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

A simple pendulum of length \(1 \mathrm{~m}\) has a wooden bob of mass \(1 \mathrm{~kg}\). It is struck by a bullet of mass \(10^{-2} \mathrm{~kg}\) moving with a speed of \(2 \times 10^2 \mathrm{~ms}^{-1}\). The bullet gets embedded into the bob. The height to which the bob rises before swinging back is _______. (use \(\mathrm{g}=10 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^2\) )

  1. A \(0.30 \mathrm{~m}\)
  2. B  \(0.20 \mathrm{~m}\)
  3. C \(0.35 \mathrm{~m}\)
  4. D \(0.40 \mathrm{~m}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B)  \(0.20 \mathrm{~m}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\mathrm{mu}=(\mathrm{M}+\mathrm{m}) \mathrm{V}\) \(10^{-2} \times 2 \times 10^2 \cong 1 \times \mathrm{V}\) \(\mathrm{V} \cong 2 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\) \(\mathrm{h}=\frac{\mathrm{V}^2}{2 \mathrm{~g}}=0.2 \mathrm{~m}\)
