- A 33.7-g rifle bullet traveling 205. m/s buries itself in a 2.97-kg pendulum hanging on a 2.67-m-long string, which makes the pendulum swing upward in an arc. Determine how high (in m) the pendulum swings above its original position.arrow_forwardA bullet of mass m = 8.00 g is fired into a block of mass M = 240 a that is initially at rest at the edge of a table of height h = 1.00 m (see figure below). The bullet remains in the block, and after the impact the block lands d = 1.50 m from the bottom of the table. Determine the initial speed of the bullet. Use the given information to find the velocity of the block after collision with the bullet and then use conservation of momentum to find the initial speed of the bullet. m/s Need Help?
