Two identical particles, each of mass 1 000 kg, are coasting in free space along the same path, one in front of the other by 20.0 m. At the instant their separation distance has this value, each particle has precisely the same velocity of 800 m/s. What are their precise velocities when they are 2.00 m apart? Figure P13 74

Our 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?

Type A: a m m particle of mass m and velocity v strikes V a stationary target consisting of an identical particle of mass m. Type B: Туре В each particle has a mass m and a speed m m v/(22) – in this case they collide head v/2/2 V/22 on. Ignore gravity, and express your answers in terms of m and v. A.

Justify your answers. В. ( What is the change in the total kinetic energy for type A and type B ?
You are at the controls of a particle accelerator, sending abeam of 1.50 * 107 m/s protons (mass m) at a gas target of an unknownelement. Your detector tells you that some protons bounce straight backafter a collision with one of the nuclei of the unknown element. All suchprotons rebound with a speed of 1.20 * 107 m/s. Assume that the initialspeed of the target nucleus is negligible and the collision is elastic.(a) Find the mass of one nucleus of the unknown element. Express youranswer in terms of the proton mass m. (b) What is the speed of the unknownnucleus immediately after such a collision?

A space station contains 11 modules each with a mass of 13 000 kg, moves at a speed of 4.0km/s. It is equipped with an emergency collision avoidance system whereby an explosive chargecan be detonated to release one of the modules. The collision alarm sounds, and thecommander detonates a charge, releasing one of the modules at a speed of 1400 km/hwith respect to the station, directed opposite to the original direction of travel of the station.Find the resulting change in the speed of the station.

A rocket accelerates by burning its onboard fuel, so that its mass decreases with time.Suppose that the initial mass of the rocket at liftoff (including its fuel) is m, the fuel isconsumed at rate r, and the exhaust gases are ejected with constant velocity ν (relativeto the rocket). A model for the velocity of the rocket at time t is given by the equationv(t) = −ν ln(1 −Rt) −gt,where g is the acceleration due to gravity, R = r/m, and t is not too large.(a) Find an expression for the acceleration, a(t) = v′(t), of the rocket at any time t.(b) Find an expression for the position of the height, h(t), of the rocket at any timet.

Two asteroids of equal mass in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter collide with a glancing blow. Asteroid A, which was initially traveling at vA1 = 40.0 m/s with respect to an inertial frame in which asteroid B was at rest, is deflected 30.0° from its original direction, while asteroid B travels at 45.0° to the original direction of A, as shown in (Figure 1).
