It’s not impossible because the gravitational pull from the earths gravity from the atmosphere will pull you in just like all other planets that’s why you can fall at really fast speeds from the air.

P5. A bullet with an initial velocity of 280 m/s in the x-direction penetrates an initially stationary block of mass 11 kg and e

aliya0001 [1]

Answer:

the mass of the bullet is 10.5 g

Explanation:

Given;

initial velocity, u₁ = 280 m/s

final velocity of the bullet, v₁ = 70 m/s

final velocity of the block, v₂ = 0.2 m/s

mass of the block, m₂ = 11 kg

initial velocity of the block, u₂ = 0

let the mass of the bullet = m₁

Apply the principle of conservation of linear momentum for elastic collision to calculate the mass of the bullet.

m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = m₁v₁ + m₂v₂

280m₁ + 11(0) = 70m₁ + 11 x 0.2

280m₁ = 70m₁ + 2.2

280m₁ - 70m₁ = 2.2

210m₁ = 2.2

m₁ = 2.2/210

m₁ = 0.0105 kg

m₁ = 10.5 g

Therefore, the mass of the bullet is 10.5 g
