Two discs sliding on a horizontal plane without friction with opposite speeds of the same magnitude v0 collide with each other of frontal way. Disk A is known to have a mass of 3 kg and it is observed that its velocity is zero after impact. Determine a) the mass of the disk B if the coefficient of restitution between the two discs is known to be 0.5, b) the range of possible values of the mass of disk B if the coefficient of restitution between the two discs.

How far from the center of pluto is the barycenter or center of mass of the Pluto-Charon system? Take the mass of Pluto to be 1.31 × 10^22 kg, and 1.59 × 10^21 kg for Charon (about one eighth that of Pluto). Assume Pluto and its moon Charon are separated by 19,640 km while the radius of Pluto and Charon are 1190 km and that of Charon are 606 km respectively. Treating Pluto and Charon as spherically symmetric objects, how far from Pluto is the barycenter of the Pluto - Charon pair, and is this point inside are outside of Pluto?
