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)}

Two dump trucks each have a mass of 1,500 kg. The distance of the dump truck
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

6.00 x 10⁻⁸N

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of each dump trucks  = 1500kg

Distance between them  = 50m

Unknown:

New gravitational force between them = ?

Solution:

From Newton's law of universal gravitation,

        F = \frac{G m1 m2}{r^{2} }  

F is the gravitational force

G is the universal gravitation constant

m is the mass

r is the distance

           F  = \frac{6.67 x 10^{-11} x 1500  x 1500}{50^{2} }    = 6.00 x 10⁻⁸N

If a 80kg diver jumps off of a 5 m high dive into a regulation diving pool, how much should the temperature of the pool go up?
Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

The answer cannot be determined.

Explanation:

The energy of the diver when he hits the pool will be equal to its potential energy mgh, and for the temperature of the pool to rise up, this energy has to be converted into the heat energy of the pool.

The change in temperature {\Delta}T then will be

{\Delta}T=\frac{{\Delta}Q}{mc} .

Where m is the mass of water in the pool, c is the specific heat capacity of water, and {\Delta}Q is the added heat which in this case is the energy of the diver.

Since we do not know the mass of the water in the pool, we cannot make this calculation.
