Answer:
t=0.42s
Explanation:
Here you have an inelastic collision. By the conservation of the momentum you have:
m1: mass of the bullet
m2: wooden block mass
v1: velocity of the bullet
v2: velocity of the wooden block
v: velocity of bullet and wooden block after the collision.
By noticing that after the collision, both objects reach the same height from where the wooden block was dropped, you can assume that v is equal to the negative of v2. In other words:
Where you assumed that the negative direction is upward. By replacing and doing v2 the subject of the formula you get:
Now, with this information you can use the equation for the final speed of an accelerated motion and doing t the subject of the formula. IN other words:
hence, the time is t=0.42 s
Answer:
The speed of water must be expelled at 6.06 m/s
Explanation:
Neglecting any drag effects of the surrounding water we can assume the linear momentum in this case is conserves, that is, the total initial momentum of the octopus and the water kept in it cavity should be equal to the total final linear momentum. That's known as conservation of momentum, mathematically expressed as:
with Pi the total initial momentum and Pf the final total momentum. The total momentum is the sum of the momentums of the individual objects, in our case the octopus and the mass of water that will be expelled:
with Po the momentum of the octopus and Pw the momentum of expelled water. Linear momentum is defined as mass times velocity:
Note that initially the octopus has the water in its cavity and both are at rest before it sees the predator so :
We should find the final velocity of water if the final velocity of the octopus is 2.70 m/s, solving for :
The minus sign indicates the velocity of the water is opposite the velocity of the octopus.
