In the figure, block 1 of mass m1 slides from rest along a frictionless ramp from height h and then collides with stationary block 2, which has mass m2 = 3m1. After the collision, block 2 slides into a region where the coefficient of kinetic friction is μk and comes to a stop in distance d within that region. What is the value of distance d if the collision is (a) elastic and (b) completely inelastic? Express your answer in terms of the variables given and g.
In a ballistic pendulum experiment, a small marble is fired into a cup attached to the end of a pendulum. If the mass of the marble is 0.0235 kg and the mass of the pendulum is 0.250 kg, how high ℎ will the pendulum swing if the marble has an initial speed of 5.95 m/s? Assume that the mass of the pendulum is concentrated at its end so that linear momentum is conserved during this collision.
