A bullet is fired horizontally into an initially stationary block of wood suspended by a string and remains embedded in the bloc
UkoKoshka [18]

The ratio of the kinetic energy of the block/bullet system immediately after the collision to the initial kinetic energy of the bullet is 0.78 %.

<h3>Final velocity of the block/bullet system</h3>

Apply the principle of conservation of energy to determine the final velocity of the block/bullet system.

K.E = P.E

¹/₂mv² = mgh

¹/₂v² = gh

v² = 2gh

v = √2gh

where;

  • h is the maximum height reached by the system
  • v is the initial velocity of the system

v = √(2 x 9.8 x 1.1)

v = 4.64 m/s

<h3>Initial velocity of the bullet</h3>

Apply the principle of conservation of linear momentum.

m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = v(m₁ + m₂)

where;

  • u₁ is the initial velocity of the bullet
  • u₂ is the initial velocity of the block
  • v is the final velocity after collision
  • m₁ is mass bullet
  • m₂ is mass of block

(0.0075)u₁ + (0.95)(0) = 4.64(0.0075 + 0.95)

0.0075u₁ = 4.4428

u₁ = 4.4428/0.0075

u₁ = 592.37 m/s

<h3>Initial kinetic energy of the bullet</h3>

K.Ei = ¹/₂m₁u₁²

K.Ei = ¹/₂(0.0075)(592.37)²

K.Ei = 1,315.88 J

<h3>Final kinetic energy of the block/bullet system</h3>

K.Ef = ¹/₂(m₁ + m₂)v²

K.Ef = ¹/₂(0.0075 + 0.95)(4.64)²

K.Ef = 10.31 J

<h3>Ratio of final kinetic energy to initial kinetic energy</h3>

= K.Ef/K.Ei x 100%

= (10.31 / 1,315.88) x 100%

= 0.78 %

Two forces, F⃗ 1F→1F_1_vec and F⃗ 2F→2F_2_vec, act at a point,F⃗ 1F→1F_1_vec has a magnitude of 8.80 NN and is directed at an an
castortr0y [4]

Answer:

  • Fx = -9.15 N
  • Fy = 1.72 N
  • F∠γ ≈ 9.31∠-10.6°

Explanation:

You apparently want the sum of forces ...

  F = 8.80∠-56° +7.00∠52.8°

Your angle reference is a bit unconventional, so we'll compute the components of the forces as ...

  f∠α = (-f·cos(α), -f·sin(α))

This way, the 2nd quadrant angle that has a negative angle measure will have a positive y component.

  = -8.80(cos(-56°), sin(-56°)) -7.00(cos(52.8°), sin(52.8°))

  ≈ (-4.92090, 7.29553) +(-4.23219, -5.57571)

  ≈ (-9.15309, 1.71982)

The resultant component forces are ...

  • Fx = -9.15 N
  • Fy = 1.72 N

Then the magnitude and direction of the resultant are

  F∠γ = (√(9.15309² +1.71982²))∠arctan(-1.71982/9.15309)

  F∠γ ≈ 9.31∠-10.6°

what is the magnitude of the compression forces (assumed to be horizontal) acting on both sides of the center board that is sand
Len [333]

F = normal force by each board on each side

W = weight of the board in between acting in down direction = 95.5 N

f = frictional force in upward direction by each board

\mu = coefficient of friction = 0.663

Using equilibrium of force in Upward direction

f + f = W

f = W/2

f = 95.5/2 = 47.75 N

frictional force is given as

f = \mu F

47.75 = (0.663) F

F = 72.02 N

Please someone helppp me.. I will mark as brainliest.​
Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

b) G.P.E = Mgh

300j = M x 10 m/s² x 15 m

300 j/ 10 m/s² x 15 m = M

300j/ 150 s² = M

2kg = M

c) K.E = 1/2 m v²

K.E = 1/2 (50) (50)²

K.E = 1/2 (50) (2500)

K.E= 125000/2

K.E = 625 000 J
