Here we apply momentum conservation of system and find the final velocity of block just after impact. Then apply Newton's law to find deceleration of block. Using kinematics equation we find distance travelled by block.
A 128g block sits at rest on a level surface. There is a coefficient of kinetic...
3. A block of mass 3m sits at rest on a horizontal, frictionless surface. Suddenly another block with mass m comes sliding in from the left with speed vo to the right. The blocks collide and stick together. Determine the speed of the blocks after the collision.
If the horizontal surface has a coefficient of kinetic friction
μk=0.500, what is the maximum compression of the spring?
An 8.0-9 bullet is shot into a 5.0-kg block, at rest on a frictionless horizontal surface (see the figure). The bullet remains lodged in the block and the bullet-block system moves to the right with speed V. The bullet-block system moves into an ideal massless spring and compresses it by 8.7 cm. The spring constant of the spring is 1200 N/m....
A 98.0 g wooden block is initially at rest on a rough horizontal surface when a 12.2 g bullet is fired horizontally into (but does not go through) it. After the impact, the block–bullet combination slides 6.5 m before coming to rest. If the coefficient of kinetic friction between block and surface is 0.750, determine the speed of the bullet (in m/s) immediately before impact.
A 716 g wooden block is initially at rest on a rough horizontal surface when a 16.2 g bullet is fired horizontally into (but does not go through) it. After the impact, the block-bullet combination slides 6.50 m before coming to rest. If the coefficient of kinetic friction between block and surface is 0.750, determine the speed of the bullet immediately before impact. _____m/s
A block of mass m1 sits on top of a larger block of mass2 which sits on a flat surface. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the upper and the lower blocks is u1, and that between the lower block and the flat surface is u2. A horizontal force F pushes against the upper block, causing it to slide; the friciton force between the blocks then cause the lower block to slide also. Find the acceleration of the upper block...
A 101 g wooden block is initially at rest on a rough horizontal surface when a 11.2 g bullet is fired horizontally into (but does not go through) it. After the impact, the block-bullet combination slides 6.5 m before coming to rest. If the coefficient of kinetic friction between block and surface is 0.750, determine the speed of the bullet (in m/s) immediately before impact. m/s
A small wooden block with mass 1.00 kg is suspended from the lower end of a light cord that is 1.50 m long. The block is initially at rest. A bullet with mass 20.0 gr is fired at the block with a horizontal velocity vo. The bullet stikes the block and become embeded in it. After the collision the combined object swings on the end of the cord. When the block has risen a vertical height of 0.500 m, the...
A 109 g wooden block is initially at rest on a rough horizontal surface when a 13.0 g bullet is fired horizontally into (but does not go through) it. After the impact, the block–bullet combination slides 6.5 m before coming to rest. If the coefficient of kinetic friction between block and surface is 0.750, determine the speed of the bullet (in m/s) immediately before impact. Can you please explain how to get the answer/why?
A 9.0-g bullet is fired into a 160-g block of wood at rest on a horizontal surface. After impact, the block slides 7.80 m before coming to rest. If the coefficient of friction between the block and the surface is 0.430, what is the speed of the bullet before impact?
A block of mass M is pulled over a rough horizontal surface. The block has a coefficient of kinetic friction with the surface of p. The block is subject to the normal force, the friction force, the force of gravity, and a force from a rope of magnitude T which pulls up and to the right at an angle of 0 with the horizontal. The box was initially travelling to the right at speed v = 1.3" If M =9.7kg,...
