Two 70-kg canoers paddle in a single, 50-kg canoe. Their paddling moves the canoe at 1.2 m/s with respect to the water, and the river they’re in flows at 4 m/s with respect to the land. What is their momentum with respect to the land?
Momentum for a system can be conserved in one direction while not being conserved in another. What is the angle between the directions? Give an example.
You friend claims that momentum is mass multiplied by velocity, so things with more mass have more momentum. Do you agree? Explain.

Two carts on an air track have the same mass and speed and are traveling towards each other. If they collide and stick together, find (a) the total momentum and (b) total kinetic energy of the system, (c) Describe a different colliding system with this same final momentum and kinetic energy.
Explain in terms of momentum and Newton’s laws how a car’s air resistance is due in part to the fact that it pushes air in its direction of motion.
Consider the ballistic pendulum device discussed in Example 6.5 and illustrated in Figure 6.13. (a) Determine the ratio of the momentum immediately after the collision to the momentum immediately before the collision, (b) Show that the ratio of the kinetic energy immediately after the collision to the kinetic energy immediately before the collision is m1/(m1 + m2).
A family is skating. The father (75 kg) skates at 8.2 m/s and collides and sticks to the mother (50 kg), who was initially moving at 3.3 m/s and at 45 with respect to the father’s velocity. The pair then collides with their daughter (30 kg), who was stationary, and the three slide off together. What is their final velocity?

A ball of mass m is dropped. What is the formula for the impulse exerted on the ball from the instant it is dropped to an arbitrary time later? Ignore air resistance.
Two identical objects (such as billiard balls) have a one-dimensional collision in which one is initially motionless. After the collision, the moving object is stationary and the other moves with the same speed as the other originally had. Show that both momentum and kinetic energy are conserved.
