Question
A 9.00 g bullet is fired horizontally into a 1.20 kg wooden block resting on a horizontal surface. The coefficient of kinetic friction between block and surface is 0.20. The bullet remains embedded in the block, which is observed to slide 0.390 m along the surface before stopping.
What was the initial speed of the bullet?
Express your answer with the appropriate units.

Throughout this problem, assume that all forces aside from those exerted by the spheres themselves are negligible (at least in comparison). Sphere A has a mass of 0.65 grams. It has an initial speed of 6.0 m/s and an initial velocity that is oriented at an angle of θ A i = 28 degrees below the x-axis. Sphere B has a mass of 0.45 grams. It has an initial speed of 6.5 m/s and an initial velocity that is oriented at an angle of θ B i = 35 degrees above the x-axis. After the collision, sphere A has a speed of 3.5 m/s and a velocity that is directed at an angle of θ A f = 16 degrees above the x-axis. What is the final speed, in units of meters per second, of sphere B?arrow_forward

Ktrans,/ = 180 X J Ktrans,f = 260 X J (c) Compare the two results and explain why there is a difference. O The Energy Principle isn't valid for an inelastic collision. The internal energy of the block-bullet system has increased.

If the block collides with the sphere with a velocity of 5.00 m/s, as shown in the figure, and the coefficient of restitution is e = 0.800, determine the following. Neglect friction and air resistance. VB= 5.00 m/s Ө r: 6.00m 9-7-- ↓ 3. To solve for the maximum height, H, which of the following concepts cannot be used? The kinetic energy of the sphere just after its collision with the block is equal to its potential energy at the maximum height, H. The kinetic energy of the sphere just after its collision with the block is equal to its kinetic energy at the maximum height, H. The velocity of the sphere at the maximum height is zero. The work done by gravity on the sphere will DECREASE the sphere's kinetic energy. 1:035111arrow_forward
