A student is trying to optimize the exhaust shape of a rocket. They designed a new shape, and are trying to figure out how fast it allows the burning fuel to flow out of the rocket. The student takes a rockets that weighs 19.91 kg empty and loads 7.63 kg of fuel. The student aims the rocket horizontally, lights it, and watches it take off. The rocket exhausts the fuel before dropping to the ground. Right before the fuel is exhausted, the student - equipped with a speedometer - observes the velocity x- component of the rocket is 24.88 m/s. Assuming no air drag, perfect rocket efficiency, and constant mass flow, what was the speed of the ejected fuel relative to the rocket? Include units in SI

From what might be a possible scene in the comic book The X-Men, the Juggernaut (mJ) is charging into Colossus (mC) and the two collide. The initial speed of the Juggernaut is vJi and the initial speed of Colossus is vCi. After the collision, the final speed of the Juggernaut is vJf and the final speed of Colossus is vCf as they each bounce off of the other, heading in opposite directions. a. What is the impulse experienced by the Juggernaut? b. What is the impulse experienced by Colossus? c. In your own words, explain how these impulses must compare with each other and how they are related to the average force each superhero experiences during the collision.
A 25.0 gram bullet enters a 2.35kg watermelon and embeds itself in the watermelon. The melon is immediately set into motion with a speed of 3.82m/s.Thebullet remains lodged inside the melon. What was the entry speed of the bullet
A 10 g bullet is fired into a 1.0 kg wood block, where it lodges. Subsequently, the block slides 4.2 m across a wood floor (uk = 0.2). What was the bullet's speed. Use g = 10 N/kg.
Bailey is on the tenth frame of her recent bowling competition and she needs to pick up the last pin for a spare and the first place trophy. She rolls the 7.05-kg ball down the lane and it hits the 1.52-kg pin head-on. The ball was moving at 8.24 m/s before the collision. The pin went flying forward at 13.2 m/s. Determine the post-collision speed of the ball. Answer: m/s

Robert has just bought a new model rocket, and is trying to measure its flight characteristics. The rocket engine package claims that it will maintain a constant thrust of 11.4 N11.4 N until the engine is used up. Robert launches the rocket on a windless day, so that it travels straight up, and uses his laser range‑finder to meaure that the height of the rocket when the engine cuts off is 12.4 m12.4 m . He also measures the rocket's peak height, which is 16.9 m16.9 m . If the rocket has a mass of 0.763 kg0.763 kg , how much work is done by the drag force on the rocket during its ascent?
A ball with mass mA = 2.42 g moves eastward with speed vA = 1.73 m/s. It then collides with another ball of mass mB = 1.25 g and is moving northward with a speed vB = 2.26 m/s. After the collision, ball A now moves at 48° north of east, while ball B moves at 17° south of east. A. What are the speeds of the two balls after the collision? B. Is energy lost or gained in the system? Support your answer by calculating the change in mechanical energy of the system.
A 12.0 g bullet was fired horizontally into a 1 kg block of wood. The bullet initially had a speed of 250 m/s. The block of wood was hanging from a 2 m long piece of (massless) string. After the collision the block/bullet combined object swings upward on the string. Find the height the block/bullet combined object rises. O 0.27 m O 0.45m 0.35 m 0.12 m 0.66 m
