A 2.00-kg particle has a velocity (2.00i3.00j)m/s, and a 3.00-kg particle has a velocity (1.00i+6.00j)m/s. Find (a) the velocity of the center of mass and (b) the total momentum of the system.
A ballistic pendulum is used to measure the speed of bullets. It comprises a heavy block of wood of mass M suspended by two long cords. A bullet of mass m is fired into the block horizontally. The block, with the bullet embedded in it, swings upward (Fig. P10.70). The center of mass of the combination rises through a vertical distance h before coming to rest momentarily. In a particular experiment, a bullet of mass 40.0 g is fired into a wooden block of mass 10.0 kg. The blockbullet combination is observed to rise to a maximum height of 20.0 cm above the blocks initial height. a. What is the initial speed of the bullet? b.
