To view an interactive solution to a problem that is similar to this one, select Interactive Solution 7.24. A 0.0146-kg bullet i

s fired straight up at a falling wooden block that has a mass of 2.55 kg. The bullet has a speed of 816 m/s when it strikes the block. The block originally was dropped from rest from the top of a building and had been falling for a time t when the collision with the bullet occurs. As a result of the collision, the block (with the bullet in it) reverses direction, rises, and comes to a momentary halt at the top of the building. Find the time t. Number Units.

Answer:

0.25223 seconds.

Explanation:

m_1 = Mass of bullet = 0.0146 kg

m_2 = Mass of block = 2.55 kg

v = Combined velocity

u_1 = Velocity of bullet = 816 m/s

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

As linear momentum is conserved

m_1u_1 + m_2u_2 =(m_1 + m_2)v

Now u_2=v as the block (with the bullet in it) reverses direction and rises,

m_1u_1 + m_2v =(m_1 + m_2)v\\\Rightarrow m_1u_1=(m_1 + m_2)v-m_2v\\\Rightarrow 0.0146\times 816=(0.0146 + 2.55)v-(-2.55v)\\\Rightarrow 11.9136=2.2646v+2.55v\\\Rightarrow 11.9136=4.8146v\\\Rightarrow v=\frac{11.9136}{4.8146}\\\Rightarrow v=2.47447\ m/s

Equation of motion

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{v-u}{a}\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{2.47447-0}{9.81}\\\Rightarrow t=0.25223\ s

The time t is 0.25223 seconds.

A. If a T-Rex runs 20 meters in 4 seconds, what is it’s average speed?
mariarad [96]

5m/s

100m

Explanation:

Average speed is sum of distance distance traveled in a given time by a body.

 Average speed= \frac{total distance covered}{time taken}

Distance = 20m

time = 4s

  Average speed = \frac{20}{4} = 5m/s

For the spaceship;

   Distance covered = speed x time

Speed = 50m/s

time = 2s

 Distance covered = 50 x 2 = 100m

student built a simple heat engine that could lift masses. If the heat engine takes in 300 J of heat and loses 50 J to the envir
k0ka [10]

Answer:

So it will lift the mass by h = 17 m

Explanation:

As per energy conservation we know that

Q_1 = W + Q_2

here we know that

Q_1 = 300 J

Q_2 = 50 J

now we have

W = 300 - 50

W = 250 J

so work done by the engine is 250 J

now we have

W = mgh

250 = 1.5 \times 9.81 \times h

h = 17 m

How can one find the mechanical advantage of a pulley?
Alborosie

Answer:

To calculate the mechanical advantage of a pulley you simply have to count the number of rope sections that support whatever object you are lifting (not counting the rope that is attached to the effort)

Example:

For example, in a one pulley system the MA is 1. In a two pulley system the MA is 2. The more compound the pulley is the easier the load is to lift. If you were lifting a 600kg object with 2 pulleys you would have to use enough effort to pull 300kg to lift the 600kg object! Therefore your mechanical advantage would be 2 (600/300).

               MA= load/effort OR number of rope sections
