A 5.00-g bullet moving with an initial speed of v = 400 m/s is fired into and passes through a 1.00-kg block as shown in Figure P8.57.

The block moves d = 5.00 cm to the right after impact before being brought to rest by the spring. Find (a) the speed at which the bullet emerges from the block and (b) the amount of initial kinetic energy of the bullet that is converted into internal energy in the bullet-block system during the collision.

A 5.00-g bullet moving with an initial speed of i = 400 m/s is fired into and passes through a 1.00-kg block as shown in Figure P9.89. The block, initially at rest on a frictionless, horizontal surface, is connected to a spring with force constant 900 N/m. The block moves d = 5.00 cm to the right after impact before being brought to rest by the spring. Find (a) the speed at which the bullet emerges from the block and (b) the amount of initial kinetic energy of the bullet that is converted into internal energy in the bullet-block system during the collision.
A cannon is rigidly attached to a carriage, which can move along horizontal rails but is connected to a post by a large spring, initially unstretchcd and with force constant k = 2.00 104 N/m, as shown in Figure P8.60. The cannon fires a 200-kg projectile at a velocity of 125 m/s directed 45.0 above the horizontal. (a) Assuming that the mass of the cannon and its carriage is 5 000 kg, find the recoil speed of the cannon. (b) Determine the maximum extension of the spring. (c) Find the maximum force the spring exerts on the carriage. (d) Consider the system consisting of the cannon, carriage, and projectile. Is the momentum of this system conserved during the firing? Why or why not?
Two objects are connected by a light string passing over a light, frictionless pulley as shown in Figure P7.7. The object of mass m1 = 5.00 kg is released from rest at a height h = 4.00 m above the table. Using the isolated system model, (a) determine the speed of the object of mass m2 = 3.00 kg just as the 5.00-kg object hits the table and (b) find the maximum height above the table to which the 3.00-kg object rises.
The coefficient of friction between the block of mass ml = 3.00 kg and the surface in Figure P7.22 is k = 0.400. The system starts from rest. What is the speed of the ball of mass, m2 = 5.00 kg when it has fallen a distance h = 1.50 m? Figure P7.22
Two gliders are set in motion on a horizontal air track. A spring of force constant k is attached to the back end of the second glider. As shown in Figure P8.48, the first glider, of mass m1, moves to the right with speed v1, and the second glider, of mass m2, moves more slowly to the right with speed v2. When m1 collides with the spring attached to m2, the spring compresses by a distance xmax, and the gliders then move apart again. In terms of v1, v2, m1, m2, and k, find (a) the speed rat maximum compression, (b) the maximum compression xmax, and (c) the velocity of each glider after m1 has lost contact with the spring.
A 6 000-kg freight car rolls along rails with negligible friction. The car is brought to rest by a combination of two coiled springs as illustrated in Figure P6.27 (page 188). Both springs are described by Hookes law and have spring constants k1 = 1 600 N/m and k2, = 3 400 N/m. After the first spring compresses a distance of 30.0 cm, the second spring acts with the first to increase the force as additional compression occurs as shown in the graph. The car comes to rest 50.0 cm after first contacting the two-spring system. Find the cars initial speed.
Three runaway train cars are moving on a frictionless, horizontal track in a railroad yard as shown in Figure P11.73. The first car, with mass m1 = 1.50 103 kg, is moving to the right with speed v1 = 10.0 m /s; the second car, with mass m2 = 2.50 103 kg, is moving to the left with speed v2 = 5.00 m/s, and the third car, with mass m3 = 1.20 103 kg, is moving to the left with speed v3 = 8.00 m /s. The three railroad cars collide at the same instant and couple, forming a train of three cars. a. What is the final velocity of the train cars immediately after the collision? b. Would the answer to part (a) change if the three cars did not collide at the same instant? Explain. FIGURE P11.73

A block of mass m1 = 4.00 kg initially at rest on top of a frictionless, horizontal table is attached by a lightweight string to a second block of mass m2 = 3.00 kg hanging vertically from the edge of the table and a distance h = 0.450 m above the floor (Fig. P8.77). If the edge of the table is assumed to be frictionless, what is the speed with which the first block leaves the edge of the table?
