6) A block of mass m = 1.60 kg initially moving to the right with a speed of 4.00 m/s on a frictionless, horizontal track collides with a light spring V, =4.00i m/s V2; =-2.50i m/s attached to a second block of mass m2 = 2.10 kg initially moving to the m left with a speed of 2.50 m/s.

Pendulum 1 in the figure has a 1.50 m rope with a small ball attached as a weight. This pendulum is pulled to one side at 30.0º and released. At the bottom point of its arc, it collides elastically with the weight of pendulum 2, which has a bead with twice the mass of the first, but with the same length of string. Determine the angles at which both pendulums bounce (when they come to rest) after they collide.
Problem 4. A 15.0-kg block is attached to a very light horizontal spring of force constant 500.0 N/m and is resting on a frictionless horizontal table (see figure below). Suddenly it is struck by a 3.00-kg stone traveling horizontally at 8.00 m/s to the right. The collision is totally inelastic. (a) Find the velocity of the stone-block just after collision. (b) Find the maximum distance that the stone-block will compress the spring after the collision. 15.0 kg 3.00 kg 8.00 m/s
A 1.72 kg block of soft wood is suspended by two strings from the ceiling. The wood is free to rotatein pendulum-like fashion when a force is exerted upon it. An 8.5 g bullet is fired into the wood. Thebullet enters the wood at 431 m/s and exits the opposite side shortly thereafter. If the wood rises to aheight of 13.8 cm after the collision, then what is the exit speed of the bullet?
A rubber ball of mass 29.5 g is dropped from a height of 1.95 m onto a floor. The velocity of the ball is reversed by the collision with the floor, and the ball rebounds to a height of 1.55 m. What impulse was applied to the ball during the collision?
A 9.50-g bullet, moving horizontally withan initial speed v0, embeds itself in a 1.45-kg pendulum bob that isinitially at rest. The length of the pendulum is L = 0.745 m. Afterthe collision, the pendulum swings to one side and comes to restwhen it has gained a vertical height of 12.4 cm.

A ballistic pendulum has a mass of 1.00 kg, it hangs from a string at rest when a bullet, mass 100.0 g is fired into it. The bullets speed is 50 m/s when it hits a pendulum. The two rise together immediately following the perfectly inelastic collision. Use the conservation of momentum and energy to determine how high they rise after the Impact.
Mass A (mA=0.50kg) is initially at rest, compressed against a spring of spring constant 5070N/m for a compression of x=0.035m. It's then let go and collides with mass B (mB=0.79kg), initially at rest, in a perfectly inelastic collision. The combined masses then travel on a curved incline to an angle of 15 degrees before stopping. What is the radius of the curve? You may treat the objects as point masses. Assume all surfaces are frictionless.
A bullet of mass 100 g is fired horizontally into a block of wood of mass 2 kg and suspended like a ballistic pendulum. The bullet sticks in the block and the impact causes the block to swing so that its center of gravity rises 0.1 m. Find the velocity of the bullet just before the impact. What is the magnitude of the impulse and the force experienced by the bullet if the collision time is 0.1 s?
A massless spring (with force constant k = 189 N/m) connects a wall and a block of wood. The system is initially at rest, with the spring unstretched. The block has mass M = 54.5 g and is able to move without friction on a table. A gun is positioned to fire a bullet of mass m = 8.9 g into the block along the spring axis. After the gun is fired, the bullet gets embedded in the block, and the spring is compressed a maximum distance d = 0.91 m. A: In meters per second, what is the speed of the bullet v before it enters the block?
