You fire a bullet into a 2 kg wooden block that is hanging at the bottom of a pendulum. When the bullet strikes the block, the pendulum swings upward. The bullet has a mass of 0.02 kg
and strikes the block with a speed of 300 m/s.

a. What is the speed of the block and bullet when they first start moving together?

b. What is the maximum height reached by the pendulum?

If you were designing a bumper for a car, would you prefer it to exhibit elastic or plastic deformation? why? consider the functions of a bumper in both a minor "fender-bender" and a major collision.

Apump is used to circulate hot water in a home heating system. water enters the well-insulated pump operating at steady state at a rate of 0.42 gal/min. the inlet pressure and temperature are 14.7 lbf/in.2, and 180°f, respectively; at the exit the pressure is 60 lbf/in.2 the pump requires 1/15 hp of power input. water can be modeled as an incompressible substance with constant density of 60.58 lb/ft3 and constant specific heat of 1 btu/lb or. neglecting kinetic and potential energy effects, determine the temperature change, in °r, as the water flows through the pump.

Acompressor receives the shaft work to decrease the pressure of the fluid. a)- true b)- false
