A bullet is fired horizontally at a stationary 7.0 kg target. The target sits on a frictionless horizontal surface and is connected to a spring on the backside of the target. The spring has a spring constant of 5000 N/m. The 11.0 g bullet is traveling horizontally at 675 m/s the moment before it strikes the target. After 1 ms, the bullet is embedded into the target and begins to oscillate. Ignore air resistance. (a) Determine the speed of the block immediately after the collision. Hint: what quantity is conserved during the collision? (b) Find the period and amplitude of the resulting simple harmonic motion. (c) Find the initial phase of the resulting simple harmonic motion. Hint: note that the block is at its equilibrium position x = 0 at t = 0. (d) On three separate graphs, plot the position vs. time, velocity vs. time, and acceleration vs. time for the system starting when the bullet is fully embedded into the target. Be sure to clearly label your axes and the scale of each graph. (e) On a single graph, plot the potential energy, kinetic energy, and total mechanical energy as a function of time for the system starting when the bullet is fully embedded into the target. Be sure to clearly label your axes and the scale of your graph.

A block of mass M and contact area A slides on a thin film of oil with thickness h as shown in the figure. When released, a mass m exerts tension on the cord, causing the block to accelerate. (a) Neglect friction in the pulley and air resistance, and develop an algebraic expression for the viscous force that acts on the block when it moves at a speed V. (b) Derive a differential equation for the block speed as a function of time, and obtain an expression for the block speed as a function of time. (c) For the values μ = 0.04 Pa−s, m = 2 kg, A = 10 cm2, and h = 0.1 mm, determine the block mass M if it takes 10 s for the block speed to reach 1 m/s.
