From what might be a possible scene in the comic book The X-Men, the Juggernaut (mJ) is charging into Colossus (mC) and the two collide. The initial speed of the Juggernaut is vJi and the initial speed of Colossus is vCi. After the collision, the final speed of the Juggernaut is vJf and the final speed of Colossus is vCf as they each bounce off of the other, heading in opposite directions. a. What is the impulse experienced by the Juggernaut? b. What is the impulse experienced by Colossus? c. In your own words, explain how these impulses must compare with each other and how they are related to the average force each superhero experiences during the collision.

A billiard ball (1kg) and a big piece of chewing gum (0.2kg) are moving at each other.

What is the final velocity of both the chewing gum and the billiard ball when they stick together after colliding?
A soccer ball of 4.40925 (2 kilosg) pounds moves to the right a speed of 0.5 m/s. Hits a 0.1102311 (0.05 kilosg) pounds tennis ball initially moving to the left at 2 m/s. The collision is elastic and takes place in one dimension, along the x axis. What is the approximate final speed of the tennis ball, vf,g?
A .150kg baseball is thrown directly upwards with a velocity of 20.0m/s. 1.00 second later an 8.00g bullet is fired upwards at the baseball with a velocity of 300m/s. The bullet collides and embeds itself in the ball. Find the maximum height of the bullet/ball pair.
The mass of a regulation tennis ball is 57 g (although it can vary slightly), and tests have shown that the ball is in contact with the tennis racket for 30 ms.(This number can also vary, depending on the racket and swing.) We shall assume a 30.0 ms contact time. One of the fastest-known served tennis balls was served by “Big Bill” Tilden in 1931, and its speed was measured to be 73 m/s. Suppose that the positive direction of the x-axis is along the direction of motion of the ball after Big Bill's hit. What is the x-component of the force exerted by Big Bill on the tennis ball in his record serve? If Big Bill's opponent returned his serve with a speed of 55 m/s what is the x-component of the force he exerted on the ball, assuming only horizontal motion?

Jenna was serving a 0.285 kg volleyball to win the set against UNB. Scott was geeking it up and brought a high-speed camera into the gym and used it to determine that Jenna’s hand was in contact with the ball for 0.033 seconds during the serve. Scott also borrowed a radar gun from a local RCMP and using this gun, he was able to determine that the velocity of the volleyball when it left her hand was 24.4 m/s. What force in Newtons did Jenna’s hand exert on the volleyball during the serve (assume the ball’s speed was zero when her hand first struck the ball)?
