A ballistic pendulum consists of a 1.25-kg block of wood that is hanging from the ceiling in such a way that when a bullet enters it, the blockā€™s change in height can be recorded as it swings. A bullet having a mass of 6.25-grams and unknown velocity strikes the block and becomes imbedded in it. The impulse imparted to the block causes it to swing in such a way that its height increases by 7.15 cm. 1. What was the change in potential energy of the block/bullet combo after the collision?

2. What was the speed of the block/bullet combo immediately after the collision (and before it began
to swing)?

3. What was the speed of the bullet before entering the block of wood?

Agardener uses a wheelbarrow to move soil from a truck to his garden. on the first trip from the truck to the garden, the wheelbarrow is half-full of soil and the gardener applies a certain force to cause it to accelerate. on the second trip, the wheelbarrow is full of soil. although the gardener applies the same amount of force to the wheelbarrow, he cannot move it with the same rate of acceleration. what should the gardener do to move the wheelbarrow at the same rate of acceleration for the second trip?
