7. The high-speed 300-series Shinkansen trains of Japan consist of 16 alu- minum cars with a combined mass of 7.10 x 10 kg. The reduction in mass from the 100-series trains enables the 300-series trains to reach a top speed of 270 km/h. What is the magnitude of a 300-series train's momentum at its top speed? hint: 270 km/h = 75 m/s

Momentum: A radioactive nucleus is at rest when it spontaneously decays by emitting an electron and neutrino (as shown in the figure below ). The momentum of the electron is 8.10 x 10−19 kg·m/s and it is directed at right angles to that of the neutrino. The neutrino's momentum has magnitude 5.09 x 10−19 kg·m/s. In what direction does the newly formed (daughter) nucleus recoil? What is the momentum? Let the electron direction be along the positive x-axis and find the direction of nucleus recoil with respect to the electron's direction.
A ball weighing 10 kg is initially at rest, then suddenly explodes into 3 pieces. The picture shows the length and direction for each one of the three velocities. What were the length and direct of the ball before the explosion? Hint : use the momentum conservation principle on the y axis and x axis.

3: A rail engine weighs four times as much as a freight car. The engine coasts at 7 km/h into afreight car that was already coasting in the opposite direction at 1 km/h. The freight car’s mass is1000.00 kg. The engine couples together with the freight car.a) Find the initial total momentum of the (engine + freight car) system.b) What was the total kinetic energy of the system? (For KE it does not matter whether an object ismoving to the right or to the left.)c) Find the velocity of the (engine + freight car) system after they couple together.d) What is the final kinetic energy of the system? (The answer may be different from that in part B)

In reviewing her lab book, a physics student finds the following description of a collision: " a 4 kg air hockey puck with an initial speed of 6 m/s to the right collided head on with a 1 kg puck moving to the left at the same speed. After the collision, both pucks traveled to the right, the 4 kg puck at 2 m/s and the 1 kg puck at 10 m/a." Is momentum conserved in this description? Is kinetic energy conserved on this description ? Could this collision actually have taken place as described? Source: physics: a conceptual world view
