A stone with a mass of 0.100kg rests on a frictionless, horizontal surface. A bullet of mass 2.50g traveling horizontally at 500

m/s strikes the stone and rebounds horizontally at right angles to its original direction with a speed of 300m/s.
A) Compute the magnitude of the velocity of the stone after it is struck.
B) Compute the direction of the velocity of the stone after it is struck. (degrees from the initial direction of the bullet)

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that:

mass of stone (M) = 0.100 kg

mass of bullet (m) = 2.50 g = 2.5  ×10 ⁻³ kg

initial velocity of stone (u_{stone}) = 0 m/s

Initial velocity of bullet (u_{bullet}) = (500 m/s)i

Speed of the bullet after collision (v_{bullet}) = (300 m/s) j

Suppose we represent (v_{stone}) to be the velocity of the stone after the truck, then:

From linear momentum, the law of conservation can be applied which is expressed as:

m*u_{bullet} + M*{u_{stone}}= mv_{bullet}+Mv_{stone}

(2.50*10^{-3} \ kg) (500)i+0 = (2.50*10^{-3} \ kg)(300 \ m/s)j + (0.100 \ kg)v_{stone}

(2.50*10^{-3} \ kg) (500)i- (2.50*10^{-3} \ kg)(300 \ m/s)j=  (0.100 \ kg)v_{stone}

v_{stone}= (1.25\  kg.m/s)i-(0.75\ kg m/s)j

v_{stone}= (12.5\  m/s)i-(7.5\ m/s)j

∴

The magnitude now is:

v_{stone}=\sqrt{ (12.5\  m/s)^2-(7.5\ m/s)^2}

\mathbf{v_{stone}= 14.6 \ m/s}

Using the tangent of an angle to determine the direction of the velocity after the struck;

Let θ represent the direction:

\theta = tan^{-1} (\dfrac{-7.5}{12.5})

\mathbf{\theta = 30.96^0 \ below \ the \ horizontal\ level}

Can a light bulb work without energy transfer.
Scrat [10]

Answer:Energy cannot be created or destroyed. It can be stored, or it can be transferred i.e. from a hot object to a cool object by conduction, convection or radiation.

A bar of length L = 8 ft and midpoint D is falling so that, when θ = 27°, ∣∣v→D∣∣=18.5 ft/s , and the vertical acceleration of p
777dan777 [17]

Answer:

alpha=53.56rad/s

a=5784rad/s^2

Explanation:

First of all, we have to compute the time in which point D has a velocity of v=23ft/s (v0=0ft/s)

v=v_0+at\\\\t=\frac{v}{a}=\frac{(23\frac{ft}{s})}{32.17\frac{ft}{s^2}}=0.71s

Now, we can calculate the angular acceleration  (w0=0rad/s)

\theta=\omega_0t +\frac{1}{2}\alpha t^2\\\alpha=\frac{2\theta}{t^2}

\alpha=\frac{27}{(0.71s)^2}=53.56\frac{rad}{s^2}

with this value we can compute the angular velocity

\omega=\omega_0+\alpha t\\\omega = (53.56\frac{rad}{s^2})(0.71s)=38.02\frac{rad}{s}

and the tangential velocity of point B, and then the acceleration of point B:

v_t=\omega r=(38.02\frac{rad}{s})(4)=152.11\frac{ft}{s}\\a_t=\frac{v_t^2}{r}=\frac{(152.11\frac{ft}{s})^2}{4ft}=5784\frac{rad}{s^2}

hope this helps!!
