If the mass of the bullet is m=27g, the mass of the pendulum is M=0.61kg, and the height they rise to after the bullet strikes the mass is h=20cm. Calculate the initial speed of the bullet, v (in m/s).

Two physics home work problems A ballistic pendulum is used to measure the speed of a fast-moving objects such as bullets. If a bullet is fired into a large block suspended by some light wires. The bullet is stopped by the block, and the entire system swings up to a height h. If the mass […]
