What is the average momentum of an avalanche that moves a 40-cm-thick layer of snow over an area of 100 m by 500 m over a distance of 1 km down a hill in 5.5 s? Assume a density of 350kg/m3 for the snow.
Next up on this adventure, shooting bullets into conveniently shaped pendulum systems to have a setup for a ballistic pendulum. In this case, a projectile, (m = 0.50kg) is fired into a large block of wood of mass (m = 20 kg) suspended like a pendulum. As a result of this inelastic collision, the pendulum and projectile together swing up to a height of 10m. What was the initial speed of the bullet?
