Q37. Daddy is standing holding a 0.058-kg tennis ball. Sophia is standing on her picnic table holding a 0.03-kg ball ofpurple Play-Doh. They are both 2 meters high. Daddy and Sophia want to create a physics problem, so they decide tothrow the objects at each other. The tennis ball has a velocity of 5 m/s to the right and the Play-Doh has a velocity of 3m/s to the left. After 0.5 seconds the objects collide head-on and stick together. Using the conservation of momentumand your knowledge of kinematics, determine the displacement in the horizontal (Ax) of the system after the collision. Inother words, after the collision, where will the ball/Play-Doh land relative to the point of the collision?

First we find the velocity of the body after collision when both stick together from conservation…

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?
