Three runaway train cars are moving on a frictionless, horizontal track in a railroad yard as shown in Figure P11.73. The first car, with mass m1 = 1.50 103 kg, is moving to the right with speed v1 = 10.0 m /s; the second car, with mass m2 = 2.50 103 kg, is moving to the left with speed v2 = 5.00 m/s, and the third car, with mass m3 = 1.20 103 kg, is moving to the left with speed v3 = 8.00 m /s. The three railroad cars collide at the same instant and couple, forming a train of three cars. a. What is the final velocity of the train cars immediately after the collision? b. Would the answer to part (a) change if the three cars did not collide at the same instant? Explain. FIGURE P11.73
Review. A bullet of mass m = 8.00 g is fired into a block of mass M = 250 g that is initially at rest at the edge of a frictionless table of height h = 1.00 m (Fig. P9.45). The bullet remains in the block, and after the impact the block lands d = 2.00 m from the bottom of the table. Determine the initial speed of the bullet. Figure P9.45 Problems 45 and 46.
A 5.00-g bullet moving with an initial speed of v = 400 m/s is fired into and passes through a 1.00-kg block as shown in Figure P8.57. The block, initially at rest on a frictionless, horizontal surface, is connected to a spring with force constant 900 N/m. The block moves d = 5.00 cm to the right after impact before being brought to rest by the spring. Find (a) the speed at which the bullet emerges from the block and (b) the amount of initial kinetic energy of the bullet that is converted into internal energy in the bullet-block system during the collision.

A cannon is rigidly attached to a carriage, which can move along horizontal rails but is connected to a post by a large spring, initially unstretchcd and with force constant k = 2.00 104 N/m, as shown in Figure P8.60. The cannon fires a 200-kg projectile at a velocity of 125 m/s directed 45.0 above the horizontal. (a) Assuming that the mass of the cannon and its carriage is 5 000 kg, find the recoil speed of the cannon. (b) Determine the maximum extension of the spring. (c) Find the maximum force the spring exerts on the carriage. (d) Consider the system consisting of the cannon, carriage, and projectile. Is the momentum of this system conserved during the firing? Why or why not?
A tennis ball of mass 57.0 g is held just above a basketball of mass 590 g. With their centers vertically aligned, both balls are released from rest at the same time, falling through a distance of 1.20 m, as shown in Figure P6.45. (a) Find the magnitude of the basketballs velocity the instant before the basketball reaches the ground. (b) Assume that an elastic collision with the ground instantaneously reverses the velocity of the basketball so that it collides with the tennis ball just above it.

(a) Figure P9.36 shows three points in the operation of the ballistic pendulum discussed in Example 9.6 (and shown in Fig. 9.10b). The projectile approaches the pendulum in Figure P9.36a. Figure P9.36b shows the situation just after the projectile is captured in the pendulum. In Figure P9.36c, the pendulum arm has swung upward and come to rest momentarily at a height A above its initial position. Prove that the ratio of the kinetic energy of the projectilependulum system immediately after the collision to the kinetic energy immediately before is m1|/(m1 + m2). (b) What is the ratio of the momentum of the system immediately after the collision to the momentum immediately before? (c) A student believes that such a large decrease in mechanical energy must be accompanied by at least a small decrease in momentum. How would you convince this student of the truth?

(c) The ballpendulum combination swings up through a height h before coming to rest.
