A pendulum consists of a 1.7-kg block hanging on a 1.6-m length string. A 0.01-kg bullet moving with a horizontal velocity of 82

8 m/s strikes, passes through, and emerges from the block (initially at rest) with a horizontal velocity of 340 m/s. To what maximum height above its initial position will the block swing? Write your answer in meters.

Answer:

0.42 m

Explanation:

mass of pendulum, M = 1.7 kg

Length of pendulum , l = 1.6 m

mass of bullet, m = 0.01 kg

initial velocity of bullet, u = 828 m/s

final velocity of bullet, v = 340 m/s

initial velocity of pendulum, U = 0

Let the final velocity of pendulum is V.

Use conservation of momentum for bullet and the pendulum

m x u + M x U = m x v + M x V

0.01 x 828 + 1.7 x 0 = 0.01 x 340 + 1.7 x V

8.28 + 0 = 3.4 = 1.7 V

V = 2.87 m/s

Now the kinetic energy of the pendulum is converted into potential energy of pendulum and let it raised to a height of h from the initial level.

Use energy conservation

Kinetic energy of the pendulum  = potential energy of the pendulum

0.5 x M x V² = M x g x h

0.5 x 2.87 x 2.87 = 9.8 x h

h = 0.42 m

Do simple machines change the amount of work done?
creativ13 [48]

Simple machines make work easier by multiplying, reducing, or changing the direction of a force. The scientific formula for work is w = f x d, or, work is equal to force multiplied by distance. Simple machines cannot change the amount of work done, but they can reduce the effort force that is required to do the work

Astronomers believe that cosmic background radiation formed:
mr_godi [17]
The assumption that the cosmic microwave background
is the remnant of the environment at the time of the big bang
or very shortly after it explains very well what we observe now. 
So it is the current prevailing theory. "Believe" is not involved.
