Question
A 6.87 kg red ball initially has velocity x-component vred,i,x=9.77 and a 7.67 kg green ball initially has velocity x-component v_{green,i,x}=2.00. The two balls collide and afterwards the red ball has velocity x-component v_{red,f,x}=1.37. If there are no external forces acting on this system of two balls, what must the final velocity x-component of the green ball be?

The batter swings the bat and hits the ball, applying an average force of 15.714 N to the ball, causing the ball to head back in the opposite direction (away from the batter) at 9.70 m/s. (assuming that away from the batter is the positive x-direction, determine the time that the bat and ball were in contact.

- There are two curling stones sitting on an icy surface (fricionless). Call one the target and one the projectile. The projectile is initially moving along the x-axis towards the +x-direction, and the target is initially stationary. Each curling stone has a mass of 15.6 kg. The moving stone (projectile) has an initial velocity of 3.94 m/s and collides with the stationary stone (target) "dead center." The projectile stone comes to a rest where the target stone was, but the target stone breaks apart into two chunks with a total mass of 15.6 kg. One chunk has a mass of 4.18, and slides with a velocity of 5.58 m/s with a -90° angle relative to the +x direction.
