Each Voyager spacecraft was accelerated toward escape speed from the Sun by the gravitational force exerted by Jupiter on the spacecraft. (a) Is the gravitational force a conservative or a nonconservative force? (b) Does the interaction of the spacecraft with Jupiter meet the definition of an elastic collision? (c) How could the space-craft be moving faster after the collision?
A Small pickup truck that has a caliper shell slowly coasts toward a red light with negligible friction. Two dogs in the back of the truck are moving and making various inelastic collisions with each other and the walls. What is the effect of the dogs on the motion of the center of mass of the system (truck plus entire load)? What is their effect on the motion of the truck?
In a head-on, inelastic collision, a 4,000-kg truck going 10 m/s east strikes a 1,000-kg car going 20 m/s west. (a) What is the speed and direction of the wreckage? (b) How much kinetic energy was lost in the Collision?
An archer shoots an arrow toward a 3.00 102-g target that is sliding in her direction at a speed of 2.50 m/s on a smooth, slippery surface. The 22.5-g arrow is shot with a speed of 35.0 m/s and passes through the target, which is stopped by the impact. What is the speed of the arrow after passing through the target?
A flying squid (family Ommastrephidae) is able to jump off the surface of the sea by taking water into its body cavity and then ejecting the water vertically downward. A 0.850-kg squid is able to eject 0.300 kg of water with a speed of 20.0 m/s. (a) What will be the speed of the squid immediately after ejecting the water? (b) How high in the air will the squid rise?
A pitcher claims he can throw a 0.145-kg baseball with as much momentum as a 3.00-kg bullet moving with a speed of 1.50 103 m/s (a) What must the baseballs speed be if the pitchers claim is valid? (b) Which has greater kinetic energy, the ball or the bullet?
A 3000-kg cannon is mounted so that it can recoil only in the horizontal direction. (a) Calculate its recoil velocity when it fires a 15.0-kg shell at 480 m,/s at an angle of 20.0° above the horizontal. (b) What is the kinetic energy of the cannon? This energy is dissipated as heat transfer in shock absorbers that stop its recoil. (c) What happens to the vertical component of momentum that is imparted to the cannon when it is fired?
A 44.0-kg child finds himself trapped on the surface of a frozen lake, 10.0 m from the shore. The child slips with each step on the frictionless ice and remains the same distance from the shoreline. Egged on by his parents, he throws a 0.750-kg ball he is carrying toward the center of the lake with a horizontal speed of 1.50 m/s, in the direction opposite that of the shoreline. a. Does the act of throwing the ball cause the child to move? If so, what are the speed and the direction of his motion with respect to the Earth? b. What are the forces acting on the child when he throws the ball?
A 5.0-g bullet leaves the muzzle of a rifle with a speed of 320 m/s. What force (assumed constant) is exerted on the bullet while it is traveling down the 0.82-m-long barrel of the rifle?
A 1200-kg car traveling initially with a speed of 25.0 m/s in an easterly direction crashes into the rear end of a 9 000-kg truck moving in the same direction at 20.0 m/s (Fig. P6.44). The velocity of the car right after the collision is 18.0 m/s to the east, (a) What is the velocity of the truck right after the collision? (b) How much mechanical energy is lost in the collision? Account for this loss in energy. Figure P6.44
(a) During an ice skating performance, an initially motionless 80.0-kg clown throws a fake barbell away. The clown's ice skates allow her to recoil friction-lessly. If the clown recoils with a velocity of 0.500 m/s and the barbell is thrown with a velocity of 10.0 m/s, what is the mass of the barbell? (b) How much kinetic energy is gained by this maneuver? (c) Where does the kinetic energy come from?
A 2.00 1O3-kg car moving cast at 10.0 m/s collides with a 3.00 103-kg car moving north. The cars stick together and move as a unit after the collision, at an angle of 40.0 north of east and a speed of 5.22 m/s. Find the speed and direction of the 3.00 103-kg car before the collision.
