A 16 g rifle bullet traveling 150 m/s buries itself in a 4.0 kg pendulum hanging on a 3.3 m long string, which makes the pendulum swing upward in an arc. Determine the horizontal component of the pendulum's displacement.
Solution Preview
Linear momentum is conserved
m1v1= (m1+m2) v2
m1= mass of bullet= 16g= 0.016 kg
m2=mass of pendulum= 4 kg
v1= initial velocity of ...
Solution Summary
The solution calculates the horizontal component of the pendulum's displacement when a rifle bullet buries itself in a pendulum.
