Calculate the velocity of the bullet and pendulum

Reference no: EM13673384

A 12.0-g rifle bullet is fired by a speed of 380 m/s into a ballistic pendulum with mass 6.0 kg, suspended from a cord 70.0 cm long. Calculate (a) the velocity of the bullet and pendulum immediately after the bullet becomes embedded in the pendulum, and (b) the vertical height during which the pendulum rises.

What is the retarding force due to friction : A block of mass 4.7 kg slides 20 m from rest down an inclined plane making an angle of 24 o with the horizontal. If the block takes 10 s to slide down the plane, what is the retarding force due to friction?

Magnitude of the net linear acceleration of the particle : The flywheel of a steam engine runs with a constant angular velocity of 150 rev/min. When the steam is shut off, the friction of the bearings and of the air stops the wheel in 2.2 h.

A baseball pitcher throws : A baseball pitcher throws a 44 m/s fastball. The baseball bat reverses the ball's velocity and it leaves the bat at 56 m/s. What was the average force on the 0.145 kg baseball through the contact time of 15 ms?

Calculate the velocity of the bullet and pendulum : A 12.0-g rifle bullet is fired by a speed of 380 m/s into a ballistic pendulum with mass 6.0 kg, suspended from a cord 70.0 cm long. Calculate (a) the velocity of the bullet and pendulum immediately after the bullet becomes embedded in the pendulum, ..

Minimum of light of an unknown wavelength : When light of wavelength 493 nm passes during a single slit of unknown width, the diffraction pattern displays a sixth-order maximum where the fifth minimum of light of an unknown wavelength had been observed to fall. What is the unknown wavelength?

Distributed uniformly around a thin ring of radius : A charge q is distributed uniformly around a thin ring of radius r. The ring is rotating about an axis through its center and perpendicular to its plane, at an angular speed w. What is the direction of this magnetic moment if the charge is positive?

Magnitude of the induced magnetic field at radial distances : An electric field is directed out of the page within a circular region of radius R= 3.00cm. The magnitude of the electric field is given with E= (0.500 V/m*s)(1-r/R)t, where t is in seconds and r is the radial distance (r is less than or equal to R).

Magnitude of maximum torque that such force could produce : A square, 0.66 m on a side, is mounted therefore that it can rotate about an axis that passes during the center of the square. The axis is perpendicular to the plane of the square. A force of 14.3 N lies in this plane and is applied to the square.
