Answer: 16.3 seconds

Explanation: Given that the

Initial velocity U = 80 ft/s

Let's first calculate the maximum height reached by using third equation of motion.

V^2 = U^2 - 2gH

Where V = final velocity and H = maximum height.

Since the toy is moving against the gravity, g will be negative.

At maximum height, V = 0

0 = 80^2 - 2 × 9.81 × H

6400 = 19.62H

H = 6400/19.62

H = 326.2

Let's us second equation of motion to find time.

H = Ut - 1/2gt^2

Let assume that the ball is dropped from the maximum height. Then,

U = 0. The equation will be reduced to

H = 1/2gt^2

326.2 = 1/2 × 9.81 × t^2

326.2 = 4.905t^2

t^2 = 326.2/4.905

t = sqrt( 66.5 )

t = 8.15 seconds

The time it will take for the rocket to return to ground level will be 2t.

That is, 2 × 8.15 = 16.3 seconds

A bullet with a mass of 0.00658 kg is fired through a 1.95 kg block of wood on a frictionless surface. The initial speed of the
Svetradugi [14.3K]

The final velocity of the block is 1.29 m/s

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by using the principle of conservation of momentum: in fact, the total momentum of the system must be conserved before and after the collision. Therefore, we can write:

p_i = p_f\\m_1 u_1 + m_2 u_2 = m_1 v_1 + m_2 v_2

where:

m_1 = 0.00658 kg is the mass of the bullet

u_1 = 822 m/s is the initial velocity of the bullet

v_1 = 439 m/s is the final velocity of the bullet

m_2 = 1.95 kg is the mass of the block

u_2 = 0 is the initial velocity of the block

v_2 is the final velocity of the block

Re-arranging the equation and solving for v2, we find:

v_2 = \frac{m_1 u_1 - m_1 v_1}{m_2}=\frac{(0.00658)(822)-(0.00658)(439)}{1.95}=1.29 m/s

Answer:

GE = ME - \frac{1}{2} m\,v^2,  which agrees with option C in your list.

Explanation:

The definition of Mechanical Energy (ME) of a system is the addition of the gravitational potential energy (GE) plus the kinetic energy (KE) of the system:

ME = GE + KE

Given that the KE is: \frac{1}{2} m\,v^2,

solving for GE in the formula above gives:

GE = ME - KE = ME - \frac{1}{2} m\,v^2,  which agrees with option C
