   After impact velocity = 14.968 ft/s

Weight and mass of Bullet and wooden block:

Bullet: w = 1oz = 1/16 lb m = 0.001941 lb

wooden block : W = 5lb M = 0.15528 lb

velocity of block and bullet immediately after impact:

Σmv1 + ΣImp = mv2

Resolving vertical component

( m× v₀cos30⁰) + 0 = ( m+M) v'

v' = ( m× v₀cos30⁰)/ (m+M)

v' = 14.968 ft/s

Horizontal and vertical component of the impulse exerted by block on the bullet:

   Here we will apply the principle of impulse and momentum.

 Horizontal component:

          -mv₀ cos30⁰ + RxΔt  =0

                                 RxΔt = mv₀sin30⁰

                                          = 0.001941 × 1400sin30⁰

                                   RxΔt = 1.3587 lb.s

         Vertical component:

                           -mv₀cos30⁰  + RyΔt =  -mv'

                                     RyΔt = m( v₀cos30⁰-v')

                                     RyΔt = 0.001941(1400cos30⁰ - 14.968)

                                              = 2.32 lb.s

Vector A → has magnitude 8.78 m at 37.0 ∘ from the + x axis. Vector B → has magnitude 8.26 m at 135.0 ∘ from the + x axis. Vecto
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

R = (- 3.72î + 8.29j)

Magnitude of R = 9.09 m

Explanation:

Let î and j represent unit vectors along the x and y axis respectively.

Vector A --> magnitude 8.78 m, direction 37.0° from the +x-axis

Let the x and y components of this vector be Aₓ and Aᵧ

A = (Aₓî + Aᵧj) m

The components given magnitude and direction from the +x-axis are calculated as

Aₓ = A cos θ and Aᵧ = A sin θ

Aₓ = (8.78 cos 37°) = 7.01 m

Aᵧ = (8.78 sin 37°) = 5.28 m

A = (7.01î + 5.28j) m

Vector B has magnitude 8.26 m and direction 135° from the +x-axis

B = (Bₓî + Bᵧj) m

Bₓ = (8.26 cos 135°) = - 5.84 m

Bᵧ = (8.26 sin 135°) = 5.84 m

B = (-5.84î + 5.84j) m

Vector C has magnitude 5.65 m and direction 210° from the +x-axis

C = (Cₓî + Cᵧj) m

Cₓ = (5.65 cos 210°) = - 4.89 m

Cᵧ = (5.65 sin 210°) = - 2.83 m

C = (- 4.89î - 2.83j) m

The resultant force is a vector sum of all the forces. Let the resultant force be R

R = (Rₓî + Rᵧj) m

R = A + B + C = (7.01î + 5.28j) + (-5.84î + 5.84j) + (- 4.89î - 2.83j)

Summing the î and j components seperately,

R = (- 3.72î + 8.29j) m

To get its magnitude,

Magnitude of R = √(Rₓ² + Rᵧ²) = √((-3.72)² + (8.29)²) = 9.09 m
