The two balls have a glancing blow, which means they do not bounce along the same line as their original motion, but rather, deflect at an angle to their original paths. You measure the billard ball's motion as it moves 26.0° north of east, and you measure that the tennis ball is travelling 19.0° south of west. What is the speed of the billiard ball after the collision? Your Answer: Answerarrow_forwardA 2.35 µg particle moves at 1.87 x 10° m/s. What is its momentum p? p = kg-m/sarrow_forward

Ball 1 has a density of 1.16 × 103 kg/m3 and a radius of 28.0 mm. Ball 2 has an unknown density and a radius of 43.0 mm and is initially at rest. You roll ball 1 at an initial speed of 3.00 m/s, and the two balls collide head-on. Ball 1 reverses direction and comes back to you at 2.00 m/s, and after the collision, the speed of ball 2 is 1.00 m/s. The positive x axis is in the direction of ball 1's initial motion.

Such an event may have been observed by medieval English monks who reported observing a red glow and subsequent haze about the Moon. B. In October 2009, NASA crashed a rocket into the Moon, and analyzed the plume produced by the impact. (Significant amounts of water were detected.)

It "collides" with a wedge of mass mw, which moves to the left at a speed of 1.13 m/s. The wedge is shaped so that the block slides seamlessly up the Teflon (frictionless!) surface, as the two come together. Relative to the horizontal surface, block and wedge are moving with a common velocity Vb+w at the instant the block stops sliding up the wedge. a) If the block's center of mass rises by a distance h = 0.38 m, what is the mass of the wedge? The gravitational acceleration is g = 9.8 m/s². Express your answer in kg.arrow_forward
