m,
h
A bullet of mass m¡ traveling horizontally with speed u hits a block of mass m2 that is originally at rest and becomes embedded in the
block. After the collision, the block slides horizontally a distance d on a surface with friction, and then falls off the surface at a height h
as shown.
The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the surface is µk. Assume the collision is nearly instantaneous and all distances
are large compared to the size of the block. Neglect air resistance.

A moving billiard ball hits an identical (except for color) stationary ball. After the collision, the orange ball always goes off in the positive x-direction. The final speeds are v and V. Calculate the angle θ that the green ball goes off in. (θ should be positive.) V0 = the initial green body's speed = 6 m/s M = the mass of both balls = 6 kg φ = the incoming green ball's angle = 70o It's always a good idea to check your answer with the momentum-conservation and energy-conservation equations.arrow_forward
