A bullet is fired through a board 10.0cm thick in such a way that the bullet’s line of motion is perpendicular to the face of the board. If the initial speed of the bullet is 4.00 x 10^2 m/s and it emerges form the side of the board with a speed of 3.00 x 10^2 m/s, find (a) the acceleration of the bullet as it passes through the board and (b) the total time the bullet is in contact with the board.

As shown in the figure below, a bullet is fired at and passes through a piece of target paper suspended by a massless string. The bullet has a mass m, a speed v before the collision with the target, and a speed (0.496)v after passing through the target. The collision is inelastic and during the collision, the amount of kinetic energy lost by the bullet and paper is equal to [(0.263)Kb BC] , that is, 0.263 of the kinetic energy...

In a ballistics test, a 23.0g bullet traveling horizontally at 1300m/s goes through a 40.0cm -thick 450kg stationary target and emerges with a speed of 900m/s . The target is free to slide on a smooth horizontal surface. How long is the bullet in the target? What average force does the bullet exert on the target? What is the target's speed just after the bullet emerges?

A bullet with a mass of 4.1g and a speed of 650m/s is fired at a block of wood with a mass of 9.6*10^2kg . The block rests on a frictionless surface, and is thin enough that the bullet passes completely through it. Immediately after the bullet exits the block, the speed of the block is 22m/s . Part A What is the speed of the bullet when it exits the block? (m/s) Part B Is the final kinetic energy...

A bullet with a mass m b = 11.5 g is fired into a block of wood at velocity v b = 265 m/s. The block is attached to a spring that has a spring constant k of 205 N/m. The block and bullet continue to move, compressing the spring by 35.0 cm before the whole system momentarily comes to a stop. Assuming that the surface on which the block is resting is frictionless, determine the mass of the wooden...

A large crate is suspended by a light string. A bullet is fired horizontally into the crate and becomes firmly lodged inside it. After being struck by the bullet, the crate swings upward to a maximm height and then swings back up. Just before the collision (time t1), the crate is at rest and the bullet moves horizontally with speed v0. Immediately after the bullet becomes lodged inside the crate (time t2) the bullet and crate move together with speed...

A bullet with a mass m b = 13.1 g is fired into a block of wood at velocity v b = 245 m/s. The block is attached to a spring that has a spring constant k of 205 N/m. The block and bullet continue to move, compressing the spring by 35.0 cm before the whole system momentarily comes to a stop. Assuming that the surface on which the block is resting is frictionless, determine the mass of the wooden...

A bullet of mass m = 8.00 g is fired into a block of mass M = 220 g that is initially at rest at the edge of a table of height h = 1.00 m (see figure below). The bullet remains in the block, and after the impact the block lands d = 2.10 m from the bottom of the table. Determine the initial speed of the bullet. ___m/s

A 0.004 kg bullet is fired into a 0.200 kg wooden block at rest on a horizontal surface. After impact, the embedded bullet block slides 8.00 m before coming to rest. If the coefficient of friction is 0.400, what is the speed of the bullet before impact? a) 96 m /s b) 112 m/s c) 286 m/s d) 404 m/s e) 812 m/s
