During a neighborhood baseball game in a vacant lot, a particularly wild hit sends a 0.147 kg baseball crashing through the pane of a second-floor window in a nearby building. The ball strikes the glass at 15.5 m/s, shatters the glass as it passes through, and leaves the window at 10.5 m/s with no change of direction.

A 3.00-g bullet is fired horizontally into a 10.0-kg block of wood suspended by a rope from the ceiling. The bullet becomes embedded in the wood, and, as the result, the block swings up in an arc, like a ballistic pendulum, rising 3.00 mm above its original position. Which of the following is the closest to the initial speed of the bullet? Group of answer choices a. 235 m/s b. 24.3 m/s c. 75.0 m/s d. 811 m/s e. Cannot be determined since the heat generated in the collision is unknown
Current Attempt in Progress Multiple-Concept Example 7 deals with some of the concepts that are used to solve this problem. A cue ball (mass = 0.165 kg) is at rest on a frictionless pool table. The ball is hit dead center by a pool stick, which applies an impulse of +1.47 N-s to the ball. The ball then slides along the table and makes an elastic head-on collision with a second ball of equal mass that is initially at rest. Find the velocity of the second ball just after it is struck.

A 0.13 kg baseball has a momentum of p = 11 kg*m/s as it is pitched toward home plate. A 4.2 kg bat swings at the baseball with a momentum of 28 kg*m/s and is in contact with the ball for 0.06 s. Assume the batter doesn't follow through like they should but instead the bat is at rest immediately after being in contact with the baseball (like bunting it). a.What is the magnitude of the velocity of the baseball just before coming in contact with the bat? b.What is the magnitude of the velocity of the baseball immediately after being struck by the bat? c.What is the magnitude of the impulse on the ball?

V ? A hockey puck of mass 4m has been rigged to explode, as part of a practical joke. Initially the puck is at rest on a frictionless ice rink. Then it bursts into three pieces. One chunk, of mass m, slides across the ice at speed v. Another chunk, of mass 2m, slides across the ice at speed 2v, in a direction at right angles to the direction of the first piece. From this information, find the velocity of the final chunk. Initally at rest

You drop a steel ball and a clay ball, both of the same mass, from the same distance. The steel ball strikes the ground and rebounds with almost the same speed. The clay ball strikes the ground and sticks. Assume the collisions occur over roughly the same amount of time. Which ball exerted a greater force on the ground? Select the correct answer with the best explanation. A. The two exert the same force. Since they collide with the same initial momentum, they will exert thesame force.B. The clay ball exerts the greater force. Since it starts with some momentum and ends with no momen- tum, it undergoes a greater change in momentum than the steel ball, which rebounds with the same momentum (no change).C. The clay ball exerts the greater force. All of its energy is transferred to the floor, whereas the steelball rebounds with the same kinetic energy, doing no work on the floor.D. The steel ball exerts the greater force. Since it starts with some momentum and it reverses the direction of…
