A lab technician holds a gun near an 8.0-kg wooden block that is initially at rest on a level surface. The technician then fires a 50-g bullet with a horizontal velocity of 800 m/s into the block. When the bullet imbeds itself into the block, the block subsequently moves across the level surface. If the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the surface is 0.70, how far will the block travel along the surface? a. 1.2 m Ob.2.4 m DC. 3.0 m Od.3.6 m Oe. 1.8 m

Alex Morgan, one of America's best forwards, kicks a 450. g soccer ball that was moving towards her at a speed of 12.0m/s, the impact caused the ball to leave her foot with a velocity of 20.0 m/s in the opposite direction. a. If the impact lasted for 0.250s, what force (magnitude and direction) did Alex exert on the soccer ball? b. What is one thing that she could do to make the soccer ball have a larger change in momentum?

Jill threw a dodgeball completely horizontal in x-direction with velocity of +5 m/s and mass of .5 kg. At the same time her friend threw a dodgeball with the same mass in the -x direction and a velocity of -2 m/s. The balls hit each other, and Jill's ball was deflected 30° above the original path, while her friend's deflected 20⁰. below the initial path. a. Ignoring gravity, solve the velocity of each ball after the collision, using a free body diagram. b. If both balls had a magnitude of 3 m/s, how much kinetic energy was "lost" during the collision?
