The expanding gases that leave the muzzle of a rifle also contribute to the recoil. a .30 caliber bullet has mass 7.20×10−3 kg and a speed of 601 m/s relative to the muzzle when fired from a rifle that has mass 3.00 kg. the loosely held rifle recoils at a speed of 1.95 m/s relative to the earth.
find the momentum of the propellant gases in a coordinate system attached to the earth as they leave the muzzle of the rifle.
p =
{\rm kg \cdot m/s}

Aregion of space in which a measurable gravitational force is indicated by the force exerted on a test mass is called

Suppose water is leaking from a tank through a circular hole of area ah at its bottom. when water leaks through a hole, friction and contraction of the stream near the hole reduce the volume of water leaving the tank per second to cah 2gh , where c (0 < c < 1) is an empirical constant. a tank in the form of a right-circular cone standing on end, vertex down, is leaking water through a circular hole in its bottom. (assume the removed apex of the cone is of negligible height and volume.) (a) suppose the tank is 20 feet high and has radius 8 feet and the circular hole has radius 2 inches. the differential equation governing the height h in feet of water leaking from a tank after t seconds is dh dt = − 5 6h3/2 . if the height of the water is initially 8 feet, how long will it take the tank to empty? (round your answer to two decimal places.)

Work = force × a. work b. energy c. distance d. momentum
