Kinetic energy = 1/2 mv2
velocity of both bullet and mass is same.
therefore the ratio of kinetic energies is same as ration of masses
percentage ratio = mass of bullet/(mass of gun + mass of bullet) x 100%
=5/120 x 100 = 4.17%
A miniature, spring-loaded, radio-controlled gun is mounted on an air puck. The...continues
A hockey puck of mass m = 0.170 kg is loaded into a spring gun with spring constant k = 306 N/m. The spring is compressed by a distance d = 0.100 m and then released, launching the puck onto a horizontal and frictionless surface of ice with speed v in the positive x-direction. This puck then collides with another puck of the same mass which is at rest at the origin. After the collision the two pucks move away...
answers pls 1. Determine whether the statements below are true or false: a. [4 points) Two carts move in the same direction along a frictionless track, each acted upon by the same constant impulse. If Cart 1 has the twice the mass of Cart 2, then Cart 2 will have the greater change in linear momentum. b. [4 points) Any force component that causes a centripetal acceleration cannot change the translational kinetic energy of the object. c. [4 points) A...
10. Write a one-page summary of the attached paper? INTRODUCTION Many problems can develop in activated sludge operation that adversely affect effluent quality with origins in the engineering, hydraulic and microbiological components of the process. The real "heart" of the activated sludge system is the development and maintenance of a mixed microbial culture (activated sludge) that treats wastewater and which can be managed. One definition of a wastewater treatment plant operator is a "bug farmer", one who controls the aeration...
