Answer:

Option B - 360 J

Explanation:

One of the formulas used to find out how much work was done is :

E = 0.5×m×v² (where m is the mass and v is the velocity)

Now we substitute values from the question and simplify :

E = 0.5×500×1.2²

E = 250×1.2²

E = 250×1.44

E = 360 J

So our answer is Option B

Hope this helped and have a good day

Assume: The bullet penetrates into the block and stops due to its friction with the block. The compound system of the block plus
charle [14.2K]

Answer:

The total energy of the composite system is 7.8 J.

Explanation:

Given that,

Height = 0.15 m

Radius of circular arc = 0.27 m

Suppose, the entire track is friction less. a bullet with a m₁ = 30 g mass is fired horizontally into a block of wood with m₂ = 5.29 kg mass. the acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s.

Calculate the total energy of the composite system at any time after the collision.

We need to calculate the total energy of the composite system

Total energy of the system at any time = Potential energy of the system at the stopping point

E=mgh+Mgh

E=(m+M)gh

Put the value in to the formula

E=(30\times10^{-3}+5.29)\times 9.8\times0.15

E=7.8\ J

Hence, The total energy of the composite system is 7.8 J.

A mass of 1 slug, when attached to a spring, stretches it 2 feet and then comes to rest in the equilibrium position. Starting at
Vesna [10]

Answer:

Y=(\dfrac{3}{16}+t \dfrac{3}{8})e^{-2t}-\dfrac{3}{16}cos 4t

Explanation:

Given that m= 1 slug and given that spring stretches by 2 feet so we can find the spring constant K

mg=k x

1 x 32= k x 2

K=16

And also give that damping force is 8 times the velocity so damping constant C=8.

We know that equation for spring mass system

my''+Cy'+Ky=F

Now by putting the values

1 y"+8 y'+ 16y=6 cos 4 t ----(1)

The general solution of equation Y=CF+IP

Lets assume that at steady state the equation of y will be

y(IP)=A cos 4t+ B sin 4t

To find the constant A and B we have to compare this equation with equation 1.

Now find y' and y" (by differentiate with respect to t)

y'= -4A sin 4t+4B cos 4t

y"=-16A cos 4t-16B sin 4t

Now put the values of y" , y' and y in equation 1

1 (-16A cos 4t-16B sin 4t)+8( -4A sin 4t+4B cos 4t)+16(A cos 4t+ B sin 4t)=6sin4 t

So by comparing the coefficient both sides

-16A+32B+16A=0  So B=0

-16 B-32 A+16B=6  So A=-3/16

y=-3/16 cos 4t

Now to find the CF  of differential equation 1

y"+8 y'+ 16y=6 cos 4 t

Homogeneous version of above equation

m^2+8m+16=0

So CF =(C_1+tC_2)e^{-2t}

So the general equation

Y=(C_1+tC_2)e^{-2t}-3/16 cos 4t

Given that t=0 Y=0 So

C_1=\dfrac{3}{16}

t=0 Y'=0 So

C_2 =\dfrac{3}{8}

Y=(\dfrac{3}{16}+t \dfrac{3}{8})e^{-2t}-\dfrac{3}{16}cos 4t

The above equation is the general equation for motion.
