A bullet with a mass m b = 11.9 mb=11.9 g is fired into a block of wood at velocity v b = 261 m/s. vb=261 m/s. The block is atta
fredd [130]

Answer:

0.372 kg

Explanation:

The collision between the bullet and the block is inelastic, so only the total momentum of the system is conserved. So we can write:

mu=(M+m)v (1)

where

m=11.9 g = 11.9\cdot 10^{-3}kg is the mass of the bullet

u=261 m/s is the initial velocity of the bullet

M is the mass of the block

v is the velocity at which the bullet and the block travels after the collision

We also know that the block is attached to a spring, and that the surface over which the block slides after the collision is frictionless. This means that the energy is conserved: so, the total kinetic energy of the block+bullet system just after the collision will entirely convert into elastic potential energy of the spring when the system comes to rest. So we can write

\frac{1}{2}(M+m)v^2 = \frac{1}{2}kx^2 (2)

where

k = 205 N/m is the spring constant

x = 35.0 cm = 0.35 m is the compression of the spring

From eq(1) we get

v=\frac{mu}{M+m}

And substituting into eq(2), we can solve to find the mass of the block:

(M+m) \frac{(mu)^2}{(M+m)^2}=kx^2\\\frac{(mu)^2}{M+m}=kx^2\\M+m=\frac{(mu)^2}{kx^2}\\M=\frac{(mu)^2}{kx^2}-m=\frac{(11.9\cdot 10^{-3}\cdot 261)^2}{(205)(0.35)^2}-11.9\cdot 10^{-3}=0.372 kg

Murrr4er [49]
The three types of stress that act on Earth's rocks are compression, tension and shear. Among all the options that are given in the question, the correct option is option "D". These kind of stress action creates the rocks to break in a natural way. The earth's rocks sometimes collide with one another, pull apart from each other and sometimes slide against each other. Whenever two rocks collide with each other, they create a compression force. When the two rocks of the earth tries to pull away from each other, it creates a tension force. The sliding of two earth's rocks creates a shearing force.

If 20 beats are produced within one second, which of the following frequencies could possibly be held by two sound waves traveli
NeTakaya

Answer:

D. 22 Hz and 42 Hz

Explanation:

  • When two waves with different frequency travelling in the same medium meet each other, they produce an interference pattern called beat.
  • <em><u>The frequency of the beat produced is equivalent to </u></em><em><u>the difference between the individual frequencies of the two waves involved.</u></em>
  • <em><u>Therefore; in this case since the frequency of the beat is 20 Hz, that is from 20 beats per second.</u></em>
  • We need to find a pair from the choices whose frequency difference is 20 Hz.
  • This happens to be choice D. 22 Hz and 42 Hz,  that is 42 Hz - 22 Hz = 20 Hz
