Question

A 100-g firecracker is launched vertically into the air and explodes into two pieces at the peak of its
trajectory. If a 72-g piece is projected horizontally to the left at 17 m/s
what is the speed of the other piece? (absolute value)
How much energy is released by the explosion, assuming it all goes to the fragments.

Two masses, m, and m, move on the xy plane towards each other as shown in the figure. The first mass m,=1.1kg is moving with a speed v,=6.7m/s while m,-4.3kg is moving with a speed v,=10.6m/s . As a result of the collision m, comes to rest. What is the final speed of m,? Express your answer using two decimal places. Before the collision
A block of mass mm = 16 kgkg has a speed VV and is behind a block of mass MM = 65 kgkg that has a speed of 0.5 m/sm/s. The surface is frictionless. The blocks collide and couple. After the collision, the blocks have a common speed of 0.9 m/sm/s. In the figure, the loss of kinetic energy of the blocks due to the collision is closest to: 7.7 J 25 J 26 J 9.3 J 76 J
In a very busy off-campus eatery, one chef sends a 201 g broccoli-tomato-pickle-onion-mushroom pizza sliding down the counter from left to right at 1.79 m/s. Almost simultaneously, the other chef launches a 335 g veggie burger (with everything, but hold the horseradish) along the same counter from right to left at 2.47 m/s. The two delicacies collide head-on at the given speeds. The counter is practically friction-free due to accumulated grease. The two delicacies merge into a single, unbelievably savory serving. In what direction does the merged meal move, if it moves at all? A) does not move B) to the right C) to the left At what speed does it move in m/s? Enter a positive number.
