how would I solve this? A positive gas ion with mass 1.66×10^−27 kg is traveling with speed 150m/s in the +x-direction when it collides head-on with a negative gas ion with mass 2.32×10^−27 kg traveling with speed 150m/s in the −x-direction. The ions stick together. What is the total kinetic energy of the two-ion system immediately after the collision
A 10.50-g bullet is fired into a stationary block of wood having mass m = 4.980 kg. The bullet imbeds into the block. The speed of the bullet-plus-wood combination immediately after the collision is 0.6090 m/s. What was the original speed of the bullet? (Express your answer with four significant figures.) O 289.449
A soccer ball of 4.40925 (2 kilosg) pounds moves to the right a speed of 0.5 m/s. Hits a 0.1102311 (0.05 kilosg) pounds tennis ball initially moving to the left at 2 m/s. The collision is elastic and takes place in one dimension, along the x axis. What is the approximate final speed of the tennis ball, vf,g?
Two solid iron spheres of masses m and 2m respectively, are suspended from two inextensible ropes of length l. We separate the ball of mass m from its equilibrium position at an angle α, keeping the string extended in the same plane. The mass is released and collides elastically with the sphere of mass 2m. The speed of the sphere sphere of mass m immediately after the collision is:
A 300 gg bird flying along at 6.2 m/sm/s sees a 8.0 gg insect heading straight toward it with a speed of 34 m/sm/s (as measured by an observer on the ground, not by the bird). The bird opens its mouth wide and enjoys a nice lunch. What is the bird's speed immediately after swallowing? Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.
A 13.8 kg block is sliding along a frictionless surface with a speed of 95.7 m/s. It collides with a second block of mass 93.1 kg. The second block is initially at rest. After the collision, the first block has rebounded with a speed of 26.1 m/s. If this collision is one dimensional, what is the speed in (m/s) of the second block after the collision?
A water molecule moving at 600.0 m/s collides head-on with an ethanol molecule moving at234.0 m/s. After the collision, the water molecules travelled at a speed of 595.0 m/s in theopposite to its original moving direction. Given that the molecular weight of ethanol is 2.56times heavier than water, what is the speed of the ethanol molecule after the collision?
Two objects, A and B, have the same mass move in an opposite direction and collide with each other. A moves east a speed of V and B move west at a speed of 2V. If the collision is perfectly elastic, then what is the velocity of both objects after the collision.

At the local radio controlled (RC) airfield, a 2.4 kg RC plane strikes a 1.2 kg aerial drone that is hovering stationary at an altitude of 9.6 m. Just after the collision, the two aircraft are stuck together and moving to the east at 9 m/s at an altitude of 9.6 m. What is the speed (in m/s) of the plane just prior to the collision?
In an Atwoods Machine lab with m1 = 0.1 and m2 = 0.13 observed acceleration is 1.20 m/s^2. Compare the value with the a(theoretical). During the momentum collision lab a 2.5kg mass moving with 2m/s hits a stationary 5kg mass. After the collision 2.5kg bounces back with 0.5m/s and 5kg mass moves with 1.2 m/s. Calculate Pi and Pf and compare using percent error. Does this experiment show conservation of momentum?
