Randall D. Knight β€” Impulse and Momentum: Problem 82

A 20 kg wood ball hangs from a 2.0-m-long wire. The maximum tension the wire can withstand without breaking is 400 N. A 1.0 kg projectile traveling horizontally hits and embeds itself in the wood ball. What is the greatest speed this projectile can have without causing the wire to break?

πŸ“ Solution Approach

Given: 20 kg, 400 N, . A, 1.0 kg
