A rifle bullet weighing 0 g oving with a velocity of 6000 c/sec strikes and ebeds itself in a 790 g block which rests on a horizontal frictionless surface and is attached to a spring of force constant 80 Newton/. Copute the aplitude of the resulting siple haronic oscillations of block. Solution: ass bullet, = 0 g = 0.0 kg, velocity v = 6000 c. Mass of block M=790 g=0.79 kg, force constant k=8 04 dynes c conservation of linear oentu, we have: = 60 sec s = 80 Newton. According to (M + )v = v v = v = =.

This energy is converted in to the kinetic energy of rotation and translation of the cylinder. Hence 0.0 = Iω + v Or, 0.0 = ( r ) v + r v v = = 0.04 joule. Thus kinectic energy of rotation = 4 v = 0.04 = 0.0 joule. Kinetic energy of 4 translation = 0.04 = 0.0 joule. 0.

Hence the solution of this equation will τ be x = ae rt sin(ω t + φ) = ae t τ sin { (ω 0 )t + φ} (i) (ii) According to question, t a = ae τ,where a be the initial value of aplitude. e Taking log both side log e e = t log τ e e t = τ. Since energy is proportional to the square root of aplitude E a e t τ Or, E = Ca e t τ where C is a constant. If t is the tie in which the energy falls to /e ties the initial value, then e Ca = Ca e t τ. Solving t = τ. 5. If Q of a sonoeter wire is 0. On plucking, it executes 40 vibrations per second.

Solution: the solution of given equation is x = sin(pt Θ) {(ω 0 p ) +4r p } Since τ = r, we get x = b sin(pt Θ). (i) where we take {(ω 0 p ) +( p τ ) } = r =, k = ω τ 0 and = F 0. Differentiating equation (i) with respect to t, we get: x = ap cos(pt Θ), where a = {(ω 0 p ) +( p τ ) } Velocity aplitude x 0 = ap = p {(ω 0 p ) +( p τ ) } CaseI : When p ω 0, velocity aplitude x 0 = p [ neglecting {p 4 +( p τ ) } ω 0 in coparision to p ]. Or, x 0 = {p +( τ ) }. Now we neglect τ in coparison to p, we get x 0 = f0 p = F 0 Hence for given driving force the velocity aplitude of the oscillator depends on inertia factor (ass). Case II: When p=ω 0, then velocity aplitude x 0 = pτ = F 0 = F 0. Hence in this case p b b velocity aplitude depends on resistance factor b f Case III: When p ω 0, Velocity aplitude x 0 = p 0 = p ω [ p ω 0 ] 0. {(ω 0 ) +( p τ ) } F0 Or, x 0 = p k = F 0p.
