A small block of wood of inertia mb is released from rest a distance h above the ground, directly above your head. you decide to

shoot it with your pellet gun, which fires a pellet of inertia mp. after the block has fallen a distance d, the pellet hits it and becomes embedded in it, kicking it upward. at the instant of impact, the pellet is moving at speed vp.

Since I'm assuming that its perfectly elastic, considering there's not enough information given, so I think that no energy is dissipated in the collision


hmax = h - d + { [ mpvp - mb√(2gd) ] / (mp+mb) }² / (2g)

Identify the law, write the equation and calculate the answer to the problem below.
lyudmila [28]

Find refractive index first

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow \mu=\dfrac{c}{v}

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow \mu=\dfrac{1.0003}{1.33}

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow \mu =0.75

Now

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow \dfrac{sini}{sinr}=\mu

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow \dfrac{sin45}{sinr}=0.75

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow \dfrac{sin45}{0.75}=sinr

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow sinr=0.94

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow r=sin^{-1}(0.94)

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow r=70^{\circ}

An apple from the top branch of the tree and an apple from the bottom branch of a tree fall at the same time. Which apple will h
Vedmedyk [2.9K]
B. The apple from the bottom will hit the ground earlier. This is because an increase in height causes an increase in the time that the object will fall, and therefore will affect the final velocity of the falling object. Moreover, the reduction in velocity due to friction from the air should also be considered.

A plane drops a hamper of medical supplies from a height of 5000 m during a practice run over the ocean. The plane’s horizontal
Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

346.70015 m/s

Explanation:

In the x axis speed is

v_x=149\ m/s

In the y axis

v_y=\sqrt{2gh}\\\Rightarrow v_y=\sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 5000}

The resultant velocity is given by

v=\sqrt{v_x^2+v_y^2}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{149^2+2\times 9.8\times 5000}\\\Rightarrow v=346.70015\ m/s

The magnitude of the overall velocity of the hamper at the instant it strikes the surface of the ocean is 346.70015 m/s

A solid disk of radius 1.4 cm and mass 430 g is attached by a wire to one of its circular faces. It is twisted through an angle
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

    f= 4,186  10²  Hz

Explanation:

El sistema descrito es un pendulo de torsión que oscila con con velocidad angular, que esta dada por

             w = √ k/I

donde ka es constante de torsion de hilo e I es el momento de inercia del disco

El  momento de inercia de indican que giran un eje que pasa                 por enronqueces

           I= ½ M R2  

reduzcamos las cantidades al sistema SI

         R= 1,4 cm = 0,014  m

         M= 430 g = 0,430 kg

substituimos

           w= √ (2 k/M R2)

calculemos  

           w = RA ( 2 370 / (0,430  0,014 2)

           w = 2,963 103 rad/s

la velocidad angular esta relacionada con la frecuencia por

            w =2pi f

            f= w/2π

            f= 2,963 10³/ (2π)

            f= 4,186  10²  Hz

What factor causes atmospheric pressure
bagirrra123 [75]
Atmospheric pressure is caused by the weight of the atmosphere pushing down on itself and on the surface below it.
Pressure is defined as the force acting on an object divided by the area upon witch the force is acting.
