Two 465g blocks of wood are 2 m apart on a frictionless table. A 15g bullet is fired at 419 m/s toward the blocks. it passes all the way through the first block then embeds itself in the second block. The speed of the first book in merely afterwards is 7 m/s. What is the speed of the second block after the bullet stops in it? Answer to 3 sig figs.
The figure shows two particles moving across a horizontal surface without friction. The first has a mass m1= 50g and a speed u1= 8m/s The second has a mass m2= 80g and a speed u2= 2m/s Determine: a) The speed of each particle after an elastic collision if the first one travels from left to right and the second from right to left. b) The speed of each particle after an elastic collision if they both travel from left to right. c) The speed that both particles acquire if both remain united after the collision.
Betty (mass 35 kg) stands on an ice rink as Bubbles (her hyperactive puppy, mass 8.6 kg)) runs towards her and leaps into her arms. If they move off together with a speed of 0.76 m/s, how fast (in m/s) was Bubbles moving when Betty caught her?
A particle with mass mA is struck head-on by another particle with mass mB that is initially moving at speed v0. The collision is elastic. (a) What percentage of the original energy does each particle have after the collision? (b) For what values, if any, of the mass ratio mA/mB is the original kinetic energy shared equally by the two particles after the collision?

1. Considering a glancing collision between a cue ball of mass m moving at initial velocity u and a target ball of the same mass initially at rest. This results in a two-dimensional collision with the cue ball's final velocity v making an angle with the target ball's final velocity w. Show explicitly that the collision is elastic if and only if 0 = = 90°.
