Vector Mechanics For Engineers
- Three blocks (1,2,3) of mass 3.00 kg, 2.00 kg, 1.00 kg sit block 1 block 2 block 3 linearly 10.0 cm apart from each other on a frictionless surface. •> 3kg A 25 g bullet is shot at the first block, it travels through the first block, and embeds itself into the second block (without falling over) which then collides into the third block. a. Assuming the final collision is elastic, and the third block has a final velocity of 5.00 m/s, what is the velocity of block 2 just before it collides into block 3? b. What is the velocity of the bullet before it embeds itself into block 2? c. Assuming the bullet slowed down by only 10% while it travelled through block 1, what was the speed of block 1 after the bullet traveled through it?arrow_forward1. Space probes may be separated from their launchers by exploding bolts. (They bolt away from one another.) Suppose a 4100-kg satellite uses this method to separate from the 1200-kg remains of its launcher, and that 3000 J of kinetic energy is supplied to the two parts. Assume that the satellite and launcher are at rest before separation and the direction of the satellite's velocity after separation is positive. Gravity is negligible compared to the force of explosion. Consider: Let the subscripts i and f denote the initial and final velocities and the subscripts s and/ denote the satellite and the launcher, respectively. How many knowns are there and how many unknowns? satellite launcher Before launch Vsf satellite launcher V₁ After launcharrow_forwardA 45 g bullet is fired with a velocity of 400 m/s at an angle ø = 5 ° into a square panel whose sides measure b = 200 mm and has a mass of 9 kg.

Block 1 of mass m, slides from rest along a frictionless ramp from height h = 1.60 m and then collides (completely inelasticly) with stationary block 2 of mass m2 = 3.00 m.. After the collision, the two blocks slide into a region where the coefficient of kinetic friction is µx = 0.300 and come to a stop in distance d within that region. a) What is the speed of m, when it reaches the bottom of the ramp? b) What is the speed of the combination of the two blocks after the collision? c) What is the value of distance d?arrow_forward1. Two discs sliding on a frictionless horizontal plane with opposite speeds of the same magnitude Vo collide with each other head-on.

How big is the force with which the chain acts on the ground at the moment when half of the chain is already on the ground.
