- Calculate the final speed (in m/s) of a 106 kg rugby player who is initially running at 7.50 m/s but collides head-on with a padded goalpost and experiences a backward force of 1.70 x 10 N for 7.00 x 10-2 s. m/sarrow_forwardA two-stage rocket (M = 7.50 × 103 kg) initially travels at 4.50 km·s−1 relative to Earth. Explosive charges then separate the capsule (mC = 1.50 × 103 kg) from the booster (mB = 6.00 × 103 kg). After separating, the booster travels at 2.70 km·s−1 along the original direction of motion. a) What was the speed of the capsule just after the stages separated? b) How much energy was released by the explosive charges?arrow_forwardA 8.3-kg falcon catches a 2.5-kg dove from behind in midair. What is their velocity in unit of m/s after impact if the falcon’s velocity is initially 42 m/s and the dove’s velocity is 1.8 m/s in the same direction?arrow_forward
- 6) Consider an atomic nucleus that's moving at a speed of 500m/s. This nucleus emits an alpha particle (=nucleus of a Helium atom) in the direction of its velocity, and the new nucleus (produced by the emission of the alpha particle) slows to 450m/s. If the alpha particle has a mass of 4u and the original nucleus has a mass of 208u, what speed does the alpha particle have when it is emitted? (Here u is the atomic mass unit. You could take for u the value of the proton mass, i.e. u= m, = 1.67 × 10-27kg.)arrow_forwardCalculate the final velocity right after a 116 kg rugby player who is initially running at 7.85 m/s collides head‑on with a padded goalpost and experiences a backward force of 17700 for 5.50×10^−2 s. what is the final velocity in m/s?arrow_forward2. A pitcher claims he can throw a baseball| with as much momentum as a 3.00-g bullet moving with a speed of 1 500 m/s. A baseball has a mass of 0.145 kg. What must be its speed if the pitcher's claim is valid?arrow_forward
- A 0.19kg baseball is pitched at 42m/s is struck by the bat with an average force of 700 N, which results in a velocity of 28m/s in the opposite direction from the original velocity. How long were the bat and ball in contact?arrow_forwardCalculate the final speed (in m/s) of a 100 kg rugby player who is initially running at 7.50 m/s but collides head-on with a padded goalpost and experiences a backward force of 1.65 x 10* N for 7.50 x 10 -2 S. m/sarrow_forwardOur brave astronaut Ms. Rose Noneck is at rest spacewalking 9.3 m away from her spaceship when her jetpack runs out of electricity (powered by TCC?). And worst – she is down to 60 seconds of oxygen left – there's plenty in her spaceship as well as her delicious lunch of baba ganoush. She remembers Prof. P's class and throws her 23.6 kg jetpack in the opposite direction of her spaceship at 1.4 m/s. Her mass is 55 kg. Will she make it back to her spaceship before she runs out of air? Convince me with numbers - tell me how long in seconds it takes for her to get back. Will we be seeing her in Exam 4? Or is it the end for her?arrow_forward
