remains conserved.

[tex]m_1v_1=m_2v_2\\\\v_1=\dfrac{m_2v_2}{m_1}\\\\v_1=\dfrac{0.011\times 1000}{5.5}\\\\v_1=2\ m/s[/tex]

So, the recoil velocity of the rifle is 2 m/s and it is in opposite direction of he bullet.

(b) Let V is the recoil velocity if the shooter holds the rifle firmly against his shoulder. Again using the conservation of momentum.

[tex]V=\dfrac{0.011\times 1000}{120}\\\\v=0.091\ m/s[/tex]

Therefore, this is the required solution.

which of the following is not a way to measure a race car motion

a) it’s deceleration

b) it’s velocity

c) the car’s resistance

d) the car’s displacement

Answers

B. Velocity hope it works

The following that is not a way to measure a race car's motion is its velocity. The correct option is b.

What is motion?

Motion is a phenomenon that changes the position of an object with respect to time. The motion needs a force to change the position, and motion needs some energy that can be potential energy or a force.

Velocity is the speed of any object that is in motion in a particular direction. It tells the rate of change of motion of an object. It is a scalar quantity.

Motion is the result of force. Force can be measured by multiplying the mass by acceleration.  So the variables that would be needed to calculate a race car's motion will be acceleration and the mass of the car, and the resistances.

Thus, the correct option is b. it’s velocity.

How many protons, neutrons and electrons are there in a neutral Cesium atom?

55 protons, 78 neutrons, 55 electrons

69 protons, 100 neutrons, 69 electrons

37 protons, 37 neutrons, 45 electrons

43 protons, 65 neutrons, 43 electrons

Answers

Answer:

55 protons, 78 neutrons, 55 electrons

Explanation:

In a neutral Cesium atom we have 55 protons, 78 neutrons and 55 electrons. This can be found on the periodic table of elements.

Protons are the positively charged particles within an atom

Neutrons do not carry any charges.

Electrons are the negatively charged particles.

The amount of these subatomic particles can be obtained from the periodic table of element.

For a neutral atom, the number of protons and electrons are the same.

Since the atomic number is 55, it is also the number of protons in the atom.

A. Airplanes typically fly at an altitude of about 10,000 meters. At this altitude the atmospheric pressure is significantly less than it is at sea-level. Because of this, airplane cabins must be pressurized so that the people on board can continue to get enough oxygen. If a typical 747 has a volume of 28,000 m3 and is filled with air at 101.3 kPa on the ground, what is the new volume of air inside when the cabin is pressurized to 75 kPa once it is in flight? b. Twinkies are made up of 68% air. If you buy a Twinkie in the airport and take it with you on a plane ride, how would its size change during the flight?

Answers

Answer:

The new volume of the air inside when the cabin is pressurized to 75 kPa is 37818.[tex]\overline 6[/tex] m³

Explanation:

The given 747 airplane parameters are;

The volume of air in the airplane, V₁ = 28,000 m³

The pressure of the air on the ground, P₁ = 101.3 kPa

The pressure of the air once it is in flight, P₂ = 75 kPa

Let V₂ represent the new volume of the air inside when the cabin is pressurized to 75 kPa

Boyle's Law states that the pressure of a given mass of air is inversely proportional to its volume at constant temperature

Therefore, by Boyle's law, we have;

P ∝ 1/V and P₁·V₁ = P₂·V₂

Which gives;

V₂ = P₁·V₁/P₂

Substituting the known values, we get;

V₂ = 101.3 kPa × 28,000 m³/(75 kPa) = 37818.[tex]\overline 6[/tex] m³

The new volume of the air inside when the cabin is pressurized to 75 kPa = V₂ = 37818.[tex]\overline 6[/tex] m³.

A 1.0 kg ball is thrown into the air and initial velocity of 30 mi./s how high into the air did the ball travel

Answers

Answer:

45.9m

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of the ball  = 1kg

Initial velocity  = 30m/s

Unknown:

Height the ball will travel  = ?

Solution:

At the maximum height, the final velocity of the ball  will be 0;

  Using ;

   V²   = U²   - 2gh

V is the final velocity

U is the initial velocity

g is the acceleration due to gravity

h is the height

     0² = 30²   - (2 x 9.8 x h)

    0 = 900 - 19.6h

      h  = 45.9m

A solution with a molarity of 0.1850 contains 19.30 grams of BaCl2. What is the volume of the solution

Answers

Answer:

Volume in L = 0.50 L

Explanation:

Given data:

Molarity of solution = 0.1850 M

Mass of BaCl₂ = 19.30 g

Volume of solution = ?

Solution:

First of all we will calculate the number of moles of solute:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Molar mass of BaCl₂ = 208.23 g/mol

Number of moles = 19.30 g / 208.23 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.093 mol

Volume of solution:

Molarity = number of moles of solute / volume of solution in L

0.1850 M = 0.093 mol / Volume in L

Volume in L = 0.093 mol / 0.1850 M  (M= mol/L)

Volume in L = 0.50 L

how can balancing equations support the law of conservation

Answers

Answer:

detail is given below.

Explanation:

This law was given by French chemist  Antoine Lavoisier in 1789. According to this law mass of reactant and mass of product must be equal, because masses are not created or destroyed in a chemical reaction.

Law of conservation of mass:

According to the law of conservation mass, mass can neither be created nor destroyed in a chemical equation.

For example:

In given photosynthesis reaction:

6CO₂ + 6H₂O  → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂

The given equation is balanced chemical equation of photosynthesis. There are six carbon atoms, eighteen oxygen atoms and twelve hydrogen atoms on the both side of equation so this reaction followed the law of conservation of mass.

If equation is not balanced,

CO₂ + H₂O  → C₆H₁₂O₆ + O₂

It can not follow the law of conservation of mass because mass is not equal on both side of equation.

How can the conductivity of a salt solution be decreased?
A. Add more salt to increase the concentration.
B. Add more water to decrease the concentration.
C. Add more water to increase the concentration.
D. Add more salt to decrease the concentration.

Answers

Answer:

B. Add more water to decrease the concentration.

Explanation:

If we add more water to the solution, the concentration is decreased and like wise the conductivity of the solution.

Concentration is the amount of solute in a solution. Conductivity deals with the ability of a solution to allow the passage of current.

Concentration and conductivity are directly proportional to one another. The higher the concentration, the higher the conductivity and vice versa.

Adding more water increases the amount of solvent and the concentration reduces.
