In principle, when you fire a rifle, the recoil should push you backward. How big a push will it give? Let's find out by doing a calculation in a very artificial situation. Suppose a man standing on frictionless ice fires a rifle horizontally. The mass of the man together with the rifle is 70 kg, and the mass of the bullet is 10 g. If the bullet leaves the muzzle at a speed of 500 m/s, what is the final speed of the man?
A firecracker of mass 5.00 kg is shot up in the air and is traveling upwards with speed vi when it explodes into two pieces: a m1 = 2.00 kg piece which is expelled horizontally with a speed of v1 = 24.0 m/s, and a m2 = 3.00 kg piece which is expelled with a speed v2 at an angle θ = 45° from the horizontal. What was the speed vi of the firecracker at the moment before it exploded? a. 9.6 m/s b. 6.8 m/s c. 19.2 m/s d. 13.6 m/s
17. In the arrangement of the figure, billiard ball 1 moving at a speed of 1.95 m/s undergoes a glancing collision with identical billiard ball 2 that is at rest. After the collision, ball 2 moves at speed 1.01 m/s, at an angle of 02 = 58.7°. What are (a) the magnitude and (b) the direction (angle 01) of the velocity of ball 1 after the collision? 18. A 3.5 kg object moving at 5.1 m/s in the positive direction of an x axis has a one-dimensional elastic collision with an object of mass M, initially at rest. After the collision the object of mass M has a velocity of 5.0 m/s in the positive direction of the x axis. What is mass M?
An archer shoots an 18.0-gram arrow at a 43.0-gram target on a wall 32.0 m high. If the arrow is shot at a velocity of v0 = 60.0 m/s, what is the speed of the arrow when it reaches the target? If the arrow is embedded in the target and they both fly off the wall together, Would this be an elastic or inelastic collision? At what speed will they leave the wall? (As before, the mass of the arrow is 18.0 grams, and the mass of the target is 43.0 grams)

The figure below shows a man in a boat on a lake. The man's mass is 73 kg, and the boat's is 138 kg. The man and boat are initially at rest when the man throws a package of mass m = 15 kg horizontally to the right with a speed of v, = 5.0 m/s. What is the velocity of the boat after the package is thrown? Neglect any resistance force from the water.

A fireworks rocket is moving at a speed of v = 44.0 m/s. The rocket suddenly breaks into two pieces of equal mass, which fly off with velocities v1 at an angle of theta1 = 31.5° and v2 at an angle of theta2 = 58.5° as shown in the drawing below. What is the magnitude of v1?
In Figure (1), a 3.50 g bullet is fired horizontally at two blocks at rest on a frictionless table. The bullet passes through block 1 (mass 1.36 kg) and embeds itself in block 2 (mass 2.03 kg). The blocks end up with speeds v₁ = 0.680 m/s and v₂ = 1.50 m/s (see Figure (2)). Neglecting the material removed from block 1 by the bullet, find the speed of the bullet as it (a) leaves and (b) enters block 1. 1 (1) (2) Frictionless
The carbon isotope 14C is used for carbon dating of archaeological artefacts. 14C decays to 14N by a process known as beta decay, in which the nucleus emits an electron (also known as a beta particle) and a subatomic particle called a neutrino. In one such decay, the electron and the neutrino are emitted in opposite directions to each other. The electron has a speed of 5 × 107 m/s and the neutrino has a momentum of 7 × 10-24 kg m/s. What is the recoil speed (in m/s) of the resulting 14N nucleus? (Take the mass of the carbon-14 and nitrogen-14 nuclei to be 2.34 × 10-26 kg and the mass of the electron to be 9.11 × 10-31 kg. If you were aware of such things and concerned, please ignore relativistic effects.)
A block of mass m = 3.5 kg, moving on a frictionless surface with a speed Vmo = 6.2 m/s makes a sudden perfectly elastic collision with a second block of mass M, as shown in the figure. The second block is originally at rest (VMO = 0). Just after the collision, the 3.5-kg block recoils (moves left) with a speed of Vm1 = 1.5 m/s and the unknown mass block moves right with a speed of VM1 = 2.1 m/s. What is the mass M of the second block? m M m M before after
In a ballistic pendulum experiment, a small marble is fired into a cup attached to the end of a pendulum. If the mass of the marble is 0.0295 kg and the mass of the pendulum is 0.250 kg, how high h will the pendulum swing if the marble has an initial speed of 5.75 m/s? Assume that the mass of the pendulum is concentrated at its end so that linear momentum is conserved during this collision. .0174 h = Incorrect
