A 800kg car was moving to the right(east) at 14m/s, collided with a 400 kg car that was moving up(north) at 12m/s. Assuming the collision was inelastic. Determine the direction of the cars go after the collision.

What angle does the Blue ball go off on after the collision? (measured off it's original direction (x-direction)) Estimate: In the current setup, how fast would the Blue ball need to be going initially to come off at an angle of 5 degrees?

A 500Kg Ford focus automobile is initially travelling at vi, focus=(60i + 20j)Km/hr when it inelastically collides with a 16.7Mg semitruck initally traveling at vi,truck=(-30i-110j)Km/hr. problems: a) what is the final velocity immediately after the inelastic collision?  b) assume that, just after the collision , the ford focus and semitruck begin to slide across the pavement due to a uniform kinetic friction with coefficient uk=0.45. how far will they slide before coming to a stop.

In an elastic collision, one ball has initial velocity v when it collides head-on with another, much less massive ball, initially at rest. The velocity of the second ball after the collision is approximately equal to Multiple Choice v/2 V none of the above 2v

A car of mass m_auto = 1.20x10^3 kg travels west-east at a speed of 50.0 km/h, while a wagon of mass m_ wagon = 2.80x10^3 kg travels at a speed of 40.0 km/h in a south-north direction; vehicles collide at an intersection (Point A). From the above and assuming that the crash that occurred is considered a perfectly inelastic collision, determine the magnitude and direction of the velocity that will occur after the collision.

Carry Collision Insurance! A 1,906 kg car stopped at a traffic light is struck from the rear by a 953-kg car. The two cars become entangled, moving along the same path as that of the originally moving car. If the smaller car were moving 26.7 m/s before the collision, what is the velocity of the entangled cars after the collision? (Assume the smaller car initially moves in the positive direction.) SOLUTION Conceptualize This kind of collision is easily visualized, and one can predict that after the collision both cars will be moving in the same direction as that of the initially moving car. Because the initially moving car has only half the mass of the stationary car, we expect the final velocity of the cars to be relatively Categorize We identify the two cars as an isolated system in terms of momentum in the horizontal direction and apply the impulse approximation during the short time interval of the collision. The phrase "become entangled" tells us to categorize the collision as…

A fast car is speeding down a road with a velocity of v. It collides with a truck moving in the opposite direction that has a mass that is four times that of the fast car. They are both moving at the same speed. If the collision is elastic, then what are both of the vehicles velocities given as multiples of v.

An object (A) of mass 28kg is moving in a direction that makes angle of 42 degrees north of east with a speed of 5.00m/s, while object (B) of mass 16kg is moving due north with a speed of 8m/s. The two objects idea and stick together in a completely inelastic collision. Find the magnitude of the final velocity of the two objects system after the collision

In the railroad freight yard, an empty freight car of mass m rolls along a straight level track at 1.20 m/s and collides with an initially stationary, fully loaded boxcar of mass 5.80m. The two cars couple together on collision.   a.)What is the speed of the two cars after the collision? b.)Suppose instead that the two cars are at rest after the collision. With what speed was the loaded boxcar moving before the collision if the empty one was moving at 1.20 m/s?
