The energy of a compressed (or stretched) spring is given by

$E= \frac{1}{2} k x^{2}$

This gives

$E= \frac{1}{2}80* 0.2^{2} =1.6J$

A 0.150 kg stone rests on a frictionless, horizontal surface. A bullet of mass 9.50 g, traveling horizontally at 380 m/s, strike

Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

(a)Magnitude=28.81 m/s

Direction=33.3 degree below the horizontal

(b) No, it is not perfectly elastic collision

Explanation:

We are given that

Mass of stone, M=0.150 kg

Mass of bullet, m=9.50 g= $9.50\times 10^{3} kg$

Initial speed of bullet, u=380 m/s

Initial speed of stone, U=0

Final speed of bullet, v=250m/s

a. We have to find the magnitude and direction of the velocity of the stone after it is struck.

Using conservation of momentum

$mu+ MU=mv+ MV$

Substitute the values

$9.5\times 10^{-3}\times 380 i+0.150(0)=9.5\times 10^{-3} (250)j+0.150V$

$3.61i=2.375j+0.150V$

$3.61 i-2.375j=0.150V$

$V=\frac{1}{0.150}(3.61 i-2.375j)$

$V=24.07i-15.83j$

Magnitude of velocity of stone

= $\sqrt{(24.07)^2+(-15.83)^2}$

|V|=28.81 m/s

Hence, the magnitude and direction of the velocity of the stone after it is struck, |V|=28.81 m/s

Direction

$\theta=tan^{-1}(\frac{y}{x})$

= $tan^{-1}(\frac{-15.83}{24.07})$

$\theta=tan^{-1}(-0.657)$

=33.3 degree below the horizontal

(b)

Initial kinetic energy

$K_i=\frac{1}{2}mu^2+0=\frac{1}{2}(9.5\times 10^{-3})(380)^2$

$K_i=685.9 J$

Final kinetic energy

$K_f=\frac{1}{2}mv^2+\frac{1}{2}MV^2$

= $\frac{1}{2}(9.5\times 10^{-3})(250)^2+\frac{1}{2}(0.150)(28.81)^2$

$K_f=359.12 J$

Initial kinetic energy is not equal to final kinetic energy. Hence, the collision is not perfectly elastic collision.

A positively charged particle moves through an electric field. As part of a complicated trajectory, the particle passes through

kow [346]

Answer:

(B) The speed is larger at A than at B.

Explanation:

Point B, the final point of the trajectory, has higher electric potential than point A, the initial point of the trajectory, so the electric potential energy of the charged particle increases, which means that its kinetic energy must be decreasing, thus the speed at B must be lower than the speed at A.
