19. A 0.0340 kg bullet traveling at 120 m/s embeds itself in a 1.24 kg wooden block which is at rest on a smooth surface. The block then slides toward a spring and collides with it.
The block compresses the spring (k = 99.0 N/m). Calculate how far the block bullet
compresses the spring.

An athlete swings a ball, connected to the end of a chain, in a horizontal circle. the athlete is able to rotate the ball at the rate of 8.13 rev/s when the length of the chain is 0.600 m. when he increases the length to 0.900 m, he is able to rotate the ball only 6.04 rev/s. (a) which rate of rotation gives the greater speed for the ball? 6.04 rev/s 8.13 rev/s (b) what is the centripetal acceleration of the ball at 8.13 rev/s? m/s2 (c) what is the centripetal acceleration at 6.04 rev/s? m/s2
