- A 480-kg car moving at 16.4 m/s hits from behind a 570-kg car movingat 13.3 m/s in the same direction. If the new speed of the heavier car is 14.0 m/s,(a) what is the speed of the lighter car after the collision, assuming that anyunbalanced forces on the system are negligibly small, and(b) what average power is dissipated during the collision if they collide for 1.4seconds?arrow_forwardA 50-g ball is shot into a chamber attached to a 500-g cart. After the collision the ball/cart combination moves away with a speed of 3.0 m/s. Assuming that friction and air resistance are negligible, determine the amount of energy lost in the collision.arrow_forwardA 130 lb person sitting in a 150 lb iceboat fires a gun, discharging a 2 oz bullet horizontally. If the bullet speed leaving the gun is 1200 ft/s, what will be the speed of the boat after the bullet is fired, if we assume no friction? The correct answer is 0.54 ft/sarrow_forward
- You push a box of mass 21.4 kg with your car up to an icy hill slope of irregular shape to a height 5.1 m. The box has a speed 13.3 m/s when it starts up the hill, the same time that you brake. It then rises up to the top (with no friction) to a flat area before elastically colliding with a smaller box of mass 14 kg. The boxes then fall off a sheer cliff individually to the ground (with no drag). (a) How far from the cliff does the heavier box hit the ground? (b) What is the direction of motion of the heavier box as it hits the ground? = ŷ + 2 (c) How far from the cliff does the lighter box hit the ground? (d) What is the direction of motion of the lighter box as it hits the ground? W = ŷ + 2arrow_forwardWhile playing a game of billards, your 0.50kg cue ball, travelling at 1.9 m/s glances off a stationary 0.30 kg billard ball so that the billard ball moves off at 1.3 m/s at an angle of 32 degrees clockwise from the cue ball's original path. What is the final speed of the cue ball?arrow_forwardThe 0.5-kg ball is fired from the tube at A with a velocity of v = 6 m/s. If the coefficient of restitution between the ball and the surface is e = 0.8, determine the height h after it bounces off the surface. v = 6 m/s 2 m 130° B C harrow_forward
- Consider the head-on collision of two identical bowling balls, each with mass 5 kg (see figure). Ball A with velocity v = m/s strikes ball B, which was at rest. Then ball A stops and ball B moves with the same velocity v that ball A had initially. M M В Initially at rest Initial state (before collision) Final state (after collision) M M B Now at rest (a) Choose a system consisting only of ball A. What is the momentum change of the system during the collision? Apsystem = kg • m/s What is the momentum change of the surroundings? Apsurroundings = kg • m/s (b) Choose a system consisting only of ball B. What is the momentum change of the system during the collision? Apsystem = kg · m/s What is the momentum change of the surroundings? Apsurroundings = kg · m/s (c) Choose a system consisting of both balls. What is the momentum change of the system during the collision? APsystem = kg · m/s What is the momentum change of the surroundings?

The 22.5-g arrow is shot with a speed of 35.5 m/s and passes through the target, which is stopped by the impact. What is the speed of the arrow after passing through the target?arrow_forwarda 600 gram banana sliding north on a frictionless table at 2.5 meters per second bounces of a 400 gram kiwi fruit that is initially at rest , after colliding the banana continues moving north at 0.5 meters per second. At the North edge of the track is a frictionless inclined ramp which the kiwi fruit slides up to then the kiwi comes back down the ramp , without losing energy , and will now be moving south , the kiwi will catch up and hit the banana again. If the last collision took 20 milliseconds , what was the average force exerted by the banana on the kiwi during the collision (magnitude and direction ) ? by the kiwi on the banana?arrow_forward
