Ernest Goes Fishing.
After putting his fishing gear in the canoe he walks back to his car to lock it. Upon returning he finds that the canoe was not secured properly and is now drifting along the pier parallel to it at 1 m/s, without friction. He runs down the pier at 5 m/s and jumps into the canoe that is moving in the same direction he is. When Ernest has landed in the boat, what is its final velocity (in m/s)? Ernest has a mass of 70 kg and the canoe (with fishing gear) has a mass of 30 kg.
Use conservation of momentum for an inelastic collision.
The figure shows a glancing (not head-on) collision between two billiard balls (viewed from above). Ball 1 is initially moving with 2.0 m/s in the positive x direction; ball 2 is initially moving with 1.0 m/s in the opposite direction. After the collision, ball 2 moves at 1.41 m/s in the negative y direction.
a) What are the direction (the angle θ from the x axis) and speed of ball 1 after the collision?
b) Is this an elastic collision? If not, what fraction of the original energy is lost in the collision?

- Please help!! Urgent!! You are playing pool and decide to practice your ability to make trick shots. In this trick shot you are attempting to strike an object ball with the cue ball while the object ball is moving and make the shot. If the object ball is moving directly from you at a speed of 0.10 m/s and you strike the cue ball at 0.50 m/s directly in line with the object ball, then after the cue ball and object ball collide, how fast will they be moving apart relative to one another?

- Archerfish are one of the few fish that prey on land insects and other small animals. They do this by shooting a jet of water from their specialized mouths at an insect resting on a leaf or plant stem above the water (see photo). This often stuns the insect, causing it to fall into the water, where it can be eaten. In the drawing, an archerfish is shooting water toward an unsuspecting horsefly at rest on a blade of marsh grass above the surface of a pond. Use the information in the drawing to calculate how high (h) the horsefly is above the water. The initial velocity of the water (vo) is 3.2 m/s, and assume that the projected water reaches its maximum height above the pond's surface when it strikes the horsefly. to search Varren l'hotographic FOWL A O 1 10 OF 55°F Mostly cloudyarrow_forwardA 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?arrow_forwardJames realizes that he can try to get Kevin by having two balls roll down from opposite hills.
