Question
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 0.018-kg bullet is fired into a stationary block of wood of mass of 4.95 kg. The relative speed of the bullet with respect to the wood is zero after collision (The bullet becomes embedded in the block of wood). What is the speed of the bullet-plus-wood combination immediately after collision if the speed of the bullet before collision is 469 m/s? Express your answer in two decimal places and with units of m/s.arrow_forwardWhat is the magnitude of the momentum of a 200 gg baseball thrown at 50 m/sm/s ?arrow_forwardTwo 500 g blocks of wood are 2.0 m apart on a frictionless table. A 11 g bullet is fired at 450 m/s toward the blocks. It passes all the way through the first block, then embeds itself in the second block. The speed of the first block immediately afterward is 5.6 m/s. What is the speed of the second block after the bullet stops? Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units. V= μA Value m S ?arrow_forward
- A 100-g bat collides with a stationary 1.2 kg teddy bear. Immediately after the collision, the bat is traveling at an angle of 55 degrees from its original path. The bear is traveling in a direction 35 degrees from the original path of the bat. (All the motion occurs in two dimensions). If the bear is moving at 0.060 m/s immediately after the collision, how fast is the bat moving after the collision?arrow_forwardA joelshawon is a subatomic particle with a mass of 5.7 g, and it is made out of a joelon (mass 2.7 g) and a shawon (mass 3 g).

- Janet is skating at the ice rink with her little sister Sarah who is initially standing at rest on the ice. Janet then collides head-on into Sarah. Janet continues forward at 2 m/s, while Sarah is thrown backward at 3 m/s. (After the collision, Janet and Sarah are moving in the same direction). Janet’s mass is 54 kg and Sarah’s mass is 34 kg.

Car A�, with a mass of 1900 kgkg , is going from west to east, while car B�, of mass 1300 kgkg , is going from north to south at 14.0 m/sm/s . As a result of this collision, the two cars become enmeshed and move as one afterwards. In your role as an expert witness, you inspect the scene and determine that, after the collision, the enmeshed cars moved at an angle of 55.0 ∘∘ south of east from the point of impact.How fast were the enmeshed cars moving just after the collision?arrow_forward
