An experiment is done to compare the initial speed of projectiles fired from high-performance catapults. The catapults are placed very close to a pendulum bob of mass 10.0 kg attached to a massless rod of length L. Assume that catapult 1 fires a projectile of mass 5.00 g at speed v1 and catapult 2 fires a projectile of mass 9.50 g at speed v2. If the projectile from catapult 1 causes the pendulum to swing to a maximum angular displacement of 6.80 ° and the projectile from catapult 2 causes a displacement of 13.4°, find the ratio of the initial speeds,

An experiment is done to compare the initial speed of projectiles fired from high-performance catapults. The catapults are placed very close to a pendulum bob of mass 10.0 kg attached to a massless rod of length L. Assume that catapult 1 fires a projectile of mass 5.00 g at speed v₁ and catapult 2 fires a projectile of mass 8.00 g at speed v₂. If the projectile from catapult 1 causes the pendulum to swing to a maximum angular displacement of 6.00° and the projectile from catapult 2 causes a displacement of 12.4°, find the ratio of the initial speeds, 21 Express your answer numerically.

An astronaut floating at rest in space has run out of fuel in her jetpack. She realizes that throwing tools from her toolkit in the opposite direction will help propel her back toward the space station. If the astronaut has a mass of 85 kg and she throws a hammer of mass 4.5 kg at a speed of 4 m/s, what will be the approximate resultant velocity that carries her back to the space station?

You want to speed up the system of rotating disks. To do this, you throw a ball of mass mb at the two disks that are still rotating together with the same speed (just after they collide). You throw the ball at the disks, and the ball follows the following trajectory as viewed from above. The ball of mass mb approaches the disks at an angle θ with respect to the tangent line to the disk and rebounds at an angle ϕ with respect to the normal. The ball's initial speed is v_0, and its final speed is v_f. What is the new z-component of the angular velocity of the system of rotating disks (they still rotate together) after the collision with the ball? Use these values for the parameters (associated with image 1): v_f=2.13 m/s v_0=14.2 m/s θ=63.2∘ ϕ=68.7∘ m_b=1.59 kg R=2.68 m *Initial scenario if it helps* Two disks are initially spinning, one above the other on a small axle that provides a small, but non-negligible torque from friction, as shown in the figure below. Both disks have the…
A loaded gun is dropped on a frozen lake. The gun fires, with the bullet going horizontally in one direction and the gun sliding on the ice in the other direction. The bullet's mass is 0.04 kg, and its speed is 320 m/s. If the gun's mass is 2.2 kg, what is its speed (in m/s)?
A raccoon is sitting on one end of the log and notice that there is an delicious apple just above the other end of the log on the still water as shown on figure. The raccoon starts to walk along the log of 10 meters length at a constant velocity of 0.1 m/s with respect to the log. Neglect its size. The mass of the raccoon is m = 20 kg and the mass of the log is M = 90 kg. Depending on your choice of method, you may answer (b) before (a). You should solve both methods (Center of Mass and Conservation of Momentum). a) As the raccoon is walking, what is the velocity of the log with respect to the shore? b) When the raccoon reaches the opposite end of the log, how far is he horizontally from the apple he desires?

A rocket that is in deep space and initially at rest relative to an inertial reference frame has a mass of 2.55* 105 kg, of which 1.81* 105 kg is fuel. The rocket engine is then fired for 250 s while fuel is consumed at the rate of 480 kg/s. The speed of the exhaust products relative to the rocket is 3.27 km/s. (a) What is the rocket’s thrust? After the 250 s firing, what are (b) the mass and (c) the speed of the rocket?
