In Chapter 3 we saw that the electric forces acting between neighboring atoms behave very much like springs, with the spring stiffness being in the range of up to a few tens of Newtons per meter. Consider a molecule made up of two atoms of the same kind, each atom having a mass of 6.5 x 10-27 kg. Suppose that the center of the spring does not move, in which case you can model the motion of one of the atoms as that of a single atom connected to a half-length spring. If we should observe that a gas of these molecules emits photons whose energies are integer multiples of 2.4 x 10-2 eV, what would be the stiffness of the half-length "spring"? half-length k, = i N/m

You're rolling solid rubber balls on the kitchen floor. Ball 1 has a density of 1.16 × 103 kg/m3 and a radius of 28.0 mm. Ball 2 has an unknown density and a radius of 43.0 mm and is initially at rest. You roll ball 1 at an initial speed of 3.00 m/s, and the two balls collide head-on. Ball 1 reverses direction and comes back to you at 2.00 m/s, and after the collision, the speed of ball 2 is 1.00 m/s. The positive x axis is in the direction of ball 1's initial motion. A.What is the magnitude of the initial momentum of ball 1? Express your answer with the appropriate units. B. What is the magnitude of the final momentum of ball 1? Express your answer with the appropriate units. C. What is the magnitude of the initial momentum of ball 2? Express your answer with the appropriate units.

A ball is attached to one end of a vwire, the other end being fastened to the ceiling. The wire is held horizontal, and the ball is released from rest (see the drawing). It swings downward and strikes a block initially at rest on a horizontal frictionless surface. Air resistance is negligible, and the collision is elastic. The masses of the ball and block are, respectively, 1.7 kg and 2.5 kg, and the length of the wire is 1.23 m. Find the velocity (magnitude and direction) of the ball (a) just before the collision, and (b) just after the collision. (a) v = i (b) v = i > >
