Chapter 12.3, Problem 12.97P

A particle of mass m describes the parabola y = x²/4r₀ under a central force F directed toward the center of force C. Using Eq. (12.35) and Eq. (12.37′) with ε = 1, show that F is inversely proportional to the square of the distance r from the particle to the center of force and that the angular momentum per unit mass h = 2 G M r 0 .

Collision at an Angle To apply conservation of linear momentum in an inelastic collision. Two cars, both of mass m, collide and stick together. Prior to the collision, one car had been traveling north at a speed 2v, while the second was traveling in a southeastern direction at an angle ϕ with respect to the east-west direction and at a speed v. After the collision, the two-car system travels in a northeastern direction at an angle θ with respect to the north-south direction and at a speed v final. What is the angle θ (with respect to north) made by the velocity vector of the two cars after the collision? Express your answer in terms of ϕ. Your answer should contain an inverse trigonometric function.

1. A wood block of mass mw = 200 g is projected from the ground at a speed vo = 35 m/s and at an angle 60 = 50°. When at height h= 24 m the wood block was hit by a bullet of mass m = 25 g which was moving at v= 220 m/s and at an angle 6 = 70°. After the collision, the bullet embedded itself in the block and move together and land at point A on the ground. Then they move on the ground that has coefficient of kinetic friction u: = 0.5 and start to compress a horizontal spring at point B. The distance between point À and B is 18 m and the spring constant k = 3x10? N/m. Right end of the spring is fixed, and all motions are confined in x-y plane. Wood block + Bullet Bullet Wood B block (a) Was the collision between the wood block and the bullet elastic or inelastic? Explain quantitively. (b) Find the maximum height from the ground the block with the bullet reached. (c) How far is point A from the launch point of the wood block? (d) Calculate the velocity at which the block-bullet system…
