A stone with a mass of 0.100kg rests on a frictionless, horizontal surface. A bullet of mass 2.50g traveling horizontally at 500m/s strikes the stone and rebounds horizontally at right angles to its original direction with a speed of 300m/s. A) Compute the magnitude of the velocity of the stone after it is struck.
B) Compute the direction of the velocity of the stone after it is struck. (degrees from the initial direction of the bullet)

Explanation:

Given that:

mass of stone (M) = 0.100 kg

mass of bullet (m) = 2.50 g = 2.5  ×10 ⁻³ kg

initial velocity of stone () = 0 m/s

Initial velocity of bullet () = (500 m/s)i

Speed of the bullet after collision () = (300 m/s) j

Suppose we represent to be the velocity of the stone after the truck, then:

From linear momentum, the law of conservation can be applied which is expressed as:

∴

The magnitude now is:

Using the tangent of an angle to determine the direction of the velocity after the struck;

Let θ represent the direction:

s the environmental science is a broader field that incorporates many elements of earth and life sciences, whereas ecology is usually more focused on how organisms interact with each other and their surroundings, and often on a very specific population of living things. soo yea
