A bullet of mass m and speed v is fired at, hits and passes completely through a pendulum bob of mass M on the end of a stiff ro

d of negligible mass and length L. The bullet emerges with a speed of v/2 and the pendulum bob just makes it over the top of the trajectory without falling backward in its circular path. Determine an expression (V=?) for the minimum initial speed the bullet must have in order for the pendulum bob to just barely swing through a complete vertical circle. (Use any variable or symbol stated above as necessary.)

Required value of initial speed of the bullet be ( 4M/m)√(gL).

Given parameters:

Mass of the bullet =m.

Mass of the bob of the pendulum = M.

speed of the bullet before collision = v

Speed of the bullet after collision = v/2.

Length of the pendulum stiff rod = L.

Let speed transmitted to the pendulum be u.

Using principle of conservation of momentum:

mv = Mu + mv/2

⇒ Mu = mv/2

⇒ u = (m/M)v/2

We know that: to make the bob over the top of the trajectory without falling backward in its circular path, required speed be = √(4gL). [ where g = acceleration due to gravity]

To be minimum initial speed the bullet must have in order for the pendulum bob to just barely swing through a complete vertical circle:

u = √(4gL)

⇒  (m/M)v/2 = √(4gL)

⇒ v =( 4M/m)√(gL).

Hence, minimum required  speed of the bullet be ( 4M/m)√(gL).

I need help with these Physics problems​
adoni [48]

Answer:

1. 3 m

2. 27 s

Explanation:

1. "A car traveling at +33 m/s sees a red light and has to stop.  If the driver can accelerate at -5.5 m/s², how far does it travel?"

Given:

v₀ = 33 m/s

v = 0 m/s

a = -5.5 m/s²

Unknown: Δx

To determine the equation you need, look for which variable you don't have and aren't solving for.  In this case, we aren't given time and aren't solving for time.  So look for an equation that doesn't have t in it.

Equation: v² = v₀² + 2aΔx

Substitute and solve:

(0 m/s)² = (33 m/s)² + 2(-5.5 m/s²) Δx

Δx = 3 m

2. "A plane starting from rest at one end of a runway accelerates at 4.8 m/s² for 1800 m.  How long did it take to accelerate?"

Given:

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = 4.8 m/s²

Δx = 1800 m

Unknown: t

Equation: Δx = v₀ t + ½ a t²

Substitute and solve:

1800 m = (0 m/s) t + ½ (4.8 m/s²) t²

t ≈ 27 s

Three joggers are running along straight lines as follows: Jogger A, with a mass of 55.2kg, is traveling along the line y=6.00m
frutty [35]

Answer:

L = - 1361.591 k Kgm/s

Explanation:

Given

mA = 55.2 Kg

vA = 3.45 m/s

rA = 6.00 m

mB = 62.4 Kg

vB = 4.23 m/s

rB = 3.00 m

mC = 72.1 Kg

vC = 4.75 m/s

rC = - 5.00 m

then we apply the equation

L =  (mv x r)

⇒  LA = mA*vA x rA = 55.2 *(3.45 i)x(6 j) = (1142.64 k) Kgm/s

⇒  LB = mB*vB x rB = 62.4 *(4.23 j)x(3 i) = (- 791.856 k) Kgm/s

⇒  LC = mC*vC x rC = 72.1 *(- 4.75 j)x(- 5 i) = (- 1712.375 k) Kgm/s

Finally, the total counterclockwise angular momentum of the three joggers about the origin is

L = LA + LB + LC = (1142.64 - 791.856 -1712.375) k  Kgm/s

L = - 1361.591 k Kgm/s
