A wood block of mass mw = 200 g is projected from the ground at a speed vo = 35 m/s and at an angle 60 = 50°. When at height h = 24 m the wood block was hit by a bullet of mass mb = 25 g which was moving at vh= 220 m/s and at an angle On = 70°. After the collision, the bullet embedded itself in the block and move together and land at point A on the ground. Then they move on the ground that has coefficient of kinetic friction uk = 0.5 and start to compress a horizontal spring at point B. The distance between point A and B is 18 m and the spring constant k = 3x102 N/m. Right end of the spring is fixed, and all motions are confined in x-y plane. %3D Wood block + Bullet Bullet Wood A B block (a) Was the collision between the wood block and the bullet elastic or inelastic?

Consider a mass with mass m = 400 g (e.g., a soccer ball). Assume that the ball is moving to the left with velocity v1 = -20 m/s after being kicked towards a solid wall, that is oriented vertically. Assume that during the collision, the ball interacts with the wall for 1 msec. After the collision with the wall, the ball moves in the positive x-direction with velocity v2 = 10 m/s. Calculate the impulse, Jx. Also calculate the average force, Fav, that the ball exerts on the wall.

This amazing summer adventure is finally winding down with some pool. Unfortunately, this pool table is wonky and some of the balls are larger than the others! Anthony hits the cue ball (mass = 0.15 kg) and it moves at 5 m/s when it strikes head on into the number 3 ball (mass = 0.30 kg). After this inelastic collision, the cue ball moves off at 60 degrees relative to the +x axis and the number 3 ball moves off at -30 degrees relative to the +axis as shown. What were the speeds of the two balls after the collision?
