Answer:
195.168 m
Explanation:
To find the magnitude of the vector you can use the Pythagorean Theorem since you have the height and base and the vector is really just the hypotenuse
Pythagorean Theorem:
Plug values in
Simplify
Add the two values
Take the square root of both sides
The emerging velocity of the bullet is <u>71 m/s.</u>
The bullet of mass <em>m</em> moving with a velocity <em>u</em> has kinetic energy. When it pierces the block of wood, the block exerts a force of friction on the bullet. As the bullet passes through the block, work is done against the resistive forces exerted on the bullet by the block. This results in the reduction of the bullet's kinetic energy. The bullet has a speed <em>v</em> when it emerges from the block.
If the block exerts a resistive force <em>F</em> on the bullet and the thickness of the block is <em>x</em> then, the work done by the resistive force is given by,
This is equal to the change in the bullet's kinetic energy.
If the thickness of the block is reduced by one-half, the bullet emerges out with a velocity v<em>₁.</em>
Assuming the same resistive forces to act on the bullet,
Divide equation (2) by equation (1) and simplify for v<em>₁.</em>
Thus the speed of the bullet is 71 m/s
