Two blocks of clay, one of mass 1.00 kg and one of mass 4.00 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. (a) If the 4.00 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? What is the common final speed of the two blocks? How much kinetic energy is lost in the collision? (b) If the 1.00 kg block is initially at rest and the 4.00 kg block is moving, what is the initial speed of the 4.00 kg block? What is the common final speed of the two blocks? How much kinetic energy is lost in the collision? (c) In which case is more of the initial kinetic energy lost in a completely inelastic collision: a moving object collides (i) with a heavier object at rest or (ii) with a lighter object at rest?
A 19.0 kg curling stone is travelling at 3.0 m/s [N] along the smooth ice when it hits an opponent’s stone that is at rest. (Both stones have the same mass.) The opponent’s stone rolls off at a velocity of 1.8 m/s [N 22° W]. Determine the percentage of kinetic energy lost during the collision and comment on how close this collision is to being elastic.
Consider a frictionless track as shown in the figure below. A block of mass m1 = 4.85 kg is released from . It makes a head-on elastic collision at with a block of mass m2 = 15.0 kg that is initially at rest. Calculate the maximum height to which m1 rises after the collision. Answer should be in meters.
Two billiard balls of equal mass undergo a perfectly elastic head-on collision. If the speed of ball 1 was initially 2.23 m/s, and the speed of ball 2 was 6.32 m/s in the opposite direction, what will be the speed of ball 1 after the collision?
A completely inelastic collision occurs between two balls of wet putty that move directly toward each other along a vertical axis. Just before the collision, one ball, of mass 3.3 kg, is moving upward at 25 m/s and the other ball, of mass 2.0 kg, is moving downward at 13 m/s. How high do the combined two balls of putty rise above the collision point? (Neglect air drag.) Number Units
A 1.72 kg block of soft wood is suspended by two strings from the ceiling. The wood is free to rotatein pendulum-like fashion when a force is exerted upon it. An 8.5 g bullet is fired into the wood. Thebullet enters the wood at 431 m/s and exits the opposite side shortly thereafter. If the wood rises to aheight of 13.8 cm after the collision, then what is the exit speed of the bullet?

Chapter 09, Problem 068 GO In the figure, block 1 of mass m, slides from rest along a frictionless ramp from height h = 2.3 m and then collides with stationary block 2, which has mass m, = 2m,. After the collision, block 2 slides into a region where the coefficient of kinetic friction u, is 0.6 and comes to a stop in distance d within that region. What is the value of distance d if the collision is (a) elastic and (b) completely inelastic? Frictionless 9.

A tennis ball of mass 57.0 g is held just above a basketball of mass 637 g. With their centers vertically aligned, both balls are released from rest at the same time, to fall through a distance of 1.30 m, as shown in the figure below. Į (a) Find the magnitude of the downward velocity with which the basketball reaches the ground. 5.05 m/s (b) Assume that an elastic collision with the ground instantaneously reverses the velocity of the basketball while the tennis ball is still moving down. Next, the two balls meet in an elastic collision. To what height does the tennis ball rebound? 14.23 Find the relative velocities of the basketball and the tennis ball just before collision and then apply the appropriate conservation principles and rules for perfectly elastic collisions to find the tennis ball velocity and the height that the basketball reaches. m Need Help?
