In Section 1.4, we considered the collision of a karate expert’s hand with a concrete block. Based on the graphs in Figure 1.31, the initial downward speed of the fist with mass 0.75 kg is about -13 m/s and the collision time is approximately 25 ms. Find the impulse and the average force exerted on the block by the fist during the collision.

A dart of mass m is fired at and sticks into a block of mass M that is initially at rest on a rough, horizontal surface. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the surface is k. After the collision, the dart and the block slide a distance D before coming to rest. If the dart were fired horizontally, what would its speed be immediately before impact with the block?
Check Your Understanding Would the ball’s change of momentum have been larger, smaller, or the same, if it had collided with the floor and stopped (without bouncing)?

The figure below shows a bullet of mass 200 g traveling horizontally towards the east with speed 400 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. a. What is the magnitude and direction of the velocity of the block/bullet combination immediately after the impact? b. What is the magnitude and direction of the impulse by the block on the bullet? c. What is the magnitude and direction of the impulse from the bullet on the block? d. If it took 3 ms for the bullet to change the speed from 400 m/s to the final speed after impact, what is the average force between the block and the bullet during this time?
In a “Top Fail” video (https://openstaxcollege.org/l/21topfailvideo), two women run at each other and collide by hitting exercise balls together. If each woman has a mass of 50 kg, which includes the exercise ball, and one woman runs to the right at 2.0 m/s and the other is running toward her at 1.0 m/s, (a) how much total kinetic energy is there in the system? (b) If energy is conserved after the collision and each exercise ball has a mass of 2.0 kg, how fast would the balls fly off toward the camera?
Two particles of masses m1 and m2 , move uniformly in different circles of radii R1 and R2 R2 about origin in the x, y-plane. The x- and y-coordinates of the center of mass and that of particle 1 are given as follows (where length is in meters and tin seconds): x1(t)=4cos(2t) , y1(t)=4sin(2t) and: xCM(t)=4cos(2t) , yCM(t)=3sin(2t) . a. Find the radius of the circle in which particle 1 moves. b. Find the x- and y-coordinates of particle 2 and the radius of the circle this particle moves.

Initially, ball 1 rests on an incline of height h, and ball 2 rests on an incline of height h/2 as shown in Figure P11.40. They are released from rest simultaneously and collide in the trough of the track. If m2 = 4 m1 and the collision is elastic, find an expression for the velocity of each ball immediately after the collision. FIGURE P11.40 Problems 40 and 41.
