A ball of mass 2.00-kg is traveling in the positive x-direction at 10.0 m/s and obliquely collides with a 3.00-kg ball that was initially at rest. After the collision, the 2.00-kg ball is traveling at 30.0° above the positive x-axis, while the 3.00-kg ball has a speed of 4.00 m/s. Determine the direction the 3.00-kg ball is moving relative to the positive x direction, and the speed of the 2.00-kg ball.
A billiard ball is moving in the x-direction at 30.0 cm/s and strikes another billiard ball moving in the y-direction at 40.0 cm/s. As a result of the collision, the first ball moves at 50.0 cm/s, and the second ball stops. What is the change in kinetic energy of the system as a result of the collision?
The drawing shows a collision between two pucks on an air-hockey table. Puck A has a mass of 0.0250 kg and is moving along the x axis with a velocity of +4.74 m/s. It makes a collision with puck B, which has a mass of 0,0500 kg and is initially at rest. The collision is not head-on. After the collision, the two pucks fly apart with the angles shown in the drawing. Find the speed of (a) puck A and (b) puck B.
A hockey puck moving at 0.460 m/s collides with another puck that was at rest. The pucks have equal mass. The first puER is deflected 37.0° to the right and moves off at 0.360 m/s. What is the speed of the second puck after the collision? m/s
One object is at rest, and another is moving. The two collide in a one-dimensional, completely inelastic collision. In other words, they stick together after the collision and move off with a common velocity. Momentum is conserved. The speed of the object that is moving initially is 29 m/s. The masses of the two objects are 2.8 and 8.8 kg. Determine the final speed of the two-object system after the collision for the case (a) when the large-mass object is the one moving initially and the case (b) when the small-mass object is the one moving initially.
A 0.0101-kg bullet is fired straight up at a falling wooden block that has a mass of 4.08 kg. The bullet has a speed of 575 m/s when it strikes the block. The block originally was dropped from rest from the top of a building and had been falling for a time t when the colllision with the bullet occurs. As a result of the collision, the block (with the bullet in it) reverses direction, rises, and comes to momentary halt at the top of the building. Find the time t.
Two boxes make a perfectly elastic collision on a horizontal frictionless surface as shown in the figure. Box with mass m= 8.0 kg and speed of 4.50 m/s collides with box M. After the collision, box m recoils with a speed of 0.75 m/s. The boxes are in contact for 0.30 s. The magnitude of the average force on the 8.0 kg box, while the two blocks are in contact, is
Object 1 with a mass of 4.70 kg, moving right at a speed of 7.80 m/s along a frictionless surface, collides head-on with Object 2 with a mass of 3.30 kg moving left at a speed of 10.6 m/s. After the collision, the Object 1 is moving left at 2.40 m/s.
Two blocks of clay, one of mass 1.00 kg and one of mass 6.00 kg, undergo a completely inelastic collision. Before the collision one of the blocks is at rest and the other block is moving with kinetic energy 32.0 J. If the 6.00 kg block is initially at rest and the 1.00 kg block is moving, what is the initial speed of the 1.00 kg block?
A 92 kg boulder , moving at 5.0 m/s attempts to pass directly across the adit of a mine. Just as the boulder reaches the end of the adit, it was met head-on in midair by two 75 kg miners, both moving in the direction opposite the boulder. One is moving 2.0 m/s, the other at 3.0 m/s . They all become entangled as one mass. What is their velocity after the collision? 18. What is the momentum of a 18 kg object traveling at a constant velocity that has 295 J of kinetic energy?
A 4.04 kg sphere makes a perfectly inelastic collision with a second sphere that is initially at rest. The composite system moves with a speed equal to one-third the original speed of the 4.04 kg sphere. What is the mass of the second sphere?
Jack (mass 56.0 kg) is sliding due east with speed 8.00 m/s on the surface of a frozen pond. He collides with Jill (mass 49.0 kg), who is initially at rest. After the collision, Jack is traveling at 5.00 m/s in a direction 34.0 degrees north of east. Ignore friction. What is the magnitude of the Jill's velocity, after the collision, as she travels at an angle of 35.95 degrees south of east?
