A wooden block of mass Mresting on a frictionless horizontal surface is attached to a rigid rod of length land of negligible mass, as shown in the figure to the right.The rod is pivoted at the other end. A bullet of mass mtraveling parallel to the horizontal surface and normal to the rod with speed vhits the block and becomes embedded in it.(a)What is the linear momentum of the bullet-block system?(b)What is the angular momentum of the bullet-block system?(c)Is the linear momentum conserved during the collision? Explain.(d)Is the angular momentum conserved during the collision? Explain.(b) What fraction of the original kinetic energy is lost in the collision?

ANSWER ASAP PLEASEEEE A block with a mass of 0.85 kg rests on a horizontal, frictionless surface and is attached to an unstretched spring of length 20 cm. The spring constant of the spring is 9.5 x 103 N/m. The spring is attached to a wall at its other end. A 7.50-grams, 9-mm-diameter bullet is fired into the block at a speed of 350 m/s and embeds itself in the block. The system now starts oscillating. A. Treat the collision...

A small block on a frictionless, horizontal surface has a mass of 2.70×10−2 kg . It is attached to a massless cord passing through a hole in the surface (Figure 1). The block is originally revolving at a distance of 0.300 m from the hole with an angular speed of 2.33 rad/s . The cord is then pulled from below, shortening the radius of the circle in which the block revolves to 0.150 m. Model the block as a particle....

A 12.0-g bullet is fired horizontally into a 116-g wooden block that is initially at rest on a frictionless horizontal surface and connected to a spring having spring constant 151 N/m. The bullet becomes embedded in the block. If the bullet-block system compresses the spring by a maximum of 81.0 cm, what was the speed of the bullet at impact with the block?

You shoot a 0.0050-kg bullet into a 2.0-kg wooden block at rest on a horizontal surface. After hitting dead center on a hard knot that runs through the block horizontally, the bullet pushes out the knot. It takes the bullet 1.0 ms to travel through the block, and as it does so, it experiences an x component of acceleration of -4.8× 10^5 m/s2. After the bullet pushes the knot out, the knot and bullet together have an x component of...

A bullet with mass m1 = 3.00 g is fired into a wooden block of mass m2 = 1.00 kg, that hangs like a pendulum. The bullet is embedded in the block (complete inelastic collision). The block (with the bullet embedded in it) goes h = 30.0 cm high after collision. Calculate the speed of the bullet before it hit the block.
