The figure below shows a bullet of mass 15 g traveling horizontally towards the east with speed 250 m/s, which strikes a block of mass 1.5 kg that is initially at rest on a frictionless table. After striking the block, the bullet is embedded in the block and the block and the bullet move together as one unit. What is the energy loss in the system due to this collision

There is a collision between a box and a ball in the xy plane. The collision is inelastic, but not perfectly inelastic. The box has a mass of 45kg and an initial velocity of 15m/s in the x direction. The ball has a mass of 55kg and an initial velocity of 25 in the y direction. The final velocity of the box was 13 in the y direction. What was the final speed of the ball in m/s?

A 5.00 g object moving to the right at +20.0 cm/s makes an elastic head-on collision with a 10.0 g object that is initially at rest.   (a) Find the velocity of each object after the collision.(b) Find the percentage of the initial kinetic energy transferred to the 10.0 g object.

A billiard ball traveling at 5.00 m/s collides with an identical billiard ball initially at rest on the level table. The initially moving billiard ball (A) deflects 60° from its original direction while the other ball, which was initially at rest, travels 30° from the original direction of A. a)Find the speed of each of the masses A and B after the collision? b) Is the collision elastic or inelastic?

In a railroad accident, a boxcar weighing 200 kN and traveling at 2.00 m/s on horizontal track slams into a stationary caboose weighing 440 kN. The collision connects the caboose to the boxcar. How much energy is transferred from kinetic energy to other forms of energy in the collision?

A 0.0200-kg bullet is shot horizontally and collides with a 2.49-kg block of wood. The bullet embeds in the block, and the block slides along the horizontal surface for 2.20 m. If the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and surface is 0.400, what was the original speed of the bullet?

A 0.0101-kg bullet is fired straight up at a falling wooden block that has a mass of 4.08 kg. The bullet has a speed of 575 m/s when it strikes the block. The block originally was dropped from rest from the top of a building and had been falling for a time t when the colllision with the bullet occurs. As a result of the collision, the block (with the bullet in it) reverses direction, rises, and comes to momentary halt at the top of the building. Find the time t.

Two blocks of clay, one of mass 1.00 kg and one of mass 6.00 kg, undergo a completely inelastic collision. Before the collision one of the blocks is at rest and the other block is moving with kinetic energy 32.0 J. If the 6.00 kg block is initially at rest and the 1.00 kg block is moving, what is the initial speed of the 1.00 kg block?

A bullet weighing 6.00 g is fired horizontally at a speed of 458 m/s into a wooden block weighing 1.00 kg. (Note: The block is resting on a frictionless horizontal surface). Find how fast the block will be moving if the bullet becomes embedded in the block and find out how much thermal energy was generated during the collision.
