A rifle bullet with mass 8.00 g and initial horizontal velocity 280 m/s strikes and embeds itself in a block with mass 0.992 kg
anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

0.4113772 s

Explanation:

Given the following :

Mass of bullet (m1) = 8g = 0.008kg

Initial horizontal Velocity (u1) = 280m/s

Mass of block (m2) = 0.992kg

Maxumum distance (x) = 15cm = 0.15m

Recall;

Period (T) = 2π√(m/k)

According to the law of conservation of momentum : (inelastic Collison)

m1 * u1 = (m1 + m2) * v

Where v is the final Velocity of the colliding bodies

0.008 * 280 = (0.008 + 0.992) * v

2.24 = 1 * v

v = 2.24m/s

K. E = P. E

K. E = 0.5mv^2

P.E = 0.5kx^2

0.5(0.992 + 0.008)*2.24^2 = 0.5*k*(0.15)^2

0.5*1*5.0176 = 0.5*k*0.0225

2.5088 = 0.01125k

k = 2.5088 / 0.01125

k = 223.00444 N/m

Therefore,

Period (T) = 2π√(m/k)

T = 2π√(0.992+0.008) / 233.0444

T = 2π√0.0042910

T = 2π * 0.0655059

T = 0.4113772 s

A rifle fires a 2.01 10-2-kg pellet straight upward, because the pellet rests on a compressed spring that is released when the t
Zina [86]

Answer:

The value of spring constant is 266.01 \frac{N}{m}

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of pellet m = 2.01 \times 10^{-2} kg

Height difference of pellet rise h_{f} - h_{o} = 6.03 m

Spring compression x = 9.45 \times 10^{-2} m

From energy conservation law,

Spring potential energy is stored into potential energy,

  mg(h_{f} -h_{o})  = \frac{1}{2} kx^{2}

Where k = spring constant, g = 9.8 \frac{m}{s^{2} }

  k = \frac{2mg(h_{f} -h_{o} )}{x^{2} }

  k = \frac{2 \times 9.8 \times 6.03\times 2.01 \times 10^{-2} }{(9.45\times 10^{-2} )^{2} }

  k = 266.01 \frac{N}{m}

Therefore, the value of spring constant is 266.01 \frac{N}{m}

After an ice storm, ice falls from one of the top floors of a 65-story building. The ice falls freely under the influence of gra
adell [148]

Answer:

The correct answer is a) The kinetic energy of the ice increases by equal amounts for equal distances.

Explanation:

The law of conservation states that the energy cannot be created nor be destroyed but can be converted from one form to another.Before the ice even starts falling we already know that it possesses energy in the form of potential energy given by P=mgh where m is the mass of the ice , g is the acceleration due to gravity and h is the height of the ice above the ground whatever that may be, since a number is not given here.As the ice falls the energy is converted from potential energy to kinetic energy. We notice one thing about the equation for the potential energy P , which is that it is not only directly proportional to h but also is linear in h as well(which is the main reason why a) is correct) which means that if the ice drops by 1 meter the potential energy it will have lost would be ΔPE=mgΔh=-mg, where Δh is the change in its height which is 1 meter here.And according to the principle of conservation of energy this energy must be converted to kinetic energy so the ΔKE=-ΔPE=mg, and this process repeats and for each meter it falls, it picks up the same amount of kinetic energy equaling mg(which is the same as the loss in PE per each meter of fall). So a 2 meter decrease in height will result in an increase in KE of 2mg, a 3 meter decrease in height will result in an increase in KE of 3mg. gain in kinetic energy only depends on the drop in height, which is true irrespective of where the ice might happen to be in its journey close to the top or the bottom. So the drop in height of lets say x at any point in the journey will result in the same increase in KE = ΔKE = mgx. Which proves part a) to be correct.

a 700k/g race car slowed down from 30m/s to 15m/s what is the impulse and what was the average force applied by the brakes
posledela
So impulse is a change in momentum.

Mass*(final velocity - initial velocity)

I dont think you will be able to find the average force with the given info because you need to know the time it takes for the car to slow down.
