We watch two identical astronomical bodies A and B, each of mass m, fall toward each other from rest because of the gravitational force on each from the other. Their initial center-to-center separation is Ri. Assume that we are in an inertial reference frame that is stationary with respect to the center of mass of this twobody system. Use the principle of conservation of mechanical energy (Kf + Uf = Ki + Ui) to find the following when the centerto- center separation is 0.5Ri : (a) the total kinetic energy of the system, (b) the kinetic energy of each body, (c) the speed of each body relative to us, and (d) the speed of body B relative to body A. Next assume that we are in a reference frame attached to body A (we ride on the body). Now we see body B fall from rest toward us. From this reference frame, again use Kf + Uf = Ki + Ui to find the following when the center-to-center separation is 0.5Ri : (e) the kinetic energy of body B and (f) the speed of body B relative to body A. (g) Why…
The 100 kg sphere A is released from rest at an angle of α from the vertical, and hits the 10 kg block B (initially at rest), causing block B to have an initial velocity of 5 m/s as it enters the circular ramp (radius = 5 m) and stop temporarily at a final height h. The coefficient of restitution between sphere A and the block B is 0.6. Assume all surfaces are frictionless. Also assume direct impact between A and B.
What is the velocity of A just before it hits block B?

Two small spherical asteroids, each of mass 650 kg, are traveling through deep space along the same line and in the same direction. Initially they are 28 m apart and both have a speed of 5500 m/s. Assume there are no external forces acting on the system, so the velocity of the system’s center of mass does not change. However, the individual speeds of the asteroids will change due to the gravitational force between them. Later the asteroids are 4.6 m apart. What was their change in speed, in meters per second? Give the absolute value, as their speeds change by equal but opposite amounts.
