262 m/s. If it takes 1 ms to traverse the barrel, determine the average acceleration
experienced by the 16.2-g bullet within the gun, and then compute the average force

Typically, a bullet leaves a standard 45-caliber pistol (5.0-in. barrel) at a speed of 262m/s.If it takes 1 ms to traverse the barrel ,determine the average acceleration experienced by the 16.2g bullet within the gun and then compute the average force exerted on it .
A Chinook salmon can swim underwater at 3.58 m/s, and it can also jump vertically upward, leaving the water with a speed of 6.26 m/s. A record salmon has length 1.50 m and mass 61.0 kg. Consider the fish swimming straight upward in the water below the surface of a lake. The gravitational force exerted on it is very nearly canceled out by a buoyant force exerted by the water. The fish experiences an upward force P exerted by the water on its threshing tail fin and a downward fluid friction force that we model as acting on its front end. Assume the fluid friction force disappears as soon as the fish’s head breaks the water surface and assume the force on its tail is constant. Model the gravitational force as suddenly switching full on when half the length of the fish is out of the water. Find the value of P.
Question 5. A 21.3-g bullet is fired from a rifle. It takes 2.40 × 10-³ s for the bullet to travel the
length of the barrel, and it exits the barrel with a speed of 730 m/s. Assuming that the acceleration
of the bullet is constant, find the average net force exerted on the bullet. Ans: 6479 N
