A big boulder has a mass of 8.20t (metric tons) and rests at a coal mine site. The boulder is blown up with explosives into 3 parts, all the 3 parts move horizontally in the xy plane. The biggest part (mass 3.3 t) travels west at a speed of 3m/s. The second part (mass 2.7t) moves at 2m/s in a direction 25.0 degrees south of east. What is the speed and direction of the third boulder part?
The three blocks shown are identical. Blocks B and C are at rest when block B is hit by block A, which is moving with a velocity Va of 3 ft/s. After the impact, which is assumed to be perfectly plastic (e= 0), the velocity of blocks A and B decreases due to friction, while block C picks up speed, until all three blocks are moving with the same velocity v . Knowing that the coefficient of kinetic friction between all surfaces is μk= 0.20, determine (a) the time required for the three blocks to reach the same velocity, (b) the total distance traveled by each block during that time.
Particle 1 is subjected to an acceleration a = -kv, particle 2 is subjected to a = -kt, and particle 3 is subjected to a = -ks. All three particles start at the origins=0 with an initial velocity vo = 11.5 m/s at time t = 0, and the magnitude of k is 0.10 for all three particles (note that the units of k vary from case to case). Plot the position, velocity, and acceleration versus time for each particle over the range 0≤t≤ 10 s. After you have the plots, answer the questions.

During a baseball game, a baseball is struck, at ground level, by a batter. The ball leaves the baseball bat with an initial speed v0 = 41.7 m/s at an angle theta = 40.5 degrees above the horizontal. Let the origin of the Cartesian coordinate system be the ball's position the instant it leaves the bat. Ignore air resistence throughout this problem. Enter an expression in terms of v0, theta, and g for the time it takes the ball to travel to its maximum veertical height.
Three identical small spheres, each of weight 2 lb, can slide freely on a horizontal frictionless surface. Spheres B and C are connected by a light rod and are at rest in the position shown when sphere B is struck squarely by sphere A which is moving to the right with a velocity v0 = (8 ft/s)i. Knowing that θ= 45° and that the velocities of spheres A and B immediately after the impact are vA = 0 and vB = (6 ft/s)i + (vB)yj, determine (vB)y and the velocity of C immediately after impact.
