A 15-g bullet is shot vertically into an 2-kg block. The block lifts upward 8.0 mm (see the figure). The bullet penetrates the block and comes to rest in it in a time interval of 0.0010 s. Assume the force on the bullet is constant during penetration and that air resistance is negligible. The initial kinetic energy of the bullet is closest to 171 0.0012 J. O 21 J. O 0.16 J.
Problem: You are lead engineer on the design of a crash test apparatus that verifies collisions of varying types. A m = 2 kg mass, when suspended above from a light-weight wire of L = 1.5 m, is first released at an angle of 90°, and correspondingly a height h = L. The tethered ball swings toward the waiting block of M = 4 kg. collides, then rebounds back to an angle of 0 = 32°. In this case, the collision between m and M is elastic, which prompts M's rightwards motion a distance of Ax = 2.1 m, from which the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and surface on which it is slid is determined. m L h 0 M

a block with a mass of 0.5 kg is released from rest on a frictionless track at a distance 2.5m above the top of the table. it then collides elastically with an object having mass m2=1.0kg that is initially at rest on the table as shown in the figure. the table is h2=2.oo m . a)How far away from the bottom of the table do the objects land ? Hints : determine the velocities just after the collision . how high does object 1 travel back up the track. b) suppose the collision is inelastic , where does combined object land please see attached image

As it is sliding across ice, an internal explosion breaks an 80 kg object into two pieces. One piece has a mass of 33 kg and moves off with a speed of 15 m/s at an angle of 40° relative to the initial path of the object. If the object was initially moving at 20 m/s.

a 600 gram banana sliding north on a frictionless table at 2.5 meters per second bounces of a 400 gram kiwi fruit that is initially at rest , after colliding the banana continues moving north at 0.5 meters per second. At the North edge of the track is a frictionless inclined ramp which the kiwi fruit slides up to then the kiwi comes back down the ramp , without losing energy , and will now be moving south , the kiwi will catch up and hit the banana again. How much momentum did the kiwi have just before the sticky collision ? how much just after ? how much did the kiwis momentum change ?
