A bullet of mass 10 g is traveling horizontally at 200 m/s when it strikes and embeds in a pendulum bob of mass 2.0 kg. (a) How much mechanical energy is dissipated in the collision? (b) Assuming that Cv for the bob plus bulletis 3R, calculate the temperature increase of the system due to the collision. Take the molecular mass of the system to be 200 g/mol.
Suppose that an insulating container of air at room temperature and standard pressure is initially traveling at a speed v0 (perhaps in a car). We bring the container suddenly to rest. Assume that the air’s center-of-mass kinetic energy gets converted entirely to thermal energy in this process.
(a) What is the air’s change in temperature ΔT in terms of kB, v0, and the average mass of an air molecule m? Determine such a relationship.
(b) If v0 = 44 m / s, what is the numerical value of ΔT?
