Ball 1 has a mass of 2.0 kg and is suspended with a 3.0 m rope from a post so that the ball is stationary. Ball 2 has a mass of 4.0 kg and is tied to another rope. The second rope also measures 3.0 m but is held at a 60.00 angle, as shown in Figure below. When ball 2 is released, it collides head-on, with ball 1 in an elastic collision.

The pendulum apparatus in the video has a total mass of 578 grams. The pendulum rod has a small mass of 20 grams so you can treat all the mass of the pendulum as if it were hanging at the end which is called the “bob”. The mass of the rod should be taken into account in determining the center of mass of the apparatus which is 71.3 cm (not the length of the pendulum). A marble which hass a mass of 10 g is fired at the pendulum bob which has clay on it which allows the marble to stick to it. Derive a formula for measuring the velocity of the marble (vm) as a function of the mass of the marble mm, the mass of the marble/bob mmb and the velocity of the marble and bob vmb using the conservation of momentum.
A bullet of mass m = 8.00 g is fired into a block of mass M = 240 g that is initially at rest at the edge of a table of height h = 1.00 m (see figure below). The bullet remains in the block, and after the impact the block lands d = 1.80 m from the bottom of the table. Determine the initial speed of the bullet. m/s
The figure below shows a bullet of mass 15 g traveling horizontally towards the east with speed 250 m/s, which strikes a block of mass 1.5 kg that is initially at rest on a frictionless table. After striking the block, the bullet is embedded in the block and the block and the bullet move together as one unit. What is the energy loss in the system due to this collision
A crate is attached to a winch or pulley that pulls the crate upwards. The crate has a mass of 120 kg and the coefficient of static and kinetic friction between the crate and surface is 0.60 and 0.50, respectively. The crate starts from rest and the surface is measured 30° from the horizontal. If the pulley exerts a tension T = 1220 + 200t, a. What is the impulse applied to the crate during the first second of motion? b. After 1 second, what is the velocity of the crate? c. Compute the power transmitted to the winch after the first second.
Two solid metal balls, M1 = 40 g and M2 = 60 g, are each suspended from 32 cm long chords in a Newton’s Cradle type arrangement as shown in the figure above. The lighter ball is pulled away so that it makes a 57 degrees angle with respect to the vertical and then released. a) What is the maximum angle the heavier ball will make with respect to the vertical after the collision? b) What is the maximum angle the lighter ball will make with respect to the vertical after the collision?
A 2.70-kg ball is shot into a 0.425-kg box that is at rest on a frictionless, horizontal table (see figure below); after the collision, the ball is embedded in the box. The box is attached to a 0.30-m rope that is attached to the table on the other end. The ball's initial velocity is perpendicular to the rope as shown. If the ball's initial speed before impact is 13.2 m/s, what is the tension in the rope after the collision? 0.30 m
As shown in the figure below, two blocks (m1 and m2) are each released from rest at a height of h = 4.63 m on a frictionless track and when they meet on the horizontal section of the track they undergo an elastic collision. If m1 = 2.50 kg and m2 = 4.25 kg, determine the maximum heights (in m) to which they rise after the collision. Use the coordinate system shown in the figure. y1f=____m y2f=____m
A 0.430-kg blue bead slides on a frictionless, curved wire, starting from rest at point O in the figure below, where h = 1.50 m. At point O, the blue bead collides elastically with a 0.640-kg green bead at rest. Find the maximum height the green bead rises as it moves up the wire.

A 1.90 g bullet, traveling at a speed of 423 m/s, strikes the wooden block of a ballistic pendulum. The block has a mass of 228 g. (a) Find the speed of the bullet/block combination immediately after the collision.m/s(b) How high does the combination rise above its initial position?m
Two blocks of masses mA=8.4kg and mB=19kg are placed on a frictionless horizantal surface. A massless spring spring is attached to the more massive block, and the two blocks are pushed together with the spring between them. A cord initially holding the blocks together is cut and after that the blocks move in the opposite directions as shown in the figure below. What is the velocity of the center of mass once the system is released? Please note that the system consists of the two blocks and the spring and the net external force on the system is zero.
Two objects undergo an ELASTIC collision. Object 1 is traveling to the right at 5.0 m/s and has a mass m1 = 3.0 kg. Object 2 of mass m2 = 18.0 kg is traveling to the left at 13.0 m/s. Carefully state the final velocity if each mass.
