Grade 12th passThermal PhysicsA lead bullet of mass 50gram moving witha velocity of 10m per Sec strikes a target. If 40%is retained by the bullet. Caclulate the raise in it`s temperature where Specific heat equal to 4.2 joule per cal. Amiya Kumar 8 Years agoGrade 12th pass
Arun8 Years agoDear student Energy = 1/2 * 0.05 * 10² = 2.5 joule Now m* s * delta T = 2.5 0.05 * 4.2 * delta T = 2.5 delta T = 2.5/4.2* 0.05 = 11.904 Hence its temperature increases by 11.9°C. Regards Arun (askIITians forum expert)
