A block that has a mass M = 500 g is hanging at rest on a light string. A projectile with a mass m = 15 g moving horizontally wi
stira [4]

Answer:

2.8m

Explanation:

Convert to metric:

500g = 0.5 kg

15g = 0.015 kg

Assuming elastics collision, we could use the law of momentum conservation to calculate the speed of black and projectile post-collision V:

mv = (M + m)V

V = \frac{mv}{m+M} = \frac{0.015*255}{0.5 + 0.015} = 7.43 m/s

This would make the system moves up, which convert its kinetic energy to potential energy. By the law of energy conservation when the mass reaches its highest point (aka speed = 0)

E_k = E_p

0.5(M+m)V^2 = (M+m)gh

h = \frac{V^2}{2g} = \frac{7.43^2}{2*9.81} = 2.8m

When the shadow of the moon appears on earths surface what is occuring?
Ket [755]

The moon surface is visible to an observer on earth due to the gravitational force that attracts the moon to the earth. The more massive the body is, the more the smaller body is attracted to the larger body. We can only see the side of the moon due to the speed at which the moon rotates.
