Anthony is just relaxing since its summer vacation and actually put on some weight too and is now 90 kg. He decides to hit up Lake Thunderbird in his 40 kg boat and chill. Anthony reaches the center of the lake and stops moving and then decides to start fishing. He starts to fish but accidentally threw the 10kg pole at 5 m/s horizontally away from him. Suddenly, the boat starts moving. What is the velocity (magnitude and direction) of Anthony and the boat if the water really doesn’t have much friction with the boat?
A 10-m-long glider with a mass of 680 kg (including the passengers) is gliding horizontally through the air at 20 m/s when a 60 kg skydiver drops out by releasing his grip on the glider. What is the glider's speed just after the skydiver lets go?
5. The figure shows three balls of clay moving on a frictionless horizontal surface just before a collision. The three collide simultaneously and stick together. Find the speed and direction of the blob of clay after the collision. Draw the blob after the collision and show its velocity vector. 40 g 45° 4.0 m/s 3.0 m/s 30 g 2.0 m/s 20 g
Jerry, the mouse, has managed to hack into the operating software of Mechano ( mM=2.80 kg), the evil robot cat. Jerry instructs Mechano to fire a projectile ( mp 2.00 x 10-2 kg) at Tom the cat. = Answer the two parts below, using three sig figs. - Part A When the cannon fires, Mechano rolls backward with a recoil speed of 0.630 m/s. What is the speed of the projectile, Up, when it ermeges from the cannon? Part B - How much energy, AE, is released by the gunpowder that explodes inside the cannon when the projectile is fired?
= A small block of mass m. = 0.540 kg is released from rest at the top of a frictionless, curve-shaped wedge of mass m₂ 3.00 kg, which sits on a frictionless, horizontal surface as shown in Figure a. When the block leaves the wedge, its velocity is measured to be v₁ = 3.00 m/s to the right as shown in Figure b. m1 mi m2 ml? b (a) What is the velocity of the wedge after the block reaches the horizontal surface? m/s to the left (b) What is the height h of the wedge? m
A 57.0-g tennis ball is traveling straight at a player at 19.0 m/s. The player volleys the ball straight back at 22.0 m/s. If the ball remains in contact with the racket for 0.060 0 s, what average force acts on the ball? 18.05 N 20.9 N 38.95 N 2.85 N O 57 N
A 1500kg sport car is moving westbound at 20m/s on a level road when it collided with a 4000kg truck driving east on the same road at 15m/s. The two vehicles remain locked together after the collision. a)what are is the magnitude of the velocity of the two vehicles just after the collision?
The Hulk (200kg of pure angry muscle)collides head-on with a truck (2500kg). If the Hulk was running at 10.0m/s and the truck was moving at 15.0 m/s in the opposite direction, after they stick together, what is their speed (in m/s)? Either the Hulk or the truck needs a negative initial velocity.
Kyle, a 95.0 kg football player, leaps straight up into the air (with no horizontal velocity) to catch a pass. He catches the 0.430 kg ball precisely at the peak of his jump, when he is 0.538 meters off the ground. He hits the ground 0.0333 metersaway from where he leapt. If the ball was moving horizontally when it was caught, how fast was the ball traveling? ball's speed: ? m/s
2. A 62 kg student stands on a 36 kg cart that is free to move in any direction. The cart and student are moving together with a velocity of 2.7 m/s [S]. The student then starts to walk so that her velocity is 3.1m/s [ E25oN] relative to the floor. Calculate the new velocity of the cart.
A 180-g billiard ball is shot toward an identical ball at velocity vi = 6.90 m/s. The identical ball is initially at rest. After the balls hit, one of them travels with velocity v1, f = (1.80 + 2.22) m/s. What is the velocity of the second ball after the impact? Ignore effects of friction during this process. (Express your answer in vector form.) v2, f = m/s
2. In a scifi movie about astronauts on a space station, one of the astronaut's safety line is cut while on a space walk. The astronaut, who 10 meters from the shuttle and is moving 0.1 m/s away from it, finds that the suit's thruster pack has also been damaged and no longer works and that only 30 seconds of air remains. To get back to the shuttle, the astronaut unstraps a 10-kg tool kit and throws it away with a speed of 5 m/s. In the scene, the astronaut, who has a mass of 100 kg without the toolkit, survives. Is this reasonable?
