1. In an experiment, you throw a rubber ball of mass m = 25.0 g onto a block of mass M = 250 g that is initially at rest at the edge of a table of height h = 0.98 m. (Figure) The ball bounces back with a speed of 1.01 m/s, and the block eventually lands at d = 1.02 m from the bottom of the table. What is the speed of the ball, right before it hits the block?

云 HI 5 F. %24 -10 Part A Jeanette is playing in a 9-ball pool tournament. She will win if she sinks the 9-ball from the final rack, so she needs to line up her shot precisely. Both the cue ball and the 9-ball have mass m, and the cue ball is hit at an initial speed of v. Jeanette carefully hits the cue ball into the 9-ball off center, so that when the balls collide, they move away from each other at the same angle 0 from the direction in which the cue ball was originally traveling (see figure). Furthermore, after the collision, the cue ball moves away at speed vf, while the 9-ball moves at speed vp. (Figure 1) Find the angle 0 that the 9-ball travels away from the horizontal, as shown in the figure. Express your answer in degrees to three significant figures. > View Available Hint(s) For the purposes of this problem, assume that the collision is perfectly elastic, neglect friction, and ignore the spinning of the balls.

1.) A car (mass=400 kg) is traveling down a country road (speed is 10 m/s) when it collides with a deer (mass=200 kg) which is running in the opposite direction (speed is 2 m/s). The collision results in the deer getting stuck on the windshield. Treat this collision using the 'conservation of momentum' principle: a) Draw a sketch - label each MASS and each VELOCITY (with arrows for direction). b) Calculate the final speed of the car (remember the deer is stuck on top of the car) after collision (Note: they stick together to form a single mass)
