A rifle bullet with mass 8.00 g and initial horizontal velocity 280 m/s strikes and embeds itself in a block with mass 0.992 kg

that rests on a frictionless surface and is attached to one end of an ideal spring. The other end of the spring is attached to the wall. The impact compresses the spring a maximum distance of 15.0 cm. After the impact, the block moves in SHM. Calculate the period of this motion.

Answer:

0.4113772 s

Explanation:

Given the following :

Mass of bullet (m1) = 8g = 0.008kg

Initial horizontal Velocity (u1) = 280m/s

Mass of block (m2) = 0.992kg

Maxumum distance (x) = 15cm = 0.15m

Recall;

Period (T) = 2π√(m/k)

According to the law of conservation of momentum : (inelastic Collison)

m1 * u1 = (m1 + m2) * v

Where v is the final Velocity of the colliding bodies

0.008 * 280 = (0.008 + 0.992) * v

2.24 = 1 * v

v = 2.24m/s

K. E = P. E

K. E = 0.5mv^2

P.E = 0.5kx^2

0.5(0.992 + 0.008)*2.24^2 = 0.5*k*(0.15)^2

0.5*1*5.0176 = 0.5*k*0.0225

2.5088 = 0.01125k

k = 2.5088 / 0.01125

k = 223.00444 N/m

Therefore,

Period (T) = 2π√(m/k)

T = 2π√(0.992+0.008) / 233.0444

T = 2π√0.0042910

T = 2π * 0.0655059

T = 0.4113772 s

A record turntable rotates through 5.0 rad in 2.8 s as it is accelerated uniformly from rest. What is the angular velocity at th
Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

\omega_f = 3.584\ rad/s

Explanation:

given,

turntable rotate to, θ = 5 rad

time, t = 2.8 s

initial angular speed  = 0 rad/s

final angular speed = ?

now, using equation of rotational motion

\theta = \omega_i t + \dfrac{1}{2}\alpha t^2

5 = 0+ \dfrac{1}{2}\alpha\times 2.8^2

\alpha= \dfrac{10}{2.8^2}

       α = 1.28 rad/s²

now, calculation of angular velocity

\omega_f = \omega_i + \alpha t

\omega_f =0 +1.28\times 2.8

\omega_f = 3.584\ rad/s

hence, the angular velocity at the end is equal to 3.584 rad/s

3 In a television tube, an electron starting from rest experiences a force of 4.0 × 10−15 N over a distance of 50 cm. The final
MAXImum [283]

Answer:

The final speed of the electron = 2.095×10⁸ m/s

Explanation:

From newton's fundamental equation of dynamics,

F = ma ........................Equation 1

Where F = force, m = mass of the electron, a = acceleration of the electron.

making a the subject of the equation,

a = F/m.................... Equation 2

Given: F = 4.0×10⁻¹⁵ N,

Constant: m =  9.109×10⁻³¹ kg.

Substituting into equation 2

a = 4.0×10⁻¹⁵/9.109×10⁻³¹

a = 4.39×10¹⁶ m/s².

Using newton's equation of motion,

v² = u²+2as .......................... Equation 3

Where v = final velocity of the electron, u = initial velocity of the electron, a = acceleration of the electron, s = distance covered by the electron.

Given: u = 0 m/s(at rest), s = 50 cm = 0.5 m, a = 4.39×10¹⁶ m/s²

Substituting into equation 3

v² = 0² + 2(0.5)(4.39×10¹⁶)

v = √(4.39×10¹⁶)

v = 2.095×10⁸ m/s

Thus the final speed of the electron = 2.095×10⁸ m/s

A 4.50-kg wheel that is 34.5 cm in diametet rotates through an angle of 13.8 rad as it slows down uniformly from 22.0 rad/s to 1
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

\alpha =10.93radian/sec^2

Explanation:

We have given given the final angular velocity \omega _{final}=13.5rad/sec

And \omega _{initial}=22rad/sec

Displacement \Theta =13.8radian

We have to find the angular acceleration \alpha

According to law of motion \omega _{final}^2=\omega _{initial}^2+2\alpha \Theta

So 13.5^2=22^2+2\times \alpha \times 13.8

\alpha =-10.93radian/sec^2

In question we have tell about magnitude only so \alpha =10.93radian/sec^2
