A bullet of mass 0.7 kg hits a block and gets stuck with it with a velocity of 30m/s. The block has a mass of 50 and it is hanging by a string of length 15m. 1. find the T of the oscillations 2. Max acceleration of object after the collision in this periodic motion. 3. How long does it take the object to come back to rest?

Answer #1

1. System is a simple pendulum.

with L = 15 m

T = 2 pi sqrt( L / g)

T= 2 pi sqrt(15/9.8) = 7.77 s ......Ans

2. w = 2 pi / T = 0.808 rad/s

Applying momentum conservtion for the collision,

(0.7 x 30) + (50 x 0) = (50 + 0.7) v

v = 0.414 m/s ...this is the maximum velocity of oscillation.


and a_max = v_max w

a_max = 0.335 m/s^2 .....Ans

3. t = T / 4 = 7.77 / 4

(time taken from mean position to extreme position)

t = 1.94 s

    A bullet of mass m = 8.65 g is fired into a block of mass M = 1.54 kg that is initially at rest on a rough surface as shown in the drawing below. (The coefficient of friction is 0.42 between the block and the surface.) The bullet ends up stuck in the block, and together they slide across the surface and come to rest. If the combined object slides D = 1.34 m across the surface before stopping, what...
