Question

Part A.) A 15.7-g lead bullet leaves a rifle at a temperature of 47.0°C and travels at a speed of 5.00 × 10^2 m/s until it hits a 6.00-kg block of ice at 0.00°C that is initially at rest on a frictionless surface. The bullet becomes embedded in the ice. Specific heat (c) of lead is 0.130 kJ/(kg·K). Latent heat of fusion (Lf) for water is 333.7 kJ/kg. How fast is the block of ice moving after the bullet is embedded? Answer m/s Part B) How much ice melts? Answerg

Step 1

First, we need to find the final velocity of the block of ice and the bullet after the collision. We can use the conservation of momentum for this. The initial momentum of the system is equal to the final momentum of the system. Initial momentum = mass_bullet * Show more…
