An arrow of mass 415 g is shot at a target with a speed of 68.5m/s. The target, which has a mass of 3.3 kg, is moving toward the

arrow with a speed of 1.1m/s. The surface on which the target is sliding is friction-free. If the arrow embeds itself in the target, what will be the velocity of the target/arrow mass after the collision? Take the arrow's initial velocity direction as positive

The velocity of the target and arrow after collision is 6.67m/s

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given:

Mass of arrow, mₐ = 415g

Speed of arrow, vₐ = 68.5m/s

Mass of the target, mₓ = 3.3kg = 3300g

speed of the target, vₓ = -1.1m/s (Because the target moves in opposite direction

Velocity of the target and arrow after collision, vₙ = ?

Applying the conservation of momentum,

mₐvₐ + mₓvₓ = (mₐ+mₓ) vₙ

415 X 68.5 + 3300 X -1.1 = (415+3300) X vₙ

28427.5 - 3630 = 3715 X vₙ

24797.5 = 3715 X vₙ

vₙ = 6.67m/s

Therefore, the velocity of the target and arrow after collision is 6.67m/s

D section a only still need help on this
SIZIF [17.4K]

Acceleration means speeding up, slowing down, or changing direction. The graph doesn't show anything about direction, so we just have to examine it for speeding up or slowing down ... any change of speed.

The y-axis of this graph IS speed. So the height of a point on the line is speed. If the line is going up or down, then speed is changing.

Sections a, c, and d are all going up or down. Section b is the only one where speed is not changing. So we can't be sure about b, because we don't know if the track may be curving ... the graph can't tell us that. But a, c, and d are DEFINITELY showing acceleration.

A skateboarder is moving 5.25 m/s when he starts to roll up a frictionless hill. How much higher is he when his velocity has red
Taya2010 [7]
Mechanical energy E = mgh + 1/2mv²

When he starts, let h = 0 ⇒ E₁ = 1/2mv₁²
When he reaches height h ⇒ E₂ = mgh + 1/2mv₂²

Without friction, energy is conserved at all times.

E₁ = E₂
     ↓
1/2mv₁² = mgh + 1/2mv₂²
     ↓
1/2v₁² = gh + 1/2v₂²
     ↓
gh = 1/2(v₁² - v₂²)
    ↓
h = (v₁² - v₂²) / (2g)
