Cart A (mass of 3.0 kg) is travelling at a velocity of 12 m/s [East] and collides with stationary Cart B (mass of 5.0 kg). The collision is perfectly elastic. After the collision, Cart A is now travelling at a velocity of 5 m/s [West]. Determine the velocity of Cart B after the collision.

A car of mass 735 kg traveling at a velocity of 30 m/s in the positive x-direction crashes into the rear of a truck of mass 1,480 kg that is at rest and in neutral at an intersection. If the collision is inelastic and the truck moves forward at 13.5 m/s, what is the velocity of the car after the collision? (Indicate the direction with the sign of your answer. Assume the collision is head-on so that the motion of both vehicles remains entirely along the x-direction) m/s Submit Answer

Two blocks of masses m, = 2.30 kg and m, = 4.60 kg are each released from rest at a height of h = 4.20 m on a frictionless track, as shown in the figure below, and undergo an elastic head-on collision. (Let the positive direction point to the right. Indicate the direction with the sign of your answer.) (a) Determine the velocity of each block just before the collision. V = m/s m/s (b) Determine the velocity of each block immediately after the collision. m/s V2 = m/s (c) Determine the maximum heights to which m, and m, rise after the collision. Yıf = m Y2f = m

A proton (p) of mass 1.93-u(unified atomic mass units) traveling with a speed 2.22 x 104 m/s of has an elastic head-on collision with a helium (He) nucleus (mHe = 4.00 u) initially at rest. What is the velocity of helium nucleus after the collision?(As mentioned in Chapter 1, 1 u = 1.66 x 10–27 kg but we won’t need this fact.) Assume the collision takes place in nearly empty space.

A rigid ball of mass m and velocity u undergoes an inelastic collision with another rigid ball of mass m and velocity -u. After the collision, the balls stick together. Find the mass of the composite object after the collision. What must |u| be for the composite object mass to be 3m?

Let two particles of equal mass m collide. Particle 1 has initial velocity v, directed to the right, and particle 2 is initially stationary.  Now assume that the mass of particle 1 is 2m, while the mass of particle 2 remains m. If the collision is elastic, what are the final velocities v1 and v2 of particles 1 and 2? Express the velocities in terms of v.

Consider two cars that are on course for a head-on collision. If they have masses m1 = 1,100 kg and m2 = 1,800 kg and are both traveling at 27 m/s, what is the magnitude of the total momentum?

A block with mass m 1 =1 kg is released from rest on a frictionless track at a distance h1=2.5 m above the top of a table . it then collides elasticly with a block having same mass m2=1Kg that is at rest on the table. (a) What is the velocity of mass m1 just before collision? (b) What is the velocity of mass 2 just after collision?

Consider a collision in one dimension that involves two objects of masses 4.5 kg and 6.2 kg. The larger mass is initially at rest, and the smaller mass has an initial velocity of 16 m/s [E]. The final velocity of the larger object is 10.0 m/s [E]. Calculate the final velocity of the smaller object after the collision.

During the collision between the ball and the racket, the velocity vector of the tennis ball is exactly reversed such that its speed is the same before and after the collision. Determine the speed of the ball assuming its mass to be 150 g. A nucleus A of mass 2 m moving with velocity 100 m/s collides inelastically with a stationary nucleus B of mass 10 m. After collision, the nucleus A travels at 90oto the original incident direction while B proceeds at an angle 37oto the original incident direction. a) Find the speeds of A and B after the collision.b) What fraction of the initial kinetic energy is gained or lost due to the collision? Two blocks having equal masses m1 = m2 = 10 kg are placed in contact on a surface inclined at an angle of 40ofrom the horizontal as shown in the figure below. The coefficient of static friction between the incline and the lower block is µs1 = 0.90 and the coefficient of kinetic friction is µk1 = 0.40. The respective coefficients between theincline and the…
