A 8.15-g bullet is moving horizontally with a velocity of +352 m/s, where the sign + indicates that it is moving to the right (see part a of the drawing). The bullet is approaching two blocks resting on a horizontal frictionless surface. Air resistance is negligible.

A billiard player sends the cue ball toward a group of three balls that are initially at rest and in contact with one another. After the cue ball strikes the group, the four balls scatter, each traveling in a different direction with different speeds as shown in the figure below. If each ball has the same mass, 0.16 kg, determine the total momentum of the system consisting of the four balls immediately after the collision. (Assume v1 = 0.33 m/s, ?1 = 70°, v2 = 0.49 m/s, ?2 = 30°, v3 = 0.23 m/s, v4 = 0.48 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
A watermelon is blown into three pieces by a large firecracker. Two pieces of equal mass m fly away perpendicular to one another, one in the x direction another in the y direction. Both of these pieces fly away with a speed of V = 23 m/s. The third piece has three times the mass of the other two pieces. Write an expression for the speed of the larger piece, that is in terms of only the variable V. What is the numeric value for the speed of the larger piece, in meters per second? At what angle does the largest piece travel with respect to the -y axis, in degrees?
