Figure shows two chunks of ice sliding on the surface of a frictionless frozen pond. Chunck A, with mass m, = 5 kg, moves initially with a velocity VA = 2 m/s, parallei the x axis. It collides with chunk B, which has mass m, = 3 kg and is initially at rest After the collision, the velocity A is found to be VAr=i m/s in direction at an angle 30° with the initial direction. What is the final velocity of B, magnitude and direction

A puck of mass miis moving along a frictionless table at speed viin the +x- direction when it is hit simultaneously by 2lumps of clay, each of mass m2. Both lumps are traveling at a speed of v2when they hit the puck. One is traveling in the -x-direction, while the other one is dropped from above the table in the -y-direction. The puck and lumps of clay stick together. What is the speed of the puck and clay after the collision? Express your answer in terms of mim2v1and v2only. HINT: Write down the initial momentum of the puck m1. In which direction(s) is momentum conserved(i.e. in which direction(s) is there no net external force? Keep in mind that the table can provide an external normal force).Add the momenta of the lump(s) of clay for which momentum is conserved to your initial momentum. At the end of the day, the puck and both lumps of clay stick together so the final momentum is pf=(m1+m2+m2)vf. Set the initial and final momenta equal to each other and solve forvf.

A 2-kg pellet travels with velocity 20 m/s to the right when it collides with a 38-kg hanging mass which is initially at rest. After the collision, the pellet remains lodged in the hanging mass, i.e., it is a completely inelastic collision. The hanging mass (+pellet) then swings upward and reaches a maximum height hmax before swinging downward again. Assume that no external forces are present and therefore the momentum of the system is conserved. What is the velocity vf of the hanging mass + pellet immediately after the collision? What is the final kinetic energy Kf of the hanging mass + pellet immediately after the collision? What is the maximum height hmax of the swinging hanging mass + pellet in centimeters?
