A bullet with mass m = 5.21 g is moving horizontally with a speed v = 443 m/s when it strikes a block of hardened steel with mas

s M = 14.8 kg (initially at rest). The bullet bounces off the block in a perfectly elastic collision. (a) What is the speed (m/s) of the block immediately after the collision?

Answer:

0.312 m/s

Explanation:

Elastic collisions conserve momentum and kinetic energy

The velocity of the center of mass will not change. It continues at

0.00521(443) / 14.80521 = 0.155893... ≈ 0.156 m/s

To conserve kinetic energy we can think of the center of mass (CoM) as an ideal spring returning to each mass that strikes it an identical speed of collision in the opposite direction.

The CoM sees the target approach at - 0.156 and will see it depart at 0.156 m/s

A ground based observer sees the target depart at the velocity of the CoM plus the relative velocity .

v = 0.156 + 0.156  = 0.312 m/s

A 2.00-kg rock has a horizontal velocity of magnitude 12.0 m&gt;s when it is at point P in Fig. E10.35. (a) At this instant, wha
zaharov [31]

Answer:

(A) L = 115.3kgm²/s

(B) dL/dt = 94.1kgm²/s²

Explanation:

The magnitude of the angular momentum of the rock is given by the foemula

L = mvrSinθ

We have been given θ = 36.9°, m = 2.0kg, v = 12.0m/s and r = 8.0m.

Therefore L = 2.00 × 12 × 8.0 × Sin 36.9° =

115.3 kgm²/s

(B) The magnitude of the rate of angular change in momentum is given by

dL /dt = d(mvrSinθ)/dt = mgrSinθ = 2.00 × 9.8 × 8.0× Sin36.9 = 94.1kgm²/s²

The small spherical planet called "Glob" has a mass of 7.88×1018 kg and a radius of 6.32×104 m. An astronaut on the surface of G
timama [110]

The orbiting speed of the satellite orbiting around the planet Glob is 60.8m/s.

To find the answer, we need to know about the orbital velocity a satellite.

<h3>What's the expression of orbital velocity of a satellite?</h3>
  • Mathematically, orbital velocity= √(GM/r)
  • G= gravitational constant= 6.67×10^(-11) Nm²/kg², M = mass of sun , r= radius of orbit

<h3>What's the orbital velocity of the satellite in a circular orbit with a radius of 1.45×10⁵ m around the planet Glob of mass 7.88×10¹⁸ kg?</h3>
  • Here, M= 7.88×10¹⁸ kg, r= 1.45×10⁵ m
  • Orbital velocity of the orbiting satellite = √(6.67×10^(-11)×7.88×10¹⁸/1.45×10⁵)

= 60.8m/s

Thus, we can conclude that the speed of the satellite orbiting the planet Glob is 60.8m/s.

At what distance along the z-axis is the electric field strength a maximum?
Lesechka [4]
The axial field is the integration of the field from each element of charge around the ring. Because of symmetry, the field is only in the direction of the axis. The field from an element ds in the ring is 

<span>dE = (qs*ds)cos(T)/(4*pi*e0)*(x^2 + R^2) </span>

<span>where x is the distance along the axis from the plane of the ring, R is the radius of the ring, qs is the linear charge density, T is the angle of the field from the x-axis. </span>

<span>However, cos(T) = x/sqrt(x^2 + R^2) </span>

<span>so the equation becomes </span>

<span>dE = (qs*ds)*[x/sqrt(x^2 + R^2)]/(4*pi*e0)*(x^2 + R^2) </span>

<span>dE =[qs*ds/(4*pi*e0)]*x/(x^2 + R^2)^1.5 </span>

<span>Integrating around the ring you get </span>

<span>E = (2*pi*R/4*pi*e0)*x/(x^2 + R^2)^1.5 </span>

<span>E = (R/2*e0)*x*(x^2 + R^2)^-1.5 </span>

<span>we differentiate wrt x, the term R/2*e0 is a constant K, and the derivative is </span>

<span>dE/dx = K*{(x^2 + R^2)^-1.5 +x*[(-1.5)*(x^2 + R^2)^-2.5]*2x} </span>

<span>dE/dx = K*{(x^2 + R^2)^-1.5 - 3*x^2*(x^2 + R^2)^-2.5} </span>

<span>to find the maxima set this = 0, giving </span>

<span>(x^2 + R^2)^-1.5 - 3*x^2*(x^2 + R^2)^-2.5 = 0 </span>

<span>mult both side by (x^2 + R^2)^2.5 to get </span>

<span>(x^2 + R^2) - 3*x^2 = 0 </span>

<span>-2*x^2 + R^2 = 0 </span>

<span>-2*x^2 = -R^2 </span>

<span>x = (+/-)R/sqrt(2) </span>
