Initially, bumper car 1 is traveling to the east at 5.70 m/s, and bumper car 2 is traveling 79.1° south of west at 4.25 m/s.

A large block of mass 3.80 kg slides on a frictionless table and collides head-on with a small block of mass 2.50 kg. After the collision both blocks move in the same direction as the original motion of the large block, and fall off the edge of the table. The small block hits the floor at a point 2.18 meters horizontally from the edge of the table, while the large block hits the floor at a point 1.38 meters horizontally from the edge of the table. The top of the table is 1.10 m above the floor. Find the speed, in m/s, of the large block before the collision.
In a ballistic pendulum experiment, a small marble is fired into a cup attached to the end of a pendulum. If the mass of the marble is 0.0235 kg and the mass of the pendulum is 0.250 kg, how high h will the pendulum swing if the marble has an initial speed of 5.65 m/s? Assume that the mass of the pendulum is concentrated at its end so that linear momentum is conserved during this collision. h = m
