**Projectile Motion and Explosion of a Shell**A shell is launched with an initial velocity \(\vec{v}_0\) of 25 m/s at an angle of \(\theta_0 = 63^\circ\) relative to the horizontal. At the peak of its trajectory, the shell undergoes an explosion, splitting into two equal-mass fragments. One fragment comes to an immediate stop after the explosion and falls vertically. The task is to determine the horizontal distance from the launch point to the landing point of the other fragment, assuming a level surface and negligible air resistance.**Illustration Explanation:**The diagram below the explanation shows a projectile path curved upwards, representing the motion of the shell. The initial launch velocity \(\vec{v}_0\) is indicated by a pink arrow making an angle \(\theta_0\) with the horizontal. At the apex of the trajectory, the shell explodes, and the diagram illustrates this event with a small explosion icon.- The fragment that stops immediately post-explosion is shown dropping directly downward.- The other fragment continues along a new path away from the explosion point.By using principles of conservation of momentum and the properties of projectile motion, one can calculate the distance the second fragment covers from the gun's position.

A shell is shot with an initial velocity 0 of 25 m/s, at an angle of 80 = 63° with the horizontal. At the top of the trajectory, the shell explodes into two fragments of equal mass (see the figure). One fragment, whose speed immediately after the explosion is zero, falls vertically. How far from the gun does the other fragment land, assuming that the terrain is level and that air drag is negligible? Explosion

The pendulum apparatus in the video has a total mass of 578 grams. The pendulum rod has a small mass of 20 grams so you can treat all the mass of the pendulum as if it were hanging at the end which is called the “bob”. The mass of the rod should be taken into account in determining the center of mass of the apparatus which is 71.3 cm (not the length of the pendulum). A marble which hass a mass of 10 g is fired at the pendulum bob which has clay on it which allows the marble to stick to it. Derive a formula for measuring the velocity of the marble (vm) as a function of the mass of the marble mm, the mass of the marble/bob mmb and the velocity of the marble and bob vmb using the conservation of momentum.

If the ball's initial speed before impact is 13.2 m/s, what is the tension in the rope after the collision? 0.30 m
Two spheres collide on a horizontal surface (all velocities, before and after the collision, are in the x-y plane). 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?

1. Physics Problem: The ballistic pendulum is a device used to measure the speed of a projectile, such as a bullet. The projectile, of mass m, is fired into a large block of mass M, which is suspended like a pendulum (see the Figure below). As a result of the collision, the pendulum and projectile together swing up to a maximum height h. Determine the relationship between the initial horizontal speed of the projectile, vo, and the maximum height h. Determine the percentage energy loss in the inelastic collision. 2. The ballistic pendulum device will be demonstrated in class. 3. Fire the ballistic pendulum five times and record the pendulum's maximum height after each round. 4. Remove the pendulum arm from the ballistic pendulum. Mass the pendulum arm and the projectile separately. 5. Determine the average speed and the statistical error (standard deviation).
