Chapter 15, Problem 38P
A ballistic pendulum consists of a 4-kg wooden block originally at rest, θ = 0°. When a 2-g bullet strikes and becomes embedded in it, it is observed that the block swings upward to a maximum angle of u = 6°. Estimate the initial speed of the bullet.

2. A block of mass m=3 kg is sliding along a frictionless inclined surface that makes an angle
of o = 30°with respect to the horizontal surface.
At the lowest points of the inclined surface, a projectile is fired at a speed of v, = 12 m/s that
makes an angle 8, = 45° with respect to the horizontal. Our aim of this problem is to find the
time when the projectile will hit the block.
e = 450
h = ?
Ro= 10 m
P= 30°
x= ?
(a) Find the time when the projectile hits the block. (Given, the initial distance between the block
and the projectile along the inclined surface at t=0 is R, = 10 m as shown in the figure)
Page 1 of 3
(b) Find the height h, where the projectile will hit the block.
(c) Now assume that the projectile hits the block at its maximum range R along the inclined
surface and the block is not sliding at all. Then find the maximum range along the inclined
surface, Rmax = ?
Hello! Can I have the solution to this question, when the mass of m is 218kg. Both parts please.
Journey through the Center of the Earth. A 1024-kg blue ball is dropped from an initial z-position of 2.3 x 106 m through the center of a planet with radius 7.6 x 106 m. If the mass of the planet is 33.9 x 1015 kg, measure the displacement of the ball at time t = 9 s?
