Answer:
a)
b)
Explanation:
Complete question statement is as follows :
A wooden block of mass M resting on a friction less, horizontal surface is attached to a rigid rod of length ℓ and of negligible mass. The rod is pivoted at the other end. A bullet of mass m traveling parallel to the horizontal surface and perpendicular to the rod with speed v hits the block and becomes embedded in it.
(a) What is the angular momentum of the bullet–block system about a vertical axis through the pivot? (Use any variable or symbol stated above as necessary.)
(b) What fraction of the original kinetic energy of the bullet is converted into internal energy in the system during the collision? (Use any variable or symbol stated above as necessary.)
a)
= mass of the bullet
= velocity of the bullet before collision
= distance of the line of motion of bullet from pivot =
= Angular momentum of the bullet-block system
Angular momentum of the bullet-block system is given as
b)
= final velocity of bullet block combination
Using conservation of momentum
Angular momentum of bullet block combination = Angular momentum of bullet
= Initial kinetic energy of the bullet
Initial kinetic energy of the bullet is given as
= Final kinetic energy of bullet block combination
Final kinetic energy of bullet block combination is given as
Fraction of original kinetic energylost is given as
Fraction =
Fraction =
Fraction =
Answer:
A)
0.395 m
B)
2.4 m/s
Explanation:
A)
= mass of the cart = 1.4 kg
= spring constant of the spring = 50 Nm⁻¹
= initial position of spring from equilibrium position = 0.21 m
= initial speed of the cart = 2.0 ms⁻¹
= amplitude of the oscillation = ?
Using conservation of energy
Final spring energy = initial kinetic energy + initial spring energy
B)
= mass of the cart = 1.4 kg
= spring constant of the spring = 50 Nm⁻¹
= amplitude of the oscillation = 0.395 m
= maximum speed at the equilibrium position
Using conservation of energy
Kinetic energy at equilibrium position = maximum spring potential energy at extreme stretch of the spring
