1. Two 22.7 kg ice sleds initially at rest, are placed a short distance apart, one directlybehind the other, as shown in Fig. 1. A 3.63 kg cat, standing on the left sled, jumps acrossto the right one and immediately comes back to the first. Both jumps are madehorizontally at a speed of 3.05 m/s relative to the ice. Ignore the friction between the sledand ice.Fig. 1(a) Find the final speeds of the two sleds.(b) Calculate the impulse on the cat as it lands on the right sled.(c) Find the average force on the right sled applied by the cat while landing. Consider that thecat takes 12 ms to finish the landing.

we are given with 2 sledsweighing=22.7kgcat's weight=3.63kgspeed of jumps=3.05m/s

Male bighorn sheep (120 kg ) engage in head-butting contests to establish dominance. High-speed photography has shown that the impact speed is typically 6.0 m/s and that the collision, which brings both rams to a halt, lasts approximately 0.25 s . Suppose the collision force increases linearly with time until it reaches a maximum Fmax , then decreases linearly to zero at t = 0.25 s. What is Fmax?
A 3.45 kg black ball traveling 4 m/s has a head on collision with a white one at rest. Using the velocities shown, calculate the mass of the white ball, Ignore friction and air resistance. 0 m/s 4 m/s 1.4 m/s 5.7 m/s
1) A baseball with a mass of 137 g is thrown horizontally with a speed of 40.6 m/s (91 mi/h) at a bat. The ball is in contact with the bat for 1.05 ms and then travels straight back at a speed of 45.4 m/s (102 mi/h). Determine the average force (in N) exerted on the ball by the bat. Neglect the weight of the ball (it is much smaller than the force of the bat) and choose the direction of the incoming ball to be positive. 2)A 4.50 gram bullet is fired from a rifle at a horizontal speed of 210 m/s. If the rifle has a weight of 25.0 N and is initially motionless, determine the recoil speed of the rifle.

3. Three asteroids coated with cosmic slime are moving in the same plane when they collide and stick together. Initially asteroid A has a mass of 2 x 107 kg and is moving to the right at a speed of 150 m/s, asteroid B has a mass of 3 × 107 kg and is moving at 50 m/s towards the lower left at an angle of 60° with respect to asteroid A, while asteroid C has a mass of 5 x 107 kg and is moving with an unknown speed and angle. After the collision, the resulting single asteroid is moving toward the right at a speed of 50 m/s. Determine the speed and angle of asteroid C prior to the collision.
Dan is gliding on his skateboard at 2.56 m/sm/s . He suddenly jumps backward off the skateboard, kicking the skateboard forward at 6.22 m/sm/s (as measured by an observer on the ground). Dan's mass is 42.1 kgkg and the skateboard's mass is 5.99 kgkg . If the jump requires 0.122 ss to complete, what average force did Dan exert on the skateboard?
1. For the purposes of this problem make sure you remember that the positive x direction is to the right. A 0.500 kg crash cart was rolling to the left at &; = -1.00 m/s. It was hit with a rubber hammer. Just afterwards the cart was rolling to the right with Uf = +2.50 m/s. The hammer was in contact with the cart for only 5.00 milliseconds. Remember to specify the direction in your answers as either postive or negative. (a) What is the change in momentum, Ap, for the cart? (b) What is the Impulse, I, applied by the hammer to the cart? (c) What is the average force, F, applied by the hammer to the cart? +x X+ Vf +X
