Mechanical advantage allows you to apply a force over a short distance to increase the distance and object moves.
Hello
The bullet is moving by uniformly accelerated motion.
The initial velocity is

, the final velocity is

, and the total time of the motion is

, so the acceleration is given by
where the negative sign means that is a deceleration.
Therefore we can calculate the total distance covered by the bullet in its motion using

So, the bullet penetrates the sandbag 1.8 meters.
Answer:
d = 0.05 [m] = 50 [mm]
Explanation:
We must remember the principle of conservation of energy which tells us that energy is transformed from one way to another. For this case, the initial kinetic energy is transformed into useful work that is equal to the product of force by distance.
![E_{k}=F*d\\400 = 8000*d\\d = 0.05 [m] = 50 [mm]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=E_%7Bk%7D%3DF%2Ad%5C%5C400%20%3D%208000%2Ad%5C%5Cd%20%3D%200.05%20%5Bm%5D%20%3D%2050%20%5Bmm%5D)
Answer:
Part a)

Part b)

Explanation:
Part a)
For force conditions of two blocks we will have


now from above equations we have


now we know that


now from above equation we have


Part b)
When heavier block is removed and F = 908 N is applied at the end of the string then we have
