A bullet of mass mB = 0.0137 kg is moving with a speed of 101 m/swhen it collides with a rod of mass mR = 6.69 kg and length L =1.03 m (shown in the figure). The rod is initially at rest, in avertical position, and pivots about an axis going through itscenter of mass. The bullet imbeds itself in the rod at a distanceL/4 from the pivot point. As a result, the bullet-rod system startsrotating.

b) How much kinetic energy is lost in the collision?

(a) Find the angular velocity, ω, ofthe bullet–rod system after the collision. You can neglect thewidth of the rod and can treat the bullet as a point mass.

A bullet of mass mB = 0.0201 kg is movingwith a speed of 103 m/s when it collides with a rod ofmassmR = 7.99 kg and length L = 1.08 m(shown in the figure). The rod is initially at rest, in a verticalposition, and pivots about an axis going through its center ofmass. The bullet imbeds itself in the rod at a distanceL/4 from the pivot point. As a result, the bullet-rodsystem starts rotating.

b) How much kinetic energy is lost in the collision?
(Hint: Please enter a positive number for your answer! If ΔK <0, then the amount of kinetic energylost is a positivenumber.)

A wooden block of mass M resting on a frictionless, horizontalsurface is attached to a rigid rod of length script l and ofnegligible mass. The rod is pivoted at the other end. A bullet ofmass m traveling parallel to the horizontal surface andperpendicular to the rod with speed v hits the block and becomesembedded in it.
(a) What is the angular momentum of the bullet–block system about avertical axis through the pivot? (Use any variable or symbol statedabove as necessary.) L=
(b) What fraction of the original kinetic energy of the bullet isconverted into internal energy in the system during the collision?(Use any variable or symbol stated above as necessary.)
