A 1.72-kg block of soft wood is suspended by two strings from the ceiling. The wood is free to rotate in pendulum-like fashion w

hen a force is exerted upon it. A 8.50-g bullet is fired into the wood. The bullet enters the wood at 431 m/s and exits the opposite side shortly thereafter. If the wood rises to a height of 13.8 cm, then what is the exit speed of the bullet?

Answer:

Vf_{2} = 98.21 m/s                    

Explanation:

The block has a final potential energy

U = mgh

U = (1.72)(9.8)(0.138)

    = 2.3261 J

How after of the collision the block's mechanical energy is conserved, then we can calculate the block's initial velocity

     2.3261 = \frac{mv^{2} }{2}

     2.3261 = \frac{1.72v^{2} }{2}

            v = 1.6446 m/s

In the collision is conserved the lineal momentum of the system then:

m_{1}Vo_{1} + m_{2}Vo_{2} = m_{1}Vf_{1} + m_{2}Vf_{2}

(1.72)(0) + (0.0085)(431) = (1.72)(1.6446) + (0.085)Vf_{2}

3.6635 = 2.8287 + 0.0085Vf_{2}

Vf_{2} = 98.21 m/s

The quartz crystal used in an electric watch vibrates with a frequency of 32,768 Hz. What is the period of the crystal's motion?
Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

Time period, T=3.05\times 10^{-5}\ s

Explanation:

Given that,

The quartz crystal used in an electric watch vibrates with a frequency of 32,768 Hz, f = 32768 Hz

We need to find the period of the crystal's motion. The relationship between the frequency and the time period is given by :

T=\dfrac{1}{f}

T is the time period of the crystal's motion.

Time period is given by :

T=\dfrac{1}{32768}

T=3.05\times 10^{-5}\ s

So, the time period of the crystal's motion is 3.05\times 10^{-5}\ s. Hence, this is the required solution.

Y_Kistochka [10]
B.False

Einstein's vision of GR is NOT that somehow Gravity comes along and alters (indents?) some existing structure.
It is that Gravity (with its four possible sources) actually determines the entire global structure of Space-Time in which such sources are extant.
