A ball of mass 0.45 kg is fired with velocity 120 m/s into the barrel of a spring gun of mass 2.0 kg initially at rest on a frictionless surface. The ball sticks in the barrel at the point of maximum compression of the spring. No energy is lost to friction. What fraction of the ball's initial kinetic energy is stored in the spring?
A 11 g bullet is fired into the bob of a ballistic pendulum of mass 1.3 kg. When the bob is at its maximum height, the strings make an angle of 60° with the vertical. The length of the pendulum is 2.3 m. Find the speed of the bullet. m/s eBook
A mass and a spring A 3.4 kg block slides 3.3 m across a frictionless, horizontal table at 2.2 m/s, moving left. Once the block hits the spring, it sticks, compressing the spring 70 cm before the block stops and reverses direction. The block then continues to bounce back and forth, still attached to the spring. The spring constant is 33.6 N/m. Ignore air resistance. 2.2 m/s 3.3 m 70 cm 1. Plot the position of the block as a function of time, with t = 0 when the block first hits the spring.

An 8.0-g bullet is suddenly shot into a 4.0-kg block that is at rest on a frictionless horizontal surface, as shown in the figure. The bullet remains lodged in the block. The block then runs into a spring bumper and compresses it by 3.7 cm. The force constant (spring constant) of the spring is 2500 N/m. What was the initial speed v of the bullet?
A small ball of mass mb = 0.050 kg is projected into a pendulum of mass Mp = 0.200 kg in a ballistic pendulum experiment. How fast does the ball need to go in order to get the pendulum to swing up to a height of h = 0.25 m above its original position? 2.21 m/s 0.111 m/s 11.1 m/s 0.553 m/s
A 1.2 kg glider moving at 3.0 m/s [right] undergoes an elastic head-on collision with a glider of equal mass moving at 3.0 m/s [left].

A 1.5-kg block is attached to the end of a 1.9-m string to form a pendulum. The pendulum is released from rest when the string is horizontal. At the lowest point of its swing when it is moving horizontally, the block is hit by a 0.02-kg bullet moving horizontally in the opposite direction. The bullet remains in the block and causes the block to come to rest at the low point of its swing. What was the magnitude of the bullet's velocity just before hitting the block?

The block, initially stationary on a frictionless horizontal surface, is connected to a spring with a spring constant k = 900. N/m, If the block moves 5.00 cm to the right after impact find (a) the speed at which the projectile emerges from the block and (b) the energy lost in the collision.

A 5kg projectile having a speed of 20 m/s was launched at the horizontal ground, 6.972 meters (horizontal distance) away from the nearest vertical wall of the box. When the projectile hit the vertical side of the box, it rebound at a speed of -11.143 m/s and the box developed a speed of 5.140 m/s. At what angle was the projectile launched?
A 0.053 kg bullet is fired into a 5.38 kg wood block, which is attached to a pendulum. At the instant after they collide inelastically, the total mechanical energy of the system is 24.1 J. At the top of the swing of the pendulum, the block and bullet have risen to a maximum height, h, and now have a velocity of v = 0 m/s Use conservation of energy to find the maximum height, h, of the block + bullet system.
