The final velocity of the bullet+block is 0.799 m/s

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by applying the principle of conservation of momentum: in fact, the total momentum of the bullet-block system must be conserved before and after the collision.

Mathematically, we can write:

mu+MU=(m+M)v

where

m = 0.001 kg is the mass of the bullet

u = 800 m/s is the initial velocity of the bullet

M = 1 kg is the mass of the block

U = 0 is the initial velocity of the block (initially at rest)

v is the final combined velocity of the bullet and the block

Solving the equation for v, we  find the final velocity:

v=\frac{mu}{m+M}=\frac{(0.001)(800)}{0.001+1}=0.799 m/s

A motorbike is travelling with a velocity of 3m/s. It accelerates at a rate of 9.3m/s for 1.8s. Calculate the distance it travel
Misha Larkins [42]

Explanation:

Consider the kinematic equation,

x  = vt +  \frac{1}{2} a {t}^{2}

where x is the distance traveled, v is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration and t is time. By plugging in known values and solving for x,

x = 3(1.8) +  \frac{1}{2} (9.3) {1.8}^{2}

through simple algebra we get

x = 20.466

where this is the distance traveled in meters.

Consider a river flowing toward a lake at an average velocity of 3 m/s. the river height is 90m above the lake. what is the tota
strojnjashka [21]

Kinetic energy per unit of mass is

K=\frac{v^{2} }{2}

Given, v=3m/s^{2}

Therefore,

K=\frac{(3^{2} m/s^{2} )^2}{2}

K=4.5 J/kg

Now potential energy per unit mass is

p=g\times h

Given, h=90 m

Therefore,

p= 9.8m/s^2 \times 90

p=882.9 J/kg

Thus, total mechanical energy of the river water per unit mass is

T=K+p=(4.5+882.9)J/kg

T=887.9 J/kg

OR

T=0.887 kJ/kg

A spherical bowling ball with mass m = 3.6 kg and radius R = 0.101 m is thrown down the lane with an initial speed of v = 8.7 m/
luda_lava [24]

Answer:

1)  The magnitude of the angular acceleration = 67.92 rad/s^{2}

2) Magnitude of the linear acceleration = 2.744 m/s^{2}

3) How long does it take the bowling ball to begin rolling without slipping = 0.906 s

4) How long does it take the bowling ball to begin rolling without slipping = 6.75 m

5) the final velocity is 6.21 m/s

Explanation:

the given information :

Bowling mass m = 3.6 kg

Radius = 0.101 m

Initial speed v_{0} = 8.7 m/s

Coefficient of kinetic friction μ = 0.28

1) he magnitude of the angular acceleration of the bowling ball is

F = m a

F_{g}  = μ N  ,   N = m g

F_{g}  = μ m g

1) The magnitude of the angular acceleration of the bowling ball as it slides down the lane:

momen inersia of Bowling ball I = (2/5) m R^{2}

torque τ = I α

τ = F R

I α = F R

(2/5) m R^{2}  α = μ m g R

α = (5 μ g / 2R) μ g R

  = (5 x 0.28 x 9.8/ 2 x 0.101)

  = 67.92 rad/s^{2}

2) Magnitude of the linear acceleration of the bowling ball as it slides down the lane

F = - F_{g} , F_{k} is the force of kinetic friction

m a = - μ m g, remove m

the magnitude of linear accelaration is

a = μ g

  = (0.28) (9.8)

  = 2.744 m/s^{2}

3) The bowling ball takes time to begin rolling without slipping:

The linear speed, v_{t} = v_{0} - a t

                            v_{t}  =  v_{0} - μ g t

the angular speed, ω = ω0 + α t

                                ω = ω0 + (5  μ g/2R ) t

v_{t} = ω R

v_{0} - μ g t = ω0 R + (5  μ g/2R ) t R

7 μ g t/2 = v_{0} + ω0 R

hence,

t = (2 v_{0} + ω0 R)/  7 μ g

ω0 = 0 (no initial spin), therefore

t = 2 v_{0} / 7 μ g

 = 2 x 8.7 / 7 (0.28) (9.8)

 = 0.906 s

4) How long it takes for the bowling ball to begin rolling without slipping, S

S = v_{0}  t - (1/2) a t^{2}

  = (8.7) (0.906) - (1/2) (2.744) 0.906^{2}

  = 6.75 m

5) The final velocity

v_{t} = v_{0} - a t

v_{t} = 8.7 - (2.744) (0.906)

v_{t} = 6.21 m/s
