A 0.018-kg bullet is fired into a stationary block of wood of mass of 4.95 kg. The relative speed of the bullet with respect to the wood is zero after collision (The bullet becomes embedded in the block of wood). What is the speed of the bullet-plus-wood combination immediately after collision if the speed of the bullet before collision is 469 m/s? Express your answer in two decimal places and with units of m/s.

Two billiard balls of identical mass move toward each other as shown in the figure. Assume that the collision between them is perfectly elastic. If the initial velocities of the balls are v1i = +34.3 cm/s and v2i = −20.1 cm/s, what are the velocities of the balls after the collision? Assume friction and rotation are unimportant. (Indicate the direction with the sign of your answer.) v1f = cm/s v2f = cm/s
It is generally a good idea to gain an understanding of the size of units. Consider each object and calculate the magnitude of their momentum in SI units. A ladybug with mass 28.50 milligrams flies by your head at 3.75 km/h. magnitude of the momentum: kg-m/s A 37.90 km boy walks at 4.05 km/h. magnitude of the momentum: kg-m/s A car with mass 841 kg is moving at a speed of 41.3 km/h. magnitude of the momentum: kg-m/s
A 10 kg medicine ball is thrown at a velocity of 15 km/hr to a 50 kg skater who is at rest on ice. The skater catches the ball and subsequently slides with the ball across the ice. Consider the skater and the ball as two separate parts of an isolated system. Based on conservation of momentum, fill in the momentum chart. Do NOT include units. Include a negative sign where appropriate. Momentum Before Collision Momentum After Collision 4 Momentum Change Ball 1 Skater 2 8 Total 3. 3 4 6 8. 9. 1,
