A 4.30 g bullet moving at 943 m/s strikes a 730 g wooden block at rest on a frictionless surface. The bullet emerges, traveling

in the same direction with its speed reduced to 484 m/s. (a) What is the resulting speed of the block? (b) What is the speed of the bullet-block center of mass?

Answer:

(a)2.7 m/s

(b) 5.52 m/s

Explanation:

The total of the system would be conserved as no external force is acting on it.

Initial momentum = final momentum

⇒(4.30 g × 943 m/s) + (730 g × 0) = (4.30 g × 484 m/s) + (730 g × v)

⇒ 730 ×v = (4054.9 - 2081.2) =1973.7

⇒v=2.7 m/s

Thus, the resulting speed of the block is 2.7 m/s.

(b) since, the momentum is conserved, the speed of the bullet-block center of mass would be constant.

V_{COM} = \frac{m_b}{m_b+m_{bl}}v_{bi}=\frac{4.30}{4.30+730}\times 943 m/s = 5.52 m/s

Thus, the speed of the bullet-block center of mass is 5.52 m/s.

The components of a 10.8-meters-per-second velocity at an angle of 34.° above the horizontal are
Kisachek [45]

Answer:

6.0 m/s vertical and 9.0 m/s horizontal

Explanation:

For the vertical component, we use the formula:

  • Sin(34°) = <em>y</em> / 10.8

Then we <u>solve for </u><u><em>y</em></u>:

  • 0.559 = <em>y</em> / 10.8
  • <em>y </em>= 6.0

And for the horizontal component, we use the formula:

  • Cos(34°) = <em>x</em> / 10.8

Then we <u>solve for </u><u><em>x</em></u><u>:</u>

  • 0.829 = <em>x</em> / 10.8
  • <em>y </em>= 9.0

So the answer is " 6.0 m/s vertical and 9.0 m/s horizontal".
