To test the impact resistance of a new material, a steel ball is shot through bricks of the material. Two bricks, each with a mass of 1.5 kg, are resting on a frictionless surface, a short distance apart from each other. A steel ball, with a mass of 0.118 kg, is shot into the first brick with a velocity of 174 m/s, and after passing through the first brick, it embeds itself in the second brick. The first brick has a velocity of 1.83 m/s right after the ball leaves. What is the velocity of the second brick with the embedded ball?
A rocket-powered sled sits on a frozen lake bed. The sled has a mass of 210 kg, and the combusting rocket fuel has a mass of 8 kg. In a simplified analysis, we assume that as a result of combustion, the rocket fuel is fired backward at a speed of 160 m/s. What final speed does the sled achieve?
A 38.0-kg boy, riding a 1.90-kg skateboard at a velocity of 5.60 m/s across a level sidewalk, jumps forward to leap over a wall. Just after leaving contact with the board, the boy's velocity relative to the sidewalk is 6.00 m/s, 9.60° above the horizontal. Ignore any friction between the skateboard and the sidewalk. What is the skateboard's velocity relative to the sidewalk at this instant? Be sure to include the correct algebraic sign with your answer.
answer is vf= 1.0 m/s.
A lumberjack is standing on a log floating on a lake. She starts from rest, then runs along the log to the end, when she jumps from the first log onto a second. After landing safely on the second log, she slows down and ends up standing on the second log. Both logs both have masses of 150 kg each and the mass of the lumberjack is 70 kg. The lumberjack reaches a speed of 7.0 m/s relative to the shore during her jump. What is the speed of the lumberjack after she has stopped on the second log? You may assume the drag of the water on the logs is very small. Please answer in units of m/s.
A 46.7-kg person, initially at rest, throws a 0.143-kg snowball forward with a horizontal speed of 33.5 m/s. A second person, with a mass of 47.5 kg, catches the snowball. Both people are on skates. The first person is initially at rest, as mentioned, and the second person is initially moving with a speed of 1.45 m/s toward the first person. Disregard air resistance and the friction between the skates and the ice. Take the direction in which the snowball is thrown to be the positive direction.

Two asteroids of equal mass collide in an ellastic collision. Asteroid A has an initial velocity of 40 m/s. After the collision, asteroid A deflects an an angle of 30° above its initial direction. Asteroid B is initially at rest. After the collision, asteroid B travels at 45° below the original direction of asteroid A. What are the final speeds of the two asteroids?

An astronaut comes loose while outside the spacecraft and finds himself floating away from the spacecraft with only a big bag of tools. In desperation, the astronaut throws his bag of tools in the direction of his motion (away from the space station). The astronaut has a mass of 102 kg and the bag of tools has a mass of 10.0 kg. If the astronaut is moving away from the space station at 1.80 m/s initially, what is the minimum final speed of the bag of tools (with respect to the space station) that will keep the astronaut from drifting away forever? minimum final speed: m/s

A 500-g lump of clay was moving through the air at a speed of 8.00 m/s when it hit and got stuck to 1.00 kg wooden block, initially at rest on the floor. Assuming negligible friction between the wooden block and the floor, with what speed do the clay and wooden block moved together?
A baseball player pitches a fastball toward home plate at a speed of 41.0 m/s. The batter swings, connects with the ball of mass 290 g, and hits it so that the ball leaves the bat with a speed of 37.0 m/s.
