Show me how to solve it step by step , thanks in advance 1. *Note: The collision shown below is a top-down view. Imagine that the process is occurring on africtionless table and that you are looking down at it.*Two objects of mass 2-kg and 4-kg, respectively, collide and combine into a 6-kg mass. Before the collision,the 2-kg object was seen traveling at 10-m/s in a direction of 30 degrees below the horizontal, while the 4-kg object was seen traveling at an unknown speed in a direction of 40 degrees above the horizontal. Thesystem is shown below. After the collision the combined object travels directly towards the right.a. Determine the speed of the 4-kg object before the collisionb. Determine the speed of the 6-kg object after the collision2-kgBefore:10-m/s30°4-kgV₁₂ =?40°After:X-?6-kg

Integrated Concepts Large meteors sometimes strike the Earth, converting most of their kinetic energy into thermal energy. (a) What is the kinetic energy of a 109kg meteor moving at 25.0km/s ? (b) If this meteor lands in a deep ocean and 80% of its kinetic energy goes into heating water, how many kilograms of water could it raise by 5.0C ? (c) Discuss how the energy of the meteor is more likely to be deposited in the ocean and the likely effects of that energy.
Scientists and engineers must interpret problems from various sources. We can practice this skill anytime we read a newspaper or magazine or browse the Internet. Consider the Rocket Car urban legend that can be found on many Internet sites, in which the Arizona Highway Patrol allegedly found the vaporized wreckage of an automobile. The story goes that after some analysis and investigation, it was believed that a former Air Force Sergeant attached solid-fuel rockets to his 1967 Chevy Impala and ignited the rockets approximately 3.9 miles from the crash site. The vehicle quickly reached a speed of approximately 275 mph. It continued at this speed for 20 to 25 seconds. The car remained on the highway for 2.6 miles before the driver applied the brakes. The brakes melted and the tires blew out, causing the vehicle to become airborne. It traveled through the air for 1.3 miles before it hit a cliff face 125 feet above the road. Of course, this story was debunked. It is physically implausible, but it can still provide an opportunity to practice analyzing a problem. a. C Draw a Sketch of the Situation. b. C For the constant-velocity part of the cars motion, identify initial and final positions, the velocity, and the time interval. c. N Calculate the displacement using the position data and then again using the velocity and time data. Are your results consistent? d. C If your results are not consistent, reread the legend and identify possible sources of the discrepancy.
Rank the following three collisions in terms of the extent of damage that the car would experience. Explain your reasons for ranking the collisions as you did. (a) A car going 10 m/s striking an identical car that was stationary on level ground. (b) A car going 10 m/s running into an immovable concrete wall. (c) A head-on collision between identical cars, boom going 10 m/s.
Two billiard balls are at rest and touching each other on a pool table. The cue ball travels at 3.8 m/s along the line of symmetry between these balls and strikes them simultaneously. If the collision is elastic, what is the velocity of the three balls after the collision?
You are on the Pirates of the Caribbean attraction in the Magic kingdom at Disney World. Your boat rules through a pirate battle, in which cannons on a ship and in a fort are firing at each other. While you are aware that the splashes in the water do not represent actual cannonballs, you begin to wonder about such battles in the days of the pirates. Suppose the fort and the ship are separated by 75.0 m. You sec that the cannons in the fort are aimed so that their cannonballs would be fired horizontally from a height of 7.00 m above the water. (a) You wonder at what speed they must be fired in order to hit the ship before falling in the water. (b) Then, you think about the sludge that must build up inside the barrel of a cannon. This sludge should slow down the cannonballs. A question occurs in your mind: if the cannonballs can be fired at only 50.0% of the speed found earlier, is it possible to fire them upward at some angle to the horizontal so that they would reach the ship?
There is approximately of energy available from fusion of hydrogen in the world's oceans. (a) If of this energy were utilized, what would be the decrease in mass of the oceans? (b) How great a volume of water does this correspond to? (c) Comment on whether this is a significant fraction of the total mass of the oceans.
Integrated Concepts A 2.50-kg fireworks shell is fired straight up from a mortar and reaches a height of 110 m. (a) Neglecting air resistance (a poor assumption, but we will make it for this example), calculate the shell's velocity when it leaves the mortar. (b) The mortar itself is a tube 0.450 m long. Calculate the average acceleration of the shell in the tube as it goes from zero to the velocity found in (a). (c) What is the average force on the shell in the mortar? Express your answer in newtons and as a ratio to the weight of the shell.
A 4.5 kg puffer fish expands to 40 of its mass by taking in water. When the puffer fish is threatened, it releases the water toward the threat to move quickly forward. What is the ratio of the speed of the puffer fish forward to the speed of the expelled water backwards?

A 70.0-kg ice hockey goalie, originally at rest, catches a 0.150-kg hockey puck slapped at him at a velocity of 35.0 m/s. Suppose the goalie and the ice puck have an elastic collision and the puck is reflected back in the direction from which it came. What would their final velocities be in this case?
A 2.00-kg object hangs, at rest, on a 1.00-m-long string attached to the ceiling. A 100-g object is fired with a speed of 20 m/s at the 2.00-kg object, and the two objects collide and stick together in a totally inelastic collision. Write an equation for the motion of the system after the collision. Assume air resistance is negligible.
A bullet is accelerated down the barrel of a gun by hot gases produced in the combustion of gun powder. What is the average force exerted on a 0.0300-kg bullet to accelerate it to a speed of 600 m/s in a time of 2.00 ms (milliseconds)?
