A 9 g lead bullet leaves the rifle at a temperature of 110°C and hits a steel plate. If the bullet melts on impact, what is the minimum speed it must have?
given
m = 9 g = 9*10^-3 kg
we know, specific heat of lead, C = 128 J/(kg C)
latent of melting of lead, L = 23*10^3 J/kg
we know, melting point of leat, T = 327.5 C
heat required to melt the lead bullet, Q = m*C*(327.5 - 110) + m*L
= 9*10^-3*128*(327.5 - 110) + 9*10^-3*23*10^3
= 457.6 J
so, reuired kinetic energy of the bullet, KE = 457.6 J
use, (1/2)*m*v^2 = KE
==> v = sqrt(2*KE/m)
= sqrt(2*457.6/(9*10^-3))
= 319 m/s <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<---------------------Answer

A 30.0-g lead bullet leaves a rifle at a temperature of 94.0 degrees celsius and hits a steel plate. If the buller melts, what is the minimun speed it must have? _______m/s
A 50.0-gram lead bullet hits a steel plate, both initially at 25 °C. The bullet melts and splatters on impact. Assuming that the bullet receives 88% of its kinetic energy as heat energy, at what minimum speed must it be traveling to melt on impact? (The melting temperature of Lead is 327°C)
A 90.0-gram lead bullet hits a steel plate, both initially at 29 °C. The bullet melts and splatters on impact. Assuming that the bullet receives 76% of its kinetic energy as heat energy, at what minimum speed must it be traveling to melt on impact? (The melting temperature of Lead is 327°C)
A 90.0-gram lead bullet hits a steel plate, both initially at 24 °C. The bullet melts and splatters on impact. Assuming that the bullet receives 74% of its kinetic energy as heat energy, at what minimum speed must it be traveling to melt on impact? (The melting temperature of Lead is 327°C) _____ m/s
. A rifle that weights 1.5 kg fires a 6 g bullet. The bullet leaves the rifle traveling at 700 m/s. What is the recoil speed of the rifle?
A 4.0-g bullet leaves the muzzle of a rifle with a speed of 328 m/s. What force (assumed constant) is exerted on the bullet while it is traveling down the 0.75-m-long barrel of the rifle?

A 12g bullet is fired from a 3.09 kg rifle. After the bullet leaves the rifle it moves at a speed of 308 m/s. What is the magnitude of the impulse imparted on the rifle?
If a bullet leaves the muzzle of a rifle with a speed of 600m/s, and the barrel ofthe rifle is 0.9m long, what is the acceleration of the bullet while in the barrel?
When a bullet leaves a rifle it has a lot of kinetic energy, most of which gets lost as heat. Imagine that a 9.8kg lead bullet is fired into a ort upon which the actual target was sitting . The bullets initial speed is 760 m/s, and as it comes to rest half of its kinetic energy goes into heating the bullet. How much does the bullets temperature increase
A rifle fires a bullet. When the bullet leaves the barrel, it has a speed of 125 m/s. If the barrel is 45 cm long, what is the average acceleration of the bullet?
