To determine the muzzle velocity of a bullet fired from a rifle, you shoot the 2.00-g bullet into a 2.00-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 O.500 cm above its initial position. What is the velocity of the bullet on leaving the gun's barrel?

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
