A hunter on a frozen, essentially frictionless pond uses a rifle that shoots 4.20 g bullets at 965 m/s. The mass of the hunter (

including his gun) is 72.5 kg, and the hunter holds tight to the gun after firing it. Find the recoil velocity of the hunter if he fires the rifle (a) horizontally and (b) at 56.0∘ above the horizontal.

Several charges in the neighborhood of point P produce an electric potential of 6.0 kV (relative to zero at infinity) and an ele
ValentinkaMS [3465]

Answer:

0.018 J

Explanation:

The work required to bring the charge from infinity to the point P is equal to the change in its electric potential energy. This can be expressed as

W = q \Delta V

where

q=3.0 \mu C = 3.0 \cdot 10^{-6} C represents the charge's magnitude

and \Delta V = 6.0 kV = 6000 V signifies the potential difference between point P and infinity.

After substituting into the formula, we arrive at

W=(3.0\cdot 10^{-6}C)(6000 V)=0.018 J

If you wished to warm 100 kg of water by 15 degrees celsius for your bath, how much heat would be required? (give your answer in
kicyunya [3294]
To respond to the previous question:
<span>Q = heat quantity (kJ) </span>
<span>cp = specific heat (kJ/kg.K) = 4.187 kJ/kgK </span>
<span>m = weight (kg) </span>
<span>dT = temperature change between hot and cold water (K). Note: dt in °C is identical to dt in Kelvin </span>

<span>Q = 100kg * (4.187 kJ/kgK) * 15 K </span>
<span>Q = 6,280.5 KJ = 6,280,500 J = 1,501,075.5 cal</span>

A hiker walks 200m west and then walks 100m north. What is the magnitude and direction of her resulting displacement?
Maru [3345]

A hiker proceeds 200 m west and subsequently another 100 m north, resulting in a displacement of 223 m. The direction can be determined using the trigonometric function where sin(angle) = opposite/hypotenuse, yielding an angle of 26.6 degrees. Therefore, the total displacement is 223 m at an angle of 26.6 degrees north of west.
