5. The Serengeti region of central Africa is home to a myriad of animal species, including the impala, Thomson's gazelle, and the fastest land animal, the cheetah. On one particular day, a 64-kg impala is running at 45 km/h due north, and a 25-kg Thomson's gazelle is running at 77 km/h due east. If a chasing cheetah with a mass of 70 kg has twice the momentum as the impala and gazelle combined, find the direction and magnitude of the cheetah's velocity. (Aawer 27 Ts,

During a Mutant League Football game, K.T. Slayer, a 71.6 kg linebacker, is running toward the sidelines at 6.88 m/s to catch Bones Jackson, a 89.2 kg running back, who is sprinting at 9.08 m/s toward the endzone. When Slayer reaches Jackson, he wraps his arms around him for a tackle; as a result of the collision, both players momentarily leave the ground and go out-of-bounds. Given the players are running perpendicular to each other right before the collision, at what speed (in m/s) will they fly out of bounds?

1.Two cars collide at an intersection and stick together. Car A, with a mass of 1200 kg , was going east at vA = 25 m/s before the collision while car B, of mass 1600 kg , was going north at vB = 16 m/s . What is the speed of the cars after the collision? 2.A head-on, elastic collision between two particles with equal initial speed v leaves the more massive particle (mass m1 ) at rest. The less massive particle has mass m2 . Find the ratio of the particle masses. Then find the final speed of the less massive particle.
A mouse who weighs 40g is riding on a 0.25kg frictionless, motorless toy car. The car is coasting at 0.3m/s when the mouse decides to jump off. The mouse wants to jump off so that the car ends up not moving relative to the ground. Draw three momentum bar charts, one for the mouse, one for the car and one for the combined system showing how this could work. What is the speed of the mouse right after he jumps? State any equations that you use.
3. Bob and Linda are sweethearts that enjoy skating arm in arm. Bob has a mass of 85 kg and Linda has a mass of 60 kg. Initially they are skating together with a speed of 3.0 m/s. Then Bob whispers a dirty joke into Linda's ear, causing her to push him in the oppposite direction of their motion. If Bob's final speed is 1.0 m/s, what is Linda's final speed?

When analyzing collisions using the law of conservation of momentum, the same principles that allow us to analyze collisions in one dimension can also be used to analyze collisions in two dimensions. To do this, you must separately apply the law of conservation of momentum in the x- and y-directions. Use the following example to practice this process: Two football players are about to collide with one another. Player 1 has a mass of 98.1 kg and is moving with a velocity of 4.52 m/s, 21.5° east of north. Player 2 has a mass of 79.4 kg and is moving with a velocity of 5.15 m/s, 8.55° east of south. Find the x- and y-components of the momentum of each player. What is the sum of the momenta in each dimension? If, when the players collide, they hold onto each other and move as a single unit, what will be the velocity vector of that single unit? Suppose that the two players collide, and bounce off each other. If player 2 is sent backwards with a velocity of 1.77 m/s, 15.5° west of north,…
1) Two cars approach an intersection. James is driving his 550 Spyder (ms = 775 kg) due east at 22.0 m/s. Natalie is driving her Eldorado (mg = 2350 kg) due south at 10.0 m/s. James sees Natalie at the last minute and turns 20.0° to the south just before impact. They collide, and the cars stick together. Immediately after the collision, what is the speed of the cars?
Two cars are approaching a perpendicular intersection without a stop sign. Car 1 has a mass m₁ = 800 kg and is heading north at V₁ 15 m/s. Car 2 has mass m2 = 700 kg and is heading west at an unknown speed v2. The two cars collide at the intersection, and stick together as a result of the collision. The police report stated that after the collision, the two cars moved together in a direction 40° west of north and stopped after sliding d 35 m from the collision point. = = Find the speed of car 2 before the colision. v2 - 18 What is the speed of the cars immediately after the collision? v= 17 m/s X What is the coefficient of kinetic friction between the cars and the pavement? μk = - What is the magnitude of the impulse exerted on car 2 during the collision?
