Two friends are playing pool at arcade center. One guy hit the cue ball to strike at another ball where it is initially at rest. After the collision caused by the ball that was at rest, the cue ball moves at 2.50 m/s along a line making an angle 0-14.0° with its original direction of motion and the second ball has a speed of 1.50 m/s. Find the answer for Part a,b and c. Part A: Find the angle e between the direction of the motion of the second ball and the original direction of motion of the cue ball. Part B: Find the cue ball's original speed? Part C: Figure out whether kinetic energy is conserved?
For a safe reentry into Earth's atmosphere, the pilots of a space capsule must reduce their speed from 2.60 x 104 m/s to 1.10 × 104 m/s. The rocket engine produces a backward force on the capsule of 1.80 x 105 N. The mass of the capsule is 3280 kg. For how long must they fire their engine? Ignore the change in mass of the capsule due to the expulsion of exhaust gases.
Two students hold a large bed sheet vertically between them. A third student, who happens to be the star pitcher on the baseball team, throws a raw egg at the center of the sheet. Explain why the egg does not break when it hits the sheet, regardless of the initial speed of the egg.
You wake up one morning to find yourself in a strange room with opaque walls, and no visible doors or windows. You decide to do some experiments to find out more about your strange situation. Your own body mass is 59.1 kg. This time you drop a ball from a height of 1.93 m and it hits the floor 0.251 s after you drop it. This time you suspect you are on a rocket that has just left the surface of the Earth, and is still not too far above the ground. What do you deduce the rocket s acceleration to be? 82.4 m/s^2 51.5 m/s^2 71.1 m/s^2 61.3 m/s^2
A 2.0 kg ball traveling at 1.0 m/s strikes a 3.0 kg ball which is at rest. After an elastic collision, the 2.0 kg ball is traveling in a direction 45 degreesleft of its original path. Set up equations that could be solved to find the velocity of the first ball and the speed and direction of the second ball.
Two blocks with masses m1 = 0.20 kg and m2 = 0.60 kg start at opposite ends of a frictionlessU-shaped track, although not necessarily at the same height as one another. After being released from rest,they slide down the track and then collide with one another where the track is level. After the collision,both blocks are at rest. Block 1 descends a total height h1 = 36 cm. The collision between blocks takes 0.06 s. Find the magnitude of the average force of block 2 on Block1 Is energy conserved during the collision? Support your answer with a conceptual argument or acalculation. Find the value of h2, the height that block 2 descended.
Janet is skating at the ice rink with her little sister Sarah who is initially standing at rest on the ice. Janet then collides head-on into Sarah. Janet continues forward at 1 m/s, while Sarah is thrown backward at 3 m/s. (After the collision, Janet and Sarah are moving in the same direction). Janet’s mass is 55 kg and Sarah’s mass is 39 kg. How fast was Janet moving initially, in m/s?
A 170-g billiard ball is shot toward an identical ball at velocity vi = 6.90 m/s.The identical ball is initially at rest. After the balls hit, one of them travels with velocity v1, f = (1.65 + 2.10) m/s. What is the velocity of the second ball after the impact? Ignore effects of friction during this process. (Express your answer in vector form.)
A space probe is traveling in outer space with a momentum that has a magnitude of 3.04 x 107 kg·m/s. A retrorocket is fired to slow down the probe. It applies a force to the probe that has a magnitude of 1.19 x 106 N and a direction opposite to the probe's motion. It fires for a period of 8.86 s. Determine the momentum of the probe after the retrorocket ceases to fire.
Two masses are held against springs, each are compressed by 25.0 cm. Both are released from rest, travel across the frictionless ground, and stick together when they collide. Find the velocity (magnitude and direction) of both masses right after the collision. m2 = 350 g ki = 42.5 N/m k2 = 30.0 N/m m, = 200 g 25.0 cm 25.0 cm 9.
Anthony is just relaxing since its summer vacation and actually put on some weight too and is now 90 kg. He decides to hit up Lake Thunderbird in his 40 kg boat and chill. Anthony reaches the center of the lake and stops moving and then decides to start fishing. He starts to fish but accidentally threw the 10kg pole at 5 m/s horizontally away from him. Suddenly, the boat starts moving. What is the velocity (magnitude and direction) of Anthony and the boat if the water really doesn’t have much friction with the boat?
