A wooden block of mass M resting on a frictionless, horizontal surface is attached to a rigid rod of length ℓ and of negligible

mass. The rod is pivoted at the other end. A bullet of mass m traveling parallel to the horizontal surface and perpendicular to the rod with speed v hits the block and becomes embedded in it.

Answer:

a)

mv l

b)

\frac{M }{(M + m)}

Explanation:

Complete question statement is as follows :

A wooden block of mass M resting on a friction less, horizontal surface is attached to a rigid rod of length ℓ and of negligible mass. The rod is pivoted at the other end. A bullet of mass m traveling parallel to the horizontal surface and perpendicular to the rod with speed v hits the block and becomes embedded in it.

(a) What is the angular momentum of the bullet–block system about a vertical axis through the pivot? (Use any variable or symbol stated above as necessary.)

(b) What fraction of the original kinetic energy of the bullet is converted into internal energy in the system during the collision? (Use any variable or symbol stated above as necessary.)

a)

m = mass of the bullet

v = velocity of the bullet before collision

r = distance of the line of motion of bullet from pivot = l

L = Angular momentum of the bullet-block system

Angular momentum of the bullet-block system is given as

L = m v r

L = mv l

b)

V = final velocity of bullet block combination

Using conservation of momentum

Angular momentum of bullet block combination = Angular momentum of bullet

(M + m) V l = m v l\\V =\frac{mv}{(M + m)}

K_{o} = Initial kinetic energy of the bullet

Initial kinetic energy of the bullet is given as

K_{o} = (0.5) m v^{2}

K_{f} = Final kinetic energy of bullet block combination

Final kinetic energy of bullet block combination is given as

K_{f} = (0.5) (M + m) V^{2}

Fraction of original kinetic energylost is given as

Fraction = \frac{(K_{o} - K_{f})}{K_{o}} = \frac{((0.5) m v^{2} - (0.5) (M + m) V^{2})}{(0.5) m v^{2}}

Fraction = \frac{(m v^{2} - (M + m) (\frac{mv}{(M + m)})^{2})}{m v^{2}} = \frac{(Mm v^{2} + m^{2} v^{2} - m^{2} v^{2})}{(M + m) m v^{2}}

Fraction = \frac{(Mm v^{2} + m^{2} v^{2} - m^{2} v^{2})}{(M + m) m v^{2}}\\ \frac{M }{(M + m)}

mars1129 [50]

Complete Question

The complete question is  shown on the first uploaded image  

 

Answer:

The electric field at that point is  E = 7500 \ N/C

Explanation:

From the question we are told that  

       The  radius of the inner circle is r_i  =  0.80  \ m

        The  radius of the outer circle is  r_o  =  1.20 \ m

       The  charge on the spherical shell q_n  =  -500nC  = -500*10^{-9} \ C

      The magnitude of the point charge at the center is  q_c =  + 300 nC  =  + 300 * 10^{-9} \ C

        The  position we are considering is  x =  0.60 m  from the center

Generally  the  electric field  at the distance x =  0.60 m  from the center  is mathematically represented as

                 E =  \frac{k *  q_c   }{x^2}

substituting values  

                  E =  \frac{k *  q_c   }{x^2}

where  k is  the coulomb constant with value k = 9*10^{9}  \ kg\cdot m^3\cdot s^{-4} \cdot A^{-2}.

     substituting values

                  E =  \frac{9*10^9  *  300 *10^{-9}}{0.6^2}

                 E = 7500 \ N/C

Question: Is a flame matter?<br> .<br> Claim: (Write a statement that answers the question)
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

Matter is anything that has mass and occupies space. The flame itself is a mixture of gases (vaporized fuel, oxygen, carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, water vapor, and many other things) and so is matter. <em><u>The light produced by the flame is energy, not matter.</u></em>
