Question 12. As part: of target practise for new recruits at the Bomana Police College, a cadet me tasked to shoot a blopck that was held by a horizontal -thin sheet directly above him. If the builet nas a mass of 24.0 g and a speed of 310m/s on impact with the block, how high will the block rise into the air after the bullet becomes embedded in it? The block is 4.0kg

A tennis ball of mass 57.0 g is held just above a basketball of mass 590 g. With their centers vertically aligned, both balls are released from rest at the same time, falling through a distance of 1.20 m, as shown in Figure P6.45. (a) Find the magnitude of the basketballs velocity the instant before the basketball reaches the ground. (b) Assume that an elastic collision with the ground instantaneously reverses the velocity of the basketball so that it collides with the tennis ball just above it. To what height does the tennis ball rebound? Figure P6.45
In an elastic collision, a 400-kg bumper car collides directly from behind with a second, identical bumper car that is traveling in the same direction. The initial speed of the leading bumper car is 5.60 m/s and that of the trailing car is 6.00 m/s. Assuming that the mass of the drivers is much, much less than that of the bumper cars, what are their final speeds?
Water from a fire hose is directed horizontally against a wall at a rate of 50.0 kg/s and a speed of 42.0 m/s. Calculate the force exerted on the wall, assuming the water’s horizontal momentum is reduced to zero.
(a) Does the center of mass of a rocket in free space accelerate? Explain. (b) Can the speed of a rocket exceed the exhaust speed of the fuel? Explain.
A projectile of mass 2.0 kg is fired in the air at an angle of 40.0 to the horizon at a speed of 50.0 m/s. At the highest point in its flight, the projectile breaks into three parts of mass 1.0 kg, 0.7 kg, and 0.3 kg. The 1.0-kg part falls straight down after breakup with an initial speed of 10.0 m/s, the 0.7-kg part moves in the original forward direction, and the 0.3-kg part goes straight up. Launch a. Find the speeds of the 0.3-kg and 0.7-kg pieces immediately after the break-up. b. How high from the break-up point does the 0.3-kg piece go before coming to rest? c. Where does the 0.7-kg piece land relative to where it was fired from?
What exhaust speed is required to accelerate a rocket in deep space from 800 m/s to 1000 m/s in 5.0 s if the total rocket mass is 1200 kg and the rocket only has 50 kg of fuel left?
A proton traveling at 3.0106m/s scatters elastically from an initially stationary alpha particle and is deflected at an angle of 85 with respect to its initial velocity. Given that the alpha particle has four times the mass of the proton, what percent of its initial kinetic energy does the proton retain after the collision?
Two blocks of masses m1 = 2.00 kg and m2 = 4.00 kg are released from rest at a height of h = 5.00 m on a friction less track as shown in Figure P9.77. When they meet on the level portion of the track, they undergo a head-on, elastic collision. Determine the maximum heights to which m, and rise on the curved portion of the track after the collision. \

A 10 kg projectile was launched at the horizontal ground at a velocity of 20 m/s, 10 degrees with respect to the horizontal. The projectile hit a 30 kg box on top of a table at O. 177 seconds. If the box developed a speed of 5.140 rn/s after impact, what is the speed of the projectile after the collision?provide fbd
A device called a ballistic pendulum is used to calculate the muzzle velocity of a bullet. What will be the muzzle velocity of a projectile of mass 20.5g that is fired into a 750g block and imbeds itself, causing the block, which is attached to a 75-cm string, to rise to an angle of 33 degrees?
A 71 kg baseball player jumps straight up to catch a hard-hit ball. If the 140 g ball is moving horizontally at 28 m/s, and the catch is made when the ballplayer is at the highest point of his leap, what is his speed immediately after stopping the ball?
