JEE Mains · Physics · STD 11 - 4.1 newtons laws of motion

A bullet of mass \(0.1\, kg\) is fired on a wooden block to pierce through it, but it stops after moving a distance of \(50\, cm\) into it. If the velocity of bullet before hitting the wood is \(10\) \(m / s\) and it slows down with uniform deceleration, then the magnitude of effective retarding force on the bullet is \('x' N.\) The value of \('x'\) to the nearest integer is................. \(N\)

  1. A \(7\)
  2. B \(8\)
  3. C \(10\)
  4. D \(12\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(10\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(v ^{2}= u ^{2}+2 as\) \(0=(10)^{2}+2(- a )\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)\) \(a =100 m / s ^{2}\) \(F = ma =(0.1)(100)=10\, N\)
