A ballistic pendulum malfunctions, and the bullet collides elastically with the pendulum. The bullet has a mass of 5 grams and a speed of 100 m/s. The pendulum has a mass of 2 kg and a length of 0.5 m. To what angle (from vertical) does the pendulum swing?
1. A 35 g bullet is fired into the bob of a ballistic pendulum of mass 4.75 kg. When the bob is at its maximum height, the string makes an angle of 55 with the vertical. The length of the pendulum is 4.0 m. Find the speed of the bullet before impact. (Hint: Consider Momentum and Energy Conservation)
A 10.0 g rifle bullet is fired with a speed of 370 m/s into a ballistic pendulum with mass 7.00 kg , suspended from a cord 70.0 cm long. A) Compute the initial kinetic energy of the bullet; B) Compute the kinetic energy of the bullet and pendulum immediately after the bullet becomes embedded in the pendulum. C) Compute the vertical height through which the pendulum rises.
Find the initial sped of the bullet, v1i The ballistic pendulum is a device used to measure the speed of a fast-moving projectile such a bullet. The bullet is fired into a large block of wood suspended from some light wires. The bullet is stopped by the block, and the entire system swings up to a height h. it possible to obtain the initial speed of the bullet by measuring h and the two masses. As an example of the...
A bullet of mass 3.3 g strikes a ballistic pendulum of mass 1.3kg. The center of mass of the pendulum rises a vertical distance of6.6 cm. Assuming that the bullet remains embedded in the pendulum,calculate the bullet's initial speed.
A bullet of mass 8 g is fired into a 1.2 kg ballistic pendulum (a block of wood acting as the pendulum bob of a thin metal arm attached to a low friction pivot point) that is initially at rest. The bullet exits the block of wood with a speed of 180 m/s and the wooden block swings from its lowest point to a maximum height of 9.2 cm above that location. Determine the velocity of the bullet before it...
simple way to measure the speed of a bullet is with a ballistic pendulum, which consists of a wooden block of mass m into which a bullet of mass m, is shot. The block is suspended from two cables, each of length L. Assume that the time the bullet takes to come to rest (that is, the bullet is moving at the same speed as the block) is negligibly Small. The impact of the bullet causes the block and embedded...
A ballistic pendulum, with a length of 1.5m and a mass of 3.0kg, is struck by a bullet (m=15g) and deflected to an angle of 170 with the vertical. What was the initial speed of the bullet?
A ballistic pendulum, with a length of 1.5m and a mass of 3.0kg, is struck by a bullet (m=15g) and deflected to an angle of 170 with the vertical. What was the initial speed of the bullet?
A bullet of mass 4.5 g strikes a ballistic pendulum of mass 1.7 kg. The center of mass of the pendulum rises a vertical distance of 6.3 cm. Assuming that the bullet remains embedded in the pendulum, calculate the bullet's initial speed.
