Explanation:
Expression for relative velocity
= 
= (.54 + .82 )c/ 
= 1.36 c / 1.4428
= .94 c
β = .94
Answer:
Solving for time :
(There are 4 formulas from linear motion. These formulas are very helpful as it allows us to prevent complicated calculations. Choose among the four that has : 1. The most constants known
2. The unknown constant that we want to solve)
s = (1/2)(u+v)t <--- one of the formulas
from linear motion
s (distance) = 0.05m
u (initial velocity) = 100m/s
v (final velocity) = 0 m/s (it stops)
t (time taken for change in velocity) = to be found
0.05 = (1/2)(100+0)t
t = 0.001 seconds
Solving for the resistant force :
Since the bullet hits the bag with an impulsive force and stops, the force that stops the bullet is the resistant force.
When the bullet stops :
F net = 0
F r = F imp
F r = (mu -mv)/t
F r = (0.01x100-0.01x0)/0.001
F r = 1/0.001
F r = 1000N
Given values:
Mass of the steel ball, m = 100 g = 0.1 kg
Height of the steel ball, h1 = 1.8 m
Rebound height, h2 = 1.25 m
a. PE= mgh
0.1 x 9.8 x 1.8 =
1.764 Joules
b. KE = PE ->
1.764 Joules
c. KE= 1/2 mv square
so v = square root 2ke/m
square root 2 x 1.764/ 0.1
= 5.93 m/s
d. KE=PE=mgh square
0.1 x 9.8 x 1.21 =
1.186 joules
velocity of rebond is square root 2x 1.186/ 0.1 = 4.87 m/s
