A 2-oz bullet is fired horizontally with a velocity v = 1000 ft/sec into the slender bar
Question:
A 2-oz bullet is fired horizontally with a velocity v = 1000 ft/sec into the slender bar of a 3-lb pendulum initially at rest. If the bullet embeds itself in the bar, compute the resulting angular velocity of the pendulum immediately after the impact. Treat the sphere as a particle and neglect the mass of the bar. Why is the linear momentum of the system not conserved?

Step by Step Answer:
We can solve this problem using conservation of energy and conservation of angular momentum First lets find the initial potential energy of the pendulum Since it is initially at rest its height is its ...View the full answer

As a tutor, I have gained extensive hands-on experience working with students one-on-one and in small group settings. I have developed the ability to effectively assess my students' strengths and weaknesses, and to customize my teaching approach to meet their individual needs.
I am proficient at breaking down complex concepts into simpler, more digestible pieces, and at using a variety of teaching methods (such as visual aids, examples, and interactive exercises) to engage my students and help them understand and retain the material.
I have also gained a lot of experience in providing feedback and guidance to my students, helping them to develop their problem-solving skills and to become more independent learners. Overall, my hands-on experience as a tutor has given me a deep understanding of how to effectively support and encourage students in their learning journey.
