A 0.0140 kg bullet traveling at 205 m/s east hits a motionless 1.80 kg block and bounces off it, retracing its original path wit

h a velocity of 103 m/s west. What is the final velocity of the block? Assume the block rests on a perfectly frictionless horizontal surface.

Answer:

Final velocity of the block = 2.40 m/s east.

Explanation:

Here momentum is conserved.

Initial momentum = Final momentum

Mass of bullet = 0.0140 kg

Consider east as positive.

Initial velocity of bullet = 205 m/s

Mass of Block = 1.8 kg

Initial velocity of block = 0 m/s

Initial momentum = 0.014 x 205 + 1.8 x 0 = 2.87 kg m/s

Final velocity of bullet = -103 m/s

We need to find final velocity of the block( u )

Final momentum = 0.014 x -103+ 1.8 x u = -1.442 + 1.8 u

We have

            2.87 = -1.442 + 1.8 u

               u = 2.40 m/s

Final velocity of the block = 2.40 m/s east.

Two train 75 km apart approach each other on parallel tracks, each moving at
creativ13 [48]

Answer:

The correct solution is "37.5 km".

Explanation:

Given:

Distance between the trains,  

d = 75 km

Speed of each train,

= 15 km/h

The relative speed will be:

= 15 + (-15)

= 30 \ km/h

The speed of the bird,

V = 15 km/h

Now,

The time taken to meet will be:

t=\frac{Distance}{Relative \ speed}

  =\frac{75}{30}

  =2.5 \ h

hence,

The distance travelled by the bird in 2.5 h will be:

⇒ D = V t

        =15\times 2.5

        =37.5 \ km
