A 4.00 kg block is suspended from a spring with k 500 N/m. A 50.0 g bullet is fired into the block from directly below with a sp

eed of 150 m/s and becomes embedded in the block. (a) Find the amplitude of the resulting SHM. (b) What percentage of the origi- nal kinetic energy of the bullet is transferred to mechanical energy of the oscillator

Answer:

a. A = 0.1656 m

b. % E = 1.219

Explanation:

Given

mB = 4.0 kg , mb = 50.0 g = 0.05 kg , u₁ = 150  m/s , k = 500 N / m

a.

To find the amplitude of the resulting SHM using conserver energy

ΔKe + ΔUg + ΔUs = 0

¹/₂ * m * v²  -  ¹/₂ * k * A² = 0

A = √ mB * vₓ² / k

vₓ = mb * u₁ / mb + mB

vₓ = 0.05 kg * 150 m / s / [0.050 + 4.0 ] kg = 1.8518

A = √ 4.0 kg * (1.852 m/s)²   /   (500 N / m)

A = 0.1656 m

b.

The percentage of kinetic energy

%E = Es / Ek

Es = ¹/₂ * k * A² = 500 N / m * 0.1656²m = 13.72 N*0.5

Ek = ¹/₂ * mb * v² = 0.05 kg * 150² m/s = 1125 N

% E = 13.72 / 1125 = 0.01219 *100

% E = 1.219

True or false? Scientific laws can be expressed through a law that relates several variables.
Marina86 [1]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Scientific laws are often written as expressions that contains variables and are laws that are binding themselves.

In science, laws are natural phenomenon that draws from careful observations that holds through following a series of detailed study. Within the range of assumed parameters, a law will always hold true.

Most laws in science are denoted using mathematical variables which helps to interpret them.

The variables shows the relationship between the different parts of the law.

For example, Newton's law of universal gravitation is expressed mathematically as shown below;

                          F  =  \frac{G m_{1} m_{2}  }{r^{2} }

where G, m and r are all variables.

  G is the universal gravitation constant

   m is mass

   r is the distance between them.

   F is the gravitational force.

Most scientific laws are often expressed in this format.

Now, let's see what happens when the cannon is high above the ground. Click on the cannon, and drag it upward as far as it goes
kipiarov [429]

Answer:

<h2>B. 20°</h2>

Explanation:

Range in projectile is defined as the distance covered in the horizontal direction. It is expressed as R = U²sin2Ф/g

U is the initial velocity of the body (in m/s)

Ф is the angle of projection

g is the acceleration due to gravity.

Given U = 14m/s, g = 9.8m/s and range R = 15 m

we will substitute this value into the formula to get the projection angle Ф as shown;

15 = 15²sin2Ф/9.8

15*9.8 = 15²sin2Ф

147 = 225sin2Ф

sin2Ф = 147/225

sin2Ф = 0.6533

2Ф = sin⁻¹0.6533

2Ф = 40.79°

Ф = 40.79°/2

Ф = 20.39° ≈ 20°

Hence, the range is greatest at angle 20°
