Forensic scientists can determine the speed at which a rifle fires a bullet by shooting into...
Forensic scientists can measure the muzzle velocity of a gun by firing a bullet horizontally into a large hanging block that absorbs the bullet and swings upward.(See the figure below) The measured maximum angle of swing can be used to calculate the speed of the bullet. In one such test, a rifle fired a 4.20 g bullet intoa 2.50 kg block hanging by a thin wire 75.0 cm long, causing the block to swing upward to a maximum angle of...
Agent Arlene devised the following method of measuring the muzzle velocity of a rifle. She fires a bullet into a 4.200-kg wooden block resting on a smooth surface, and attached to a spring of spring constant k = 145.0 N/m . The bullet, whose mass is 7.750 g , remains embedded in the wooden block. She measures the maximum distance that the block compresses the spring to be 9.460 cm. Part A What is the speed v of the bullet?...
To determine the muzzle velocity of a bullet fired from a rifle, you shoot the 2.11-g bullet into a 2.49-kg wooden block. The block is suspended by wires from the ceiling and is initially at rest. After the bullet is embedded in the block, the block swings up to a maximum height of 0.635 cm above its initial position. What is the velocity of the bullet on leaving the gun’s barrel? Ans: 416.890 m/s Please explain.
1. (12 points) In an arrangement for measuring the muzzle velocity of a rifle, the bullet is fired up at a wooden mass, into which it embeds (the bullet remains in the block). The wood is blasted straight up into the air to a measured height h. The mass of the bullet is 6.48 grams and the block is 4.81 kg. The block rose a height h-42 cm into the air from its initial position. a. (5 points) Determine the...
Agent Arlene devised the following method of measuring the muzzle velocity of a rifle (the figure below). She fires a bullet into a 4.113-kg wooden block resting on a smooth surface, and attached to a spring of spring constant k = 164.0 N/m . The bullet, whose mass is 7.870 g, remains embedded in the wooden block. She measures the maximum distance that the block compresses the spring to be 9.460 cm . What is the speed v of the...
Agent Arlene devised the following method of measuring the muzzle velocity of a rifle (the figure below). She fires a bullet into a 4.126-kg wooden block resting on a smooth surface, and attached to a spring of spring constant k = 160.3 N/m . The bullet, whose mass is 7.870 g, remains embedded in the wooden block. She measures the maximum distance that the block compresses the spring to be 9.460 cm . What is the speed v of the...
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...
Agent Arlene devised the following method of measuring the muzzle velocity of a rifle (the figure below). She fires a bullet into a 4.023-kg wooden block resting on a smooth surface, and attached to a spring of spring constant k = 160.6 N/m . The bullet, whose mass is 7.870 g, remains embedded in the wooden block. She measures the maximum distance that the block compresses the spring to be9.460 cm . Part A What is the speed v of...
If you fire a bullet at a speed vi,bullet = 400 m/s into a wooden block of mass 0.2 kg, and after the bullet embeds in the wood, the velocity of the bullet and block together is 7.8 m/s. What is the mass of the bullet? 4 g 6 g 2 g 0.2 kg What is conservation of momentum a special instance of? Newton's 2nd law, the momentum principle Newton's 1st law, the inertia principle Newton's 3rd law, the reciprocity...
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...
