Someone fires a 0.04 kg bullet at a block of wood that has a mass of 0.5 kg. (The block of wood is sitting on a frictionless sur

face, so it moves freely when the bullet hits it). The wood block is initially at rest. The bullet is traveling 300 m/s when it hits the wood block and sticks inside it. Now the bullet and the wood block move together as one object. How fast are they traveling? Please show your work

The momentum of the wood and the bullet is equal to the momentum of the bullet before it hits the wood = 0.04 x 300 = 120 kg m/sHence (0.5 + 0.04)*v = 120 kg m/s, v = 120 kg m/s / 0.54 kg = 222.2 m/s3) Force = rate of change of momentum = 0.16(38+44)/0.002 = 6560 N

g initial angular velocity of 39.1 rad/s. It starts to slow down uniformly and comes to rest, making 76.8 revolutions during the
MrRa [10]

Answer:

Approximately -1.58\; \rm rad \cdot s^{-2}.

Explanation:

This question suggests that the rotation of this object slows down "uniformly". Therefore, the angular acceleration of this object should be constant and smaller than zero.

This question does not provide any information about the time required for the rotation of this object to come to a stop. In linear motions with a constant acceleration, there's an SUVAT equation that does not involve time:

v^2 - u^2 = 2\, a\, x,

where

  • v is the final velocity of the moving object,
  • u is the initial velocity of the moving object,
  • a is the (linear) acceleration of the moving object, and
  • x is the (linear) displacement of the object while its velocity changed from u to v.

The angular analogue of that equation will be:

(\omega(\text{final}))^2 - (\omega(\text{initial}))^2 = 2\, \alpha\, \theta, where

  • \omega(\text{final}) and \omega(\text{initial}) are the initial and final angular velocity of the rotating object,
  • \alpha is the angular acceleration of the moving object, and
  • \theta is the angular displacement of the object while its angular velocity changed from \omega(\text{initial}) to \omega(\text{final}).

For this object:

  • \omega(\text{final}) = 0\; \rm rad\cdot s^{-1}, whereas
  • \omega(\text{initial}) = 39.1\; \rm rad\cdot s^{-1}.

The question is asking for an angular acceleration with the unit \rm rad \cdot s^{-1}. However, the angular displacement from the question is described with the number of revolutions. Convert that to radians:

\begin{aligned}\theta &= 76.8\; \rm \text{revolution} \\ &= 76.8\;\text{revolution} \times 2\pi\; \rm rad \cdot \text{revolution}^{-1} \\ &= 153.6\pi\; \rm rad\end{aligned}.

Rearrange the equation (\omega(\text{final}))^2 - (\omega(\text{initial}))^2 = 2\, \alpha\, \theta and solve for \alpha:

\begin{aligned}\alpha &= \frac{(\omega(\text{final}))^2 - (\omega(\text{initial}))^2}{2\, \theta} \\ &= \frac{-\left(39.1\; \rm rad \cdot s^{-1}\right)^2}{2\times 153.6\pi\; \rm rad} \approx -1.58\; \rm rad \cdot s^{-1}\end{aligned}.

A 4 kg box is on a frictionless 35° slope and is connected via a massless string over a massless, frictionless pulley to a hangi
Anarel [89]

Answer:

(a) 19.62 N

(b) Box moves down the slope

(c) 24.43 N

Explanation:

(a)  

2 Kg box  causes tension

T=mgwhere m is mass, g is gravitational force taken as 9.81T=2*9.81 =19.62 N  (b)  Block mass of 4 Kg  [tex]T'-mg sin \theta=0 hence T'=mg sin \theta where m is mass and g is gravitational force  

T'=4*9.81 sin 35= 22.5071 N  

Since T' is greater than mg sin\theta , then the box moves down the slope  

(c)  

Acceleration a= \frac {forward   force-backward   force}{Total mass}= \frac {mg sin \theta -mg}{m1 + m2}  

a= \frac {22.51-19.62}{2+4}=0.48

When moving, the box will exert force T"= mgsin \theta + ma  

T"= 4*9.81 sin 35 +(4*0.48)= 24.43 N

The answer to the question would be Refraction.

as we know the two possible answers are refraction and reflection. The questions shows a decrease in speed thus being refraction as a ray in a reflection would not lose its speed. Hope this helps!
