Answer:

Friction force on the bullet is 58.7 N opposite to its velocity

Explanation:

As we know that initial speed of the bullet is 55 m/s

after travelling into the sand bag by distance d = 1.34 m it comes to rest

so final speed

v_f = 0

now we can use kinematics top find the acceleration of the bullet

v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 a d

so we have

0 - 55^2 = 2(a)(1.34)

a = -1128.7 m/s^2

now by Newton's II law we know that

F = ma

so we have

F = (0.052)(-1128.7)

F = -58.7 N

A mass of 148 g stretches a spring 13 cm. The mass is set in motion from its equlibrium position with a downward velocity of 10
Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

u(t)=1.15 \sin (8.68t)cm

0.3619sec

Explanation:

Given that

Mass,m=148 g

Length,L=13 cm

Velocity,u'(0)=10 cm/s

We have to find the position u of the mass at any time t

We know that

\omega_0=\sqrt{\frac{g}{L}}\\\\=\sqrt{\frac{980}{13}}\\\\=8.68 rad/s

Where g=980 cm/s^2

u(t)=Acos8.68 t+Bsin 8.68t

u(0)=0

Substitute the value

A=0\\u'(t)=-8.68Asin8.68t+8.68 Bcos8.86 t

Substitute u'(0)=10

8.68B=10

B=\frac{10}{8.68}=1.15

Substitute the values

u(t)=1.15 \sin (8.68t)cm

Period =T = 2π/8.68

After half period

π/8.68 it returns to equilibruim

π/8.68 = 0.3619sec

-- objects at rest will remain at rest unless acted upon by an outside force

-- objects in motion will remain in motion unless acted upon by an outside force
