6.19 A trolley of mass 300 kg carrying a sandbag of 25 kg is moving uniformly with a speed of 27 km/h on a frictionless track. After a while, sand starts leaking out of a hole on the floor of the trolley at the rate of 0.05 kg s–1. What is the speed of the trolley after the entire sand bag is empty?

6.19 Given, the mass of the trolley, = 300 kg, mass of the sand bag, = 25 kg, uniform velocity of the trolley, v = 27 kmph = 0.75 m/s
Since there is no external force acting on the system, the speed of the trolley will remain unchanged even after entire sand is empty. 27 kmph is the answer.

(b) conserving energy between “O” ans ”A”

Ui + Ki = Uf + Kf
0+1/2mv2= mgh + 1/2mv’
(v’)2=v2-2gh = v’= ……….1
Let speed after emerging be v1 then
=1/2mv12=1/2[1/2mv’2]
1/2m(v1)2=1/4m(v’)2=1/4m[v2-2gh]
V1= ………….2
From eqn 1 and 2
So v1 = v’/ =v2(v’/2)
v1>v’/2
hence after emerging from the target velocity of the bullet is more than half of its earlier velocity v’
