Answer:
Potential energy
Explanation:
Before release, the catapult has potential energy stored in a tension of torsion device in it. Normally a flexible bow like object that could be made of wood or of metal.
Answer: Polarization
Explanation: Polarization is the movement of electrons within a neutral object because of the electric field of a nearby charged object. It occurs without direct contact between the two objects.
For example, electrons in a metal plate can repelled by the negative charges in a plastic rod if the plastic rod is placed near the metal plate. The electrons move away from the plastic rod, thereby causing one side of the metal plate to be positively charged and the other side to become negatively charged.
The block with the bullet lodged in the block is now travelling at 2.133 m/s.
<h3>What is momentum conservation principle?</h3>
When there is no external force acting on the system, the momentum remains conserved.
For inelastic collision, after collision both objects travel with common speed.
m1u1 + m2u2 =(m1 +m2)v
Substitute initial velocity of bullet u1 =320 m/s , initial velocity of block u2 =0, mass of bullet m1 = 0.1 kg and mass of block m2 = 14.9 kg.
Solve for the final velocity of bullet,
0.1 x 320 + 14.9 x 0 = (0.1 +14.9) x v
v = 2.133 m/s
Thus, the block with the bullet lodged in block now travelling at 2.133 m/s.
